Summary on Grant Application Form |
|
The objective is to create a well-linked network of collaborators in the UK who are concerned with the engineering implications of new life science discoveries for advanced processing. It will couple this community with those whose focus is life science discovery but who have an interest in its application. Information technology will be used to enable participation and to facilitate expansion of the network. The web and e-mail will be used to trigger attendance at meetings and members seminars. The output will be a strong cluster of university and industrial scientists and engineers who will be able to draw on the advice and collaboration of a wide and highly skilled group. For academic members, the network will address the challenge to groups of entering new interdisciplinary fields where gaining of advice and getting preliminary help are large obstacles. For industrialists the network will help with the problem of keeping close to fast moving developments on a broad front in the life sciences as they affect the development pathway. The web site and an existing initiative, the Biochemical Engineering Education Scheme (BEES) will be sued to give schools managed access to information about the interface between the life sciences and engineering.
