> Loureiro, who joined MIT in 2016, was named last year to lead MIT’s Plasma Science and Fusion Center, where he aimed to advance clean energy technology and other research. The center, one of the school’s largest labs, had more than 250 people working across seven buildings when he took the helm. IF it was a conspiracy, I'd speculate that he had integrity and therefore he may have posed a significant risk to a massive fusion research funding grift. I'm biased, as I believe many of these technologies that nobody can legitimately explain are fraudulent.
