We have a system of Academic Oversight and Executive Management delivering:
- highly specialised technology: by recruiting dedicated, experienced staff who ensure that equipment is properly specified, developed and maintained and that academic staff can concentrate on research rather than technology development
- efficient management of equipment: by ensuring that specialised and expensive technology is available to all staff on an equal basis
- training and support for research staff throughout their project: in many cases, Centre staff play a significant role in the design of experiments and development of projects
- a forum for interaction between staff across groups and divisions: this facilitates knowledge transfer and provides a catalyst for collaborative research
