The British Oceanographic Data Centre (BODC) is the UK’s National Oceanographic Data Centre (NODC) and forms part of the Natural Environment Research Council’s (NERC) Environmental Data Service (EDS) - https://nerc.ukri.org/research/sites/environmental-data-service-eds/

We provide open access to over 100,000 datasets while managing and delivering in excess of 450 different oceanographic variables. BODC provides the user community with a centralised data ingestion-discovery-delivery service...

The Quantum Technology Centre cleanrooms, 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...

The Environmental Information Data Centre (EIDC) is part of the Natural Environment Research Council's (NERC) Environmental Data Service and is hosted by the UK Centre for Ecology & Hydrology (UKCEH). We manage nationally-important datasets concerned with the terrestrial and freshwater sciences.

Our staff help researchers in ensuring that the data they produce are curated appropriately for the long-term, guaranteeing their security, accessibility and re-usability for the user community.

LiMRIC has a Siemens Prisma 3T MR scanner, underpinned by the infrastructure and academic/technical expertise to support a wide range of human MR-based research, including neuroimaging, cardiac and body imaging, musculoskeletal MRI and MR spectroscopy.  

LiMRIC is available to both internal users and NHS/commercial partners, and can offer...

ORE Catapult has appointed the Universities of Strathclyde and Manchester to form the Electrical Infrastructure Research Hub.

The Hub will accelerate research and development activities, tackling the challenge of making the UK’s electrical infrastructure systems future-proof to meet the needs of the growing offshore wind, wave and tidal industries.

With a five-year investment of around £700k from ORE Catapult, and £2.4m match funding from its university partners, the Hub will address a...

With most global research becoming computational in some way, our cluster at the University of Bradford offers a HPC Service to streamline largescale numerical modelling, machine learning and big data. From researchers to business enterprise, the HPC Service enables health data analytics, fluid dynamic modelling, digital reconstruction, and expansive archaeological initiatives as well as providing support to lower the technical bar of entry to HPC.

Overview

• 300 processors in total with...

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...

AMRC Cymru was opened in November 2019, backed by a £20m investment from Welsh Government, and is the first High Value Manufacturing (HVM) Catapult centre in Wales.

AMRC Cymru operates a 2,000 square metre open access research area with Airbus the first major tenant with a platform to develop their next generation wing technologies aligned to its ‘Wing of Tomorrow’ programme.

Situated in the Deeside Enterprise Zone the facility will focus on advanced manufacturing sectors including...

The Natural Environment Research Council  (NERC) Environmental Data Service (EDS) provides a focal point for NERC's scientific data and information.   The EDS consists of a network of environmental data centres.  These centres hold data covering all aspects of environmental science, gathered from environmental scientists working in the UK and around the world. The EDS are responsible for maintaining environmental data and making them available to all users, not just NERC researchers but others...
