One of India鈥檚 most eminent scientists visited Cambridge last month marking important research links between the 探花直播 and Bangalore
Professor听C.N.R.听Rao, Head of the Scientific Advisory Committee to the Prime Minister of India, and a team of distinguished delegates visited the 探花直播 to attend an EPSRC-funded workshop on Advanced Materials for Energy and Sustainable Manufacturing, held at St John's College.
探花直播workshop was part of a collaboration between teams in Cambridge (led by Prof Sir Richard Friend), Jawaharlal Nehru Centre for Advanced Scientific Research (JNCASR) and the Indian Institute of Science (IISc) in Bangalore.
It was the final component of a one year 鈥淕lobal Engagement鈥 project supported by the EPSRC, which has supported a number of collaborations between groups in Cambridge (in Physics, Materials Science and Engineering) and groups at the JNCASR and IISc.听
This project built on the many 鈥榖ottom up鈥 research contacts that have been set up between Cambridge and Bangalore in this broad area of research and it intended to help frame longer-term research objectives that could be developed between Cambridge and Bangalore.
探花直播workshop was opened by Prof Sir Leszek Borysiewicz, Vice-Chancellor of Cambridge 探花直播, who spoke warmly of the long-standing partnerships Cambridge has with India and specifically with Bangalore, and encouraged building up on the present one year EPSRC project.
Professor听C.N.R.听Rao thanked the Vice-Chancellor for his support and announced a fellowship scheme from JNCASR which would support two Postdoctoral fellows to visit Cambridge for furthering research under the Global AMES platform.
探花直播workshop consisted of a series of presentations that highlighted the collaborative work that has been performed during this project.
In addition a number of talks, on related topics, were provided by invited guests from both Bangalore and Cambridge, which stimulated considerable scientific debate.听
探花直播future goal is to develop the work and ideas from these interactions into further collaborations in this important area of materials research.
