An expert in thermal-hydraulic models for accident analysis, with the increase of work for the NET project and then for ITER, she began a series of collaborations with universities (e.g. Pisa, Rome La Sapienza, Polytechnic of Turin, Rome Tor Vergata) and research centers (e.g. CRE-ENEL, ENEA-Bologna and ENEA-Casaccia, INL, CEA, UKAEA, and FZK (now KIT)), and as a fusion safety expert for some activities with the IAEA. She followed and supported the training of several young engineers and PhD students. EUROfusion conveys sincere condolences to all her family. 🔗 https://euro-fusion.org/related/in-memory-of-maria-teresa-porfiri/
