DTP 2021 The Rosalind Franklin Institute

富兰克林是一个由英国政府建立的具有慈善地位的新独立研究机构，旨在汇集来自不同领域（学术，工业，设施）的跨学科专业知识，以彻底改变对生活的成像和理解。富兰克林的重点是利用物理科学在成像技术方面取得突破性进展。我们的目标是在五个维度上提高对人类细胞的理解；空间（x,y, z），时间和化学。我们的核心科学路线图是由科学领导团队根据更广泛的社区的意见制定的。我们已经获得了同行评审的主要资金，以彻底改变电子断层扫描。我们的新大楼将于2021年第一季度开放，我们将继续招聘优秀的早期职业调查员和其他高级职位。我们已经在生物分子化学、电子成像和抗击covid - 19方面取得了重要突破。富兰克林与仪器制造商、制药公司和生物技术部门有着密切的联系。我们的目标是使富兰克林成为英国培养有抱负和创造性的物理和生命科学家的最佳场所。我们的学生项目有一个最重要的目标：培养一批科学家，他们将进入工业、大型设施或学术界，推动英国的生产力。为了实现这一目标，我们设计了一个完全不同的项目。我们是一个新的研究所，可以从其他地方的成功和失败中学习。我们的学生将是富兰克林的学生，大部分时间都在新楼里度过，每个人都至少有一个外部学术合作者，他们的学位将来自英国各地。我们希望我们的大多数学生都有与工业有关的项目。学生们将在整个英国与富兰克林的科学建立联系，确保国家利益。学生在富兰克林的经历将以卓越的科学、技术、培训和指导为标志。学生将学习跨学科项目，在富兰克林的主题工作，建立全球重要技术的专业知识，与富兰克林的资深科学家和基于合作伙伴大学的奖励合作者合作。这种合作的特点是独特的，为学生和合作机构提供了极好的机会。学位将通过富兰克林成员和合作机构的全国网络授予，合作学者作为共同导师。联合监督员将与富兰克林监督员一起参加监督小组，确保最高质量的指导。富兰克林培训协调员将作为牧师联络点，并将管理安排旅行、额外培训、网络和与授予大学的合同安排。我们所有的学生都将成为当地大学学院的“富兰克林社会中心”的成员。社交中心将确保无论学生是在阿伯丁还是埃克塞特注册，他们都可以加入相同的运动队，或享受相同的社交活动和网络。富兰克林的社交中心确保了哈维尔校园的性质——一个主要的工业基地，很少有全日制学生，不会对学生造成不利，并使他们能够体验到“两全其美”。我们将通过合作大学和国家媒体宣传项目，并通过主要期刊进一步传播。学生将直接申请富兰克林大学。合作者、导师和共同导师将仅根据科学价值、适合拟议的联合项目和与学生匹配来选择。这将由富兰克林奖学金委员会（与外部独立专家成员）进行评估。申请和合作伙伴信息将在www.rfi.ac.uk/franklinfutures上提供

The Franklin is a new independent research institute with charitable status, established by the UK government to bring together expertise across disciplines, from different sectors (academic, industry, facility) to revolutionise the imaging and understanding of life.The Franklin focus is in harnessing physical science to make disruptive advances in imaging technology. Our goal is to deliver a factor of ten improvement in understanding a human cell across five dimensions; space (x,y, z), time and chemistry. Our core science road-maps have been developed by the science leadership team, with input from the wider community. We have secured major peer-reviewed funding to revolutionise electron tomography. Our new building opens Q1 2021 and we are continuing recruitment of outstanding early career investigators and additional senior posts.We have already made important breakthroughs in biomolecule chemistry, in electron imaging and in the fight against Covid19. The Franklin has strong links to instrument manufacturers, pharma and the biotech sector. Our ambition is to establish The Franklin as the best place in the UK for aspiring and creative physical and life scientists to train. Our studentship program has been fashioned with one overriding goal: to produce a cohort of scientists who will go into industry, large facilities or academia and drive up UK productivity.Embracing this goal has led us to devise a radically different program. We are a new Institute with the benefit of learning from successes and failures elsewhere. Our students will be Franklin students spending the vast majority of their time in the new building, each will have at least one outside academic collaborator and their degree awards will come from across the UK. We expect most of our students to have projects with Industry. Thestudents will form links across the whole UK to the science inside The Franklin, ensuring national benefits.The student experience at The Franklin will be marked by excellence in science, technology, training and mentorship. Students will study interdisciplinary projects, working across the themes at The Franklin, building expertise in globally important technologies, in collaboration with senior scientists at The Franklin and an awarding collaborator based at a partner University.This collaborative feature is distinctive and provides excellent opportunities for both students and collaborating institutes. Degrees will be awarded through the national network of Franklin members and collaborating Institutes, with the collaborating academic as a co-supervisor. The co-supervisor will sit on supervisory panels alongside the Franklin supervisors ensuring the highest quality guidance.The Franklin training coordinator will act as a pastoral contact point, and will manage arrangements for travel, additional training, networking and contract arrangements with awarding Universities. All our students will be members of the local 'Franklin social hub' at a college of a local University. The social hub will ensure that, whether a student is registered at Aberdeen or Exeter, they can join the same sports teams, or enjoy the same social activities and networks. The Franklin social hub ensures that the nature of the Harwell campus - a largely industrial site with few full time students, does not disadvantage the students, and enables them to experience 'the best of both worlds'.We will advertise projects through partner universities and the national press, with further dissemination through leading journals. Students will apply directly to The Franklin.Collaborators, supervisors and co-supervisors will be chosen solely on the scientific merit, fit to the proposed joint projects and match with the student. This will be assessed by the Franklin studentship committee (with external independent expert members).Application and partnership information will be available at www.rfi.ac.uk/franklinfutures
