The breakthrough technologies of Nusano and the company’s rapid growth in Utah are the cover story of the 2025 edition of Biosphere magazine. Published by BioUtah, Biosphere profiles the companies shaping Utah’s life sciences economy.
From the article:
What sets Nusano apart is the power and flexibility of its proprietary radioisotope production platform. Radioisotopes, particularly medical radioisotopes, have
traditionally been made via irradiation of a target material with neutrons in a nuclear reactor, or with an accelerated proton beam. Today’s commercial particle accelerators generate relatively low currents and therefore low production yields —a major barrier to the mass production of isotopes. Nusano upends this paradigm.
…“I am fully confident that when the next round of history and physics textbooks are written, they will reference the Wasatch mountains and the innovations emerging from Nusano as generational achievements that transformed
modern life,” added [Nusano CEO Chris] Lowe. “We thrive on doing what has not been done. We carry Utah’s pioneering spirit with us every step of the way.”
