Liverpool IPS Fellowship Extension

科学对社会的影响和作用是通过所开发的有形设备或技术来衡量的。在我们生活的世界里，存在着非常真实和直接的挑战，这些挑战影响着我们的生活结构。这就是为什么大学投资于斯蒂芬森可再生能源研究所等项目，以及为什么物理系与大学新材料创新工厂（MIF）的化学系密切合作的原因。大学还成功地建立了“传感器城市”，这是一个大学企业区的倡议，最近开始运作。在此提议的IPS奖学金扩展将在这些基础上提供更多的工业学生，通过适当的途径，如STFC创新影响账户（IAA）、mini-IPS或KTP项目，使合作想法“注入”，并促进潜在的员工与工业合作者的交流。大学正处于快速扩张时期，我们期望在这种环境下，研究员将继续在吸引新资金方面发挥核心作用。IPS研究员将协调物理系内核物理、粒子物理和加速器科学的知识交流战略。利物浦大学物理系是仅有的三个国家培训机构之一，为新的现代化科学职业（MSC）医学物理学硕士提供培训，由NHS资助。这是一次非常成功的竞标，利物浦在激烈的竞争中排名第一。该硕士课程是与皇家利物浦大学医院NHS信托，克拉特布里奇癌症中心（CCC）和利物浦大学临床工程合作提供的。学员来自英国各地。这为在医疗保健行业建立合作研究和持续专业发展（CPD）伙伴关系提供了独特的机会。该研究员将协调这些工作，并将帮助在利物浦大学内建立一个新的医学物理研究所，这是利物浦大学目前规划的一个战略目标。该研究员将协助协调传感器技术以及相关仪器和技术的开发，这些技术存在于研究小组中。该研究员将通过展示STFC科学活动的全面性，帮助巩固与伙伴组织的现有关系。将确定资助研发的新机会，并与新公司建立关系。利物浦的科学家和工程师们正在共同努力，作为一个专注于能源研究的新大学研究所的一部分。斯蒂芬森研究所正在开发清洁和可持续的能源技术，包括制氢和储存、太阳能收集、风能和海洋能以及核聚变技术。该研究所正在建立包括决策者和管理人员在内的专家网络，以突出全球能源和可持续性问题。与远东能源供应商建立联系，并试图吸引利物浦大学能源校区的大笔投资，我们认为这将是该研究员的重要作用。IPS研究员将充分参与这一进程，确保STFC科学的机会得到充分利用。利物浦大学工程系、电气工程系和物理系正在组建一个核工程联盟，该联盟将最大限度地利用自主系统、传感器和虚拟工程方面的机构专业知识。IPS研究员将帮助协调联盟与外部利益相关者组织（如国家核实验室（NNL）和塞拉菲尔德有限公司）之间的关系。

The impact and effect of science in society is measured by the tangible devices or techniques that are developed. We live in a world where there are very real and immediate challenges that affect the fabric of our lives. This is why the University has invested in programmes like the Stephenson Institute for Renewable Energy and why Physics is working closely with the Department of Chemistry in the University's new Materials Innovation Factory (MIF). The University was also successful in establishing "Sensor City", a University Enterprise Zone initiative which recently opened its doors. The IPS Fellowship extension proposed here will build on these foundations to deliver increased numbers of industrial studentships, enable "pump priming" of collaborative ideas through appropriate routes such as the STFC Innovation Impact Account (IAA), mini-IPS or KTP projects and will facilitate potential staff exchanges with industrial collaborators. The University is in a period of rapid expansion and we expect the fellow will continue to play a central role in attracting new funds in this environment. The IPS Fellow will coordinate the knowledge exchange strategy for Nuclear Physics, Particle Physics and Accelerator Science within the Department of Physics.Healthcare The University of Liverpool, Department of Physics is one of only three national training providers for the new Modernising Scientific Careers (MSC) Medical Physics MSc, funded by the NHS. This was a highly successful bid, with Liverpool being ranked first against stiff competition. This MSc is delivered in collaboration with the Royal Liverpool University Hospital NHS Trust, the Clatterbridge Cancer Centre (CCC) and Clinical Engineering with the University of Liverpool. The trainees come from throughout the UK. This provides a unique opportunity to build collaborative research and Continuing Professional Development (CPD) partnerships within the Healthcare sector. The fellow will coordinate these efforts and will help establish a new Medical Physics research institute within the University of Liverpool, which is a strategic goal of the University in its current planning. SecurityThe Fellow will help coordinate the exploitation of the sensor technology and associated instrumentation and techniques that exists within the research groups. The fellow will help consolidate existing relationships with partner organisations by showcasing the full breadth of STFC science activity. New opportunities for funding R+D will be identified together with establishing relationships with new companies.Liverpool scientists and engineers are working together as part of a new University Institute focused on research into energy. The Stephenson Institute is developing clean and sustainable energy technologies including hydrogen generation and storage, solar harvesting, wind and marine energy and fusion technology. The institute is in the process of developing expert networks, including policy-makers and management, to highlight global energy and sustainability issues. Making links with far eastern energy providers and attempting to attract a large investment from the University of Liverpool Energy campus we believe will be an important role of the fellow. The IPS Fellow will be fully engaged in this process, ensuring the opportunities for STFC science are fully exploited. The University of Liverpool Engineering, Electrical Engineering and Physics Departments are in the process of forming a Nuclear Engineering alliance which will maximise the exploitation of institutional expertise in autonomous systems, sensors and virtual engineering. The IPS Fellow will help coordinate the relationship between the alliance and external stakeholder organisations such as the National Nuclear Laboratory (NNL) and Sellafield Ltd.
