Population Research UK

PRUK is a resource being established by the Economic and Social Research Council (ESRC) and the Medical Research Council (MRC) to maximise the use, innovation and benefit from the UK's rich collection of longitudinal population studies (LPS) across social and economic, and biomedical science.

The goal of PRUK is to enable a greater understanding of the complex interplay between the biological, behavioural, social, economic and environmental determinants that...

The NERC Field Spectroscopy Facility maintains and provides a pool of state-of-the-art spectroscopy instruments for use by the UK research community. We are also develop and deliver training courses, development and improve EO instrumentation and work with national bodies in support of calibration/validation exercises. 

Our equipment pool contains field spectrometers; logging and field portable sunphotometers; UAV sensors including a hyperspectral imager with LiDAR, Sentinel 2/WorldView...

The Quantum Computing and Simulation Hub (aka QCS Hub) is a collaboration between 17 UK universities and is one of four hubs within the UK National Quantum Technologies Programme.

Working with an extensive network of academic, industrial and governmental partners, we are focused on the critical research challenges for quantum computing, across a broad range of hardware and software disciplines.

As well as addressing the technical challenges in providing quantum computing and simulation at...

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...

The Quantum Technology Centre, based in Lancaster University’s Physics Department, establish a significant technology presence in the Northwest. Our world class facilities include a class 100 and two class 1000 clean rooms housing state-of-the-art nanofabrication equipment. The facilities provide the possibility to run multi-step nanofabrication processes to build electronic, photonic and nanomechanical devices and structures with a feature size as small as 10 nm. It allows processing of metals...

The Wales Asthma Observatory (WAO) is a platform for asthma research and surveillance.

It was developed to explore what is happening to patients with asthma in Wales and to examine this longitudinally in order to support improvements in the quality of treatment and care provided to patients and to also inform health service planning and clinical research.

The WAO includes a cumulative cohort of asthma patients covering most of Wales, totalling over 470,000 people with ever-diagnosed and...

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...

We provide large-scale computing resources to help University of Bradford scientists and collaborators carry out computational and data intensive research across all fields.  

As cutting-edge research becomes increasingly computational, the High-Performance Computing (HPC) Service supports University of Bradford researchers to take research to the next level. Whether with academic collaborators or industry partners, through consultancy or contract research, we accelerate computationally...

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.

Peopl...

CPI acts as a catalyst bringing together academia, businesses, government and investors to translate bright ideas and research into the marketplace.
