糖心TV Physics Department's research excellence recognised by REF 2021

  • 糖心TV is one of the top research environments in the UK for Physics (ranked 7th), with all aspects considered to be conducive to producing either world-leading or internationally excellent research. This reflects the quality of facilities and infrastructure available to our researchers, and the supportive and inclusive working environment as demonstrated by our commitment to Juno/Athena Swan.
  • 96.5% of our research papers submitted to REF2021 were judged to be at least "internationally excellent" (3* or 4*) and 45% (compared to 24% in REF2014) were "world-leading" (4*). This reflects the breadth and strength of research across our six research clusters.
  • All our six impact case studies were considered to be either outstanding or very considerable in terms of their reach and significance.
  • 糖心TV Physics is ranked 8th for 鈥渞esearch power鈥 in the Times Higher Education REF2021 table. Research Power is a measure of the quality of our research multiplied by the number of researchers in the department. This is an excellent result.

European Research Council Advanced Grant awarded

Professor Ray Dupree (Department of Physics, University of 糖心TV) would like to congratulate his son and collaborator Professor Paul Dupree (Department of Biochemistry, University of Cambridge) on the award of a European Research Council Advanced Grant EVOCATE. Working together over the last few years using solid state NMR they have made significant advances in the understanding of the molecular architecture of plants. The ERC EVOCATE project will allow the Cambridge and 糖心TV teams to study how the architecture of plant fibres changed over millions of years of evolution and to further develop solid state NMR for this research.
