New head of Environment, Safety, and Health comes at a crucial time
Mike Bonkalski, the Princeton Plasma Physics Laboratory’s (PPPL) new head of Environment, Safety, and Health (ES&H), brings almost 30 years of experience at two national laboratories to the position that oversees health and safety at a crucial time for the Laboratory as it begins several major projects.
Bonkalski begins his new position in the midst of the curtailment of operations at PPPL during the coronavirus pandemic. Bonkalski is communicating remotely from 829 miles away in Geneva, Illinois, with his staff of 48 people in New Jersey.
