On March 28, 2014, the Board of Directors (the “Board”) of US Nuclear Corp. (the “Company”) elected Dr. Gerald Entine to serve as a member of the Board, effective immediately.
Dr. Entine, age 70, is the founder and former majority stockholder of RMD, Inc and RMD Instruments, LLC, which was sold to Dynasil Corporation in 2008. He still retains a substantial interest in Dynasil. He has more than 40 years of experience in both applied and basic scientific research in optics, nuclear sensors and instrumentation and related physics or biophysics-based technologies.
Dr. Entine received his B.Sc. and M.A. in Physics from the University of Pennsylvania. He then received his Ph.D. in physics from the University of California at Berkeley under the direction of two Nobel Laureates: Dr. Melvin Calvin and Dr. Owen Chamberlain. Dr. Entine then joined Tyco Laboratories, a high technology research center in Boston, and conducted studies in semiconductor sensors until 1974, when he founded RMD with technology that RMD acquired from Tyco.
Dr. Entine continues to be involved in research, and has been the Principal Investigator on over a hundred research contracts and grants funded privately and by government. His publications include works in Physics and Instrumentation (48), Basic Chemistry (22), and Medicine & Biophysics (51). Dr. Entine retired from his position as Division Manager of Radiation Monitoring Devices in 2011, at which time the division had a staff of about 90 of which half had Ph.D.'s. He now consults for several technical firms.
In connection with his election to the Board, Dr. Entine will be granted a restricted stock award on December 31, 2014 covering 10,000 shares of the Company’s common stock.
Dr. Entine also executed the Company’s standard form of indemnification agreement filed as an exhibit to this 8-K.
