UCL has decided to use this year's Grant Balance award in conjunction with the Shaping Capability: Bridging the Gaps element of the 2010 EPSRC Additional Sponsorship award. We have a particular strategic emphasis on cross-disciplinary research at the moment, seeking to realise the benefits of UCL's broad spectrum of research excellence. The interface between EPSRC's remit and medical research is already large, fairly effectively networked, and well-supported, hence we have chosen to focus this funding on other interfaces that we feel are more in need of this kind of "start up" funding.The areas selected for this year's Bridging the Gaps activities are: Digital Humanities, Algae Biotechnology, Sustainable Cities, and Venture Physical Sciences.Within Digital Humanities, we will be building on the collaborations formed through our newly established Centre for Digital Humanities and supporting collaborative activities on: The Future of Reading; Text-Mining and Visualisation; and Archaeology, Museums and Imaging.Within Algae Biotechnology, we will build upon the activities of an existing cross-disciplinary collaboration Algae@UCL, and in particular looking to link some of the emerging algae-based approaches to biotechnology to issues and relationships identified through the IMRC in Bioprocessing, evolving that research programme in wholly new directions.Within Sustainable Cities, we will be supporting a range of small cross-disciplinary projects identified through our annual call for UCL Grand Challenges small grants, and a two-day sandpit (and resulting projects) on "Big Data in the City" as a collaboration between the Sustainable Cities UCL Grand Challenge and the FuturICT FET Flagship activity. A research associate will be supported working to support community building, in particular around sustainable mobility, sustainable resources and architecture and retrofitting.Within Venture Physical Sciences, we will be supporting 3-4 highly adventurous Physical Sciences projects, looking to explore new avenues that cross existing divisions within Physical Sciences.

伦敦大学学院已决定使用今年的赠款平衡奖与塑造能力：弥合差距的2010年EPSRC额外赞助奖的元素。我们有一个跨学科研究的时刻，寻求实现UCL的广泛的研究卓越的好处特别战略重点。EPSRC的职权范围和医学研究之间的接口已经很大，相当有效的网络，并得到良好的支持，因此我们选择将这笔资金集中在我们认为更需要这种“启动”资金的其他接口上。数字人文，藻类生物技术，可持续发展的城市，和风险物理科学。在数字人文，我们将通过我们新成立的数字人文中心建立合作关系，并支持以下合作活动：阅读的未来;文本挖掘和可视化;和考古学，博物馆和成像。在藻类生物技术，我们将建立在现有的跨学科合作藻类@UCL的活动，特别是希望将一些新兴的藻类为基础的方法，生物技术的问题和关系，确定通过IMRC在生物处理，在可持续城市中，我们将支持一系列小型跨学科项目，这些项目是通过我们每年对UCL大挑战小额赠款的呼吁确定的，和为期两天的沙坑（以及由此产生的项目）关于“城市中的大数据”，作为可持续城市伦敦大学学院大挑战和FuturICT FET旗舰活动之间的合作。一名研究助理将获得支持，致力于支持社区建设，特别是围绕可持续交通，可持续资源和建筑以及改造。在风险物理科学领域，我们将支持3-4个高度冒险的物理科学项目，寻求探索跨越物理科学现有部门的新途径。
