American Fusion Inc. (OTC: AMFN) is bolstering its scientific and intellectual property base as it moves its Texatron Fusion Engine program into a more active testing phase. The company has appointed Dr. Noah D’Amico, a physicist and engineer at Texas Tech University, as a Strategic Advisor, and has filed six additional U.S. patent applications, bringing its total to 82.
Dr. D’Amico’s expertise includes nuclear diagnostics, neutron detection, radiation measurement, vacuum systems, and AI-assisted particle-track analysis. He continues his work at Texas Tech and BlankSlate Innovation while advising American Fusion. His appointment is expected to strengthen the diagnostics and engineering capabilities surrounding the Texatron platform.
American Fusion has begun testing its Texatron platform at Texas Tech University after completing initial laboratory preparations and verifying its remote ignition system. The next testing phase will examine subsystems including plasma and magnetic-field control, ignition, fuel delivery, and electronic components.
The expansion of the scientific team and IP portfolio comes as the company prepares additional evaluations at Texas Tech. The new patents are part of a broader strategy to protect and advance its fusion technology. The company’s focus on fusion energy aims to provide a sustainable and clean power source, which is critical for addressing global energy challenges.
Dr. D’Amico earned his Ph.D. in Physics from Texas Tech in 2026, with a dissertation that focused on advanced diagnostic techniques. His background in AI-based analysis of CR-39 nuclear particle tracks is particularly relevant to the company’s testing efforts.
