The Physical Sciences Data-science Service is a National Research Facility which brings together tools and resources for UK researchers in physical sciences, including chemistry, crystallography, materials and related fields. It provides access to web-based data services are which are freely accessible for academic users from the UK.

New 'omic' technologies have transformed biology by allowing scientists to read genomes (genomics) and to measure the amount of proteins (proteomics) or other chemicals (metabolomics) within living cells and organisms. Tiny amounts of DNA can be collected from the environment (environmental DNA, eDNA) to measure biodiversity and monitor the health of our soils, rivers and seas. This creates a tremendous opportunity to understand the diversity of different individuals and species within the...

BREATHE – The Health Research Hub for Respiratory Health will enable high quality research and cutting-edge innovation to improve the lives of people living with respiratory conditions, such as asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD).

Everyone in the UK will have a respiratory illness at some point in their life. We have the best datasets in the world – which should be used to improve respiratory health – but these are currently very difficult to find, access and use.

The Cambridge Immunology Network is a  community for immunologists working in and around Cambridge. It builds on a rich tradition of immunological research in Cambridge, and brings together groups whose work ranges from discovery of the basic molecular mechanisms underpinning the immune response through to applications relevant to the clinic, to industry and to global health. Working across disciplines, schools, institutes and departments we can tackle bigger problems and answer more fundamental...

The MTC was established in 2010 as an independent Research & Technology Organisation (RTO). Its primary focus is to ensure that great ideas become reality and don’t fall into the manufacturing abyss known as the ‘valley of death’.

It represents one of the largest public sector investments in UK manufacturing and, after four years of planning and a 16-month build, the facility opened at Ansty Park in Coventry at the end of 2011. It exists to prove innovative manufacturing processes and...

The Adolescent Data Platform (ADP) for Mental Health Research brings together a huge range of information relating to the mental health of young people aged 10-24 from across the UK.

With core funding from mental health research charity MQ, we provide an unprecedented resource for researchers and policy-makers to improve understanding of mental illness in young people, address historical service challenges, and tackle inequalities in mental health.

The platform, which launched in 2018...

Newcastle University’s new Biological Engineering: Wastewater Innovation at Scale (BEWISe) facility is the first of its type in Europe in large-scale wastewater treatment research using bacteria.  It is an international centre of research excellence and experimentation for wastewater management technology.

The facility is based at Northumbrian Water’s sewage treatment plant at Birtley, near Gateshead.  It will play a key role in improving how sewage is treated. It will do this by speeding up...

Research Data Scotland will provide a service for accessing public sector datasets that have the potential to save money time and lives.

It will offer safe, secure and cost effective access to data for research, innovation and investment by enabling its users to deliver insight and understanding that will help create a more successful country through increased wellbeing, sustainable and inclusive economic growth, and improving the health of the nation.

We will work collaboratively with...
