New quantum technology research hub led by UCL in collaboration with ÌÇÐÄTV researchers has been launched
A major new quantum technology research hub which is being led by researchers from University College London (UCL) and the University of Cambridge has been launched in collaboration with researchers from the University of ÌÇÐÄTV.
Work commenced to host the 1.2 GHz NMR spectrometer
In May, building work has begun in preparation for the UK’s first 1.2 GHz NMR spectrometer. The spectrometer is funded by the UK Research and Innovation (UKRI) and will be provided by Bruker, with some additional MAS probes from Phoenix.
Professor Don Pollacco awarded £3 million European Research Council Grant
Congratulations to Professor Don Pollacco who has just been awarded £3 million from the ERC to develop a ‘digital telescope’ that will be capable of producing a highly sensitive continuous movie of the night sky.
University of ÌÇÐÄTV has been awarded £11m to train PhD students in computational modelling
The Centre for Doctoral Training in Modelling of Heterogeneous Systems
(HetSys II), led by Professor James Kermode from the School of
Engineering, Dr Livia Bartok-Partay from Chemistry and Professor
Nicholas Hine from Physics, will train a new generation of scientists
in computational modelling. It spans seven departments and three
university research centres forming a national centre of excellence in
computational simulation, providing world class opportunities in the
West Midlands.
