Other Detectors? What about all of the sensor work that is not directly sponsored by STFC? Photonics -- largely EPSRC - large but very fragmented community E-beam microscopy – largely industry Security – DSTL – MoD – not very amenable to open networking ERDIT meeting Athens 11/12 April 2016

Funding Possibilities STFC provides funding to create new multidisciplinary research communities at the STFC-Global Challenge interface which are focused on addressing user needs, including those of Government departments, Government agencies, industry and other academic communities. Three types of Networks are funded, depending on the stage of development of the community: Standard Network, Network+ and Extended Network+. The aims of Standard Networks are to: Support interactions between STFC-funded researchers and appropriate science, technology, industry and end-user groups to build interdisciplinary communities at the interface between STFC science and Global Challenge areas Facilitate knowledge sharing and identify priority user-needs that STFC science could have a role in addressing Create new multidisciplinary project teams to develop proposals to seek funding for projects addressing the Global Challenges Network+ Demonstrate STFC-funded capability to address Global Challenges and de-risking of concepts to facilitate applications for next-stage funding Extended Network+ Maximise the impact of earlier Standard Network or Network+ activities Further demonstrate STFC-funded capability to address Global Challenges and de-risking of concepts to facilitate applications for next-stage funding. ERDIT meeting Athens 11/12 April 2016

NuSec Introducing the Nuclear Security Sciences Network, ‘NuSec’ NuSec is a new STFC-funded network, supported through the STFC Global Challenge Networks programme, and led by the University of Surrey. The aims of the Network are to develop collaboration between the academic, industrial and defence sectors in the area of nuclear security To encourage translational research and technology development, and to address end-user challenges related to nuclear security To undertake challenge-led proof of concept and pilot studies, eg. as supported by £60k of AWE Pilot Study funding to the network. To coordinate and support applications for third party funding, eg. RCUK, H2020, CDE, InnovateUK, AWE Enhanced Detection programme, US DNDO/DTRA. ERDIT meeting Athens 11/12 April 2016

Political Science Funded Value: £223,260 – additional support from AWE £60,000 Funded Period: Jan 16 - Dec 18 Funder: STFC Project Status: Active Project Category: Research Grant Project Reference: ST/N002431/1 Principal Investigator: Paul Jonathan Sellin Research Subject: Pol. sci. & internat. studies (80%) Science and Technology Studies (20%) Research Topic: Science and Technology Studies (20%) Security Studies (80%) ERDIT meeting Athens 11/12 April 2016

Goals The network aims to promote collaboration and research, principally through technical meetings and information dissemination. Network Meetings are our main route to deliver the network objectives to all members: Technology Workshops – encouraging translational R&D, focussed on specific technical themes, bringing together new research collaborations Challenge Meetings – to develop cross-disciplinary solutions to address end-user challenges Staff/Student secondments – to encourage networking and collaboration. This is still being developed, watch this space… ERDIT meeting Athens 11/12 April 2016
