Foreword for Issue 26 (Spotlight on Imaging) from the Pro-Vice-Chancellor for Research: If there’s one thing that Cambridge has always excelled in, it’s finding new ways of looking at the world. And now, this is quite literally true. Issue 26 focuses on research that’s been enabled by the ability to explore far beyond what the eye can see. From visualising microscopic cells to massive galaxies, imaging is a core tool for many research fields today, and it’s also the basis of a surge in recent technical developments – some of which are being pioneered in Cambridge.

Much of the excitement around imaging is linked to its remarkably cross-disciplinary nature. As imaging becomes more complex, the information we gather becomes greater. In this issue, we also cover the Large Hadron Collider (LHC), itself a prolific generator of data. We hope you enjoy this issue. Professor Lynn Gladden. École polytechnique fédérale de Lausanne.

ResearchGate. ResearchGate was built by scientists, for scientists.

ResearchGate

It started when two researchers discovered first-hand that collaborating with a friend or colleague on the other side of the world was no easy task. Founded in 2008 by physicians Dr. Ijad Madisch and Dr. Sören Hofmayer, and computer scientist Horst Fickenscher, ResearchGate today has more than 6 million members. We strive to help them make progress happen faster. Our mission Our mission is to connect researchers and make it easy for them to share and access scientific output, knowledge, and expertise.

Here's how it works Share your publications, access millions more, and publish your data. Engineering Anomalies Research. The Princeton Engineering Anomalies Research (PEAR) program, which flourished for nearly three decades under the aegis of Princeton University’s School of Engineering and Applied Science, has completed its experimental agenda of studying the interaction of human consciousness with sensitive physical devices, systems, and processes, and developing complementary theoretical models to enable better understanding of the role of consciousness in the establishment of physical reality.

PEAR has now incorporated its present and future operations into the broader venue of the ICRL, a 501(c)(3) not-for-profit research organization, in addition to Psyleron—a company that provides Random Event Generator devices to enable the continued exploration of PEAR’s findings by the general public and research communities. On the accompanying menu of pages we have attempted to sketch the substance, spirit, and findings of this scholarly endeavor. Centre national de la recherche scientifique. The Kavli Foundation.

(Photo by M. Halpern) The Astronomy Instrumentation Group (AIG) has a reputation for not only developing world-leading enabling technology but in translating these developments into state-of-the-art instrument design to fulfil current scientific needs. This is evidenced by our considerable involvement in virtually all FIR space instruments, including the Herschel (Cardiff is PI institute for the SPIRE instrument) and Planck space telescopes. The AIG comprises 7 academic staff, 9 post-doctoral research associates and 6 PhD students, supported by highly skilled cleanroom, cryogenic and electronic technicians and computer engineers. Interdisciplinary Research. Many research challenges today require interdisciplinary teams with strong foundations in discipline-based research.

Interdisciplinary Research

The combination of expertise from numerous disciplines leads to novel approaches to resolving specific scientific problems. Many of the intellectual breakthroughs of modern times were obtained by crossing disciplinary boundaries and many of society's major problems, such as environmental issues and healthcare, require integrated approaches from different disciplines. Cardiff School of Physics and Astronomy strongly supports interdisciplinary research. Scientists from across the School are making use of their core skills to address problems in a number of subject areas, including the humanities, social sciences, biological sciences and music.

Swedish Defence Research Agency. Norwegian Defence Research Establishment. FFI is the chief adviser on defence-related science and technology to the Ministry of Defence and the Norwegian Armed Forces.

Norwegian Defence Research Establishment

The Establishment focuses particularly on developments in science and military technology, which have an impact on political security and defence planning. The demand for expert and flexible armed forces requires continuous renewal and Norway’s unflagging emphasize on defence technology keeps FFI busy. It is a true challenge to make significant contributions to the development of the Armed Forces – both in its principal national defence role as well as in its various roles as an effective participant in international security operations.
