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.

科学在社会中的影响和作用是通过所开发的有形设备或技术来衡量的。我们生活在一个存在着影响我们生活结构的非常真实的和紧迫的挑战的世界。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，以及为什么物理学与大学新材料创新工厂（MIF）的化学系密切合作。大学还成功地建立了“传感器城市”，这是一个大学企业区倡议，最近开放了大门。这里提议的IPS奖学金扩展将建立在这些基础之上，以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），迷你IPS或KTP项目，实现合作想法的“泵启动”，并将促进与工业合作者的潜在工作人员交流。该大学正处于快速扩张时期，我们预计该研究员将继续在这种环境下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。医疗保健利物浦大学物理系是英国仅有的三个国家培训机构之一，为新的现代化科学职业（MSC）医学物理理学硕士提供培训。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。该硕士课程与皇家利物浦大学医院NHS信托基金、Clatterbridge癌症中心（CCC）和利物浦大学临床工程合作提供。学员来自英国各地。这提供了一个独特的机会，在医疗保健行业内建立合作研究和持续专业发展（CPD）伙伴关系。该研究员将协调这些努力，并将帮助在利物浦大学内建立一个新的医学物理研究所，这是该大学目前规划的一个战略目标。安全研究员将帮助协调传感器技术和相关仪器的开发以及研究小组内部存在的技术。该研究员将通过展示STFC科学活动的全部范围来帮助巩固与合作伙伴组织的现有关系。新的研发资金的机会将与新的公司建立关系。利物浦的科学家和工程师正在共同努力，作为一个新的大学研究所的一部分，专注于能源研究。斯蒂芬森研究所正在开发清洁和可持续的能源技术，包括氢的生产和储存，太阳能收集，风能和海洋能源以及聚变技术。该研究所正在发展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量投资，我们相信这将是该研究员的一个重要角色。IPS研究员将充分参与这一进程，确保充分利用STFC科学的机会。利物浦大学工程、电气工程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治系统、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之间的关系，如国家核实验室（NNL）和塞拉菲尔德有限公司。
