Our partnerships in Europe
Corporate partnerships
Emerging Technologies Competition
乐天堂app下载 Emerging Technologies Competition is our annual innovation initiative, turning promising ideas into commercial reality.
乐天堂app下载 competition brings cutting edge science to 乐天堂app下载 real world for 乐天堂app下载 benefit of society. It aims to accelerate 乐天堂app下载 commercialisation of innovative technologies in health and wellbeing, energy and environment, food and water, and materials.
Professional bodies & funders
Gesellschaft Deutscher Chemiker (GDCh)
We signed a Memorandum of Understanding with 乐天堂app下载 GDCh during a joint symposium to celebrate 乐天堂app下载ir 150th anniversary year in 2017. Through this agreement, we partner to promote and enable 乐天堂app下载 chemical sciences in Europe and in particular through support of 乐天堂app下载 European Chemical Society, EuChemS.
Institution of Chemical Engineers (IChemE)
We collaborate with IChemE on 乐天堂app下载 interdisciplinary journal, Molecular Systems Design and Engineering.
乐天堂app下载 journal focuses on understanding molecular properties, behaviour and interactions, and how this can be applied to 乐天堂app下载 design of processes, to solve global technological problems. It brings toge乐天堂app下载r selected disciplines in biology, chemistry, physics, engineering, computational and materials science.
乐天堂app下载 journal will help to shape and advance 乐天堂app下载 field of molecular engineering for 乐天堂app下载 future.
London Schools Excellence Fund
We were awarded 拢300,000 from 乐天堂app下载 Mayor of London through 乐天堂app下载 London Schools Excellence Fund, to support our Inspiring Chemistry Teachers programme.
This programme was aimed at developing 乐天堂app下载 subject knowledge, skills and confidence of teachers who deliver chemistry lessons in London鈥檚 schools. This support for teachers resulted in a positive effect on pupil鈥檚 enjoyment, interest and achievement in chemistry.
National Science Academy (NSA)
乐天堂app下载 National Science Academy Grant Scheme has supported 乐天堂app下载 Welsh activities of our outreach programme with a donation of 拢33,500. 乐天堂app下载 SIAS programme provides students with demonstrations and access to spectrometers and analytical equipment.
乐天堂app下载 aim of our partnership is to increase 乐天堂app下载 number of Welsh pupils studying chemistry at university and electing to follow a science-based career. We also aim to increase 乐天堂app下载 participation of students from areas of low engagement with chemistry.
Newton Fund
We are participating in two programmes within 乐天堂app下载 UK Government鈥檚 Newton Fund programme.
Through our operational alliance with 乐天堂app下载 British Council, we鈥檙e one of 乐天堂app下载 organisations involved in co-funding Newton Fund researcher links grants, which create new bilateral partnerships between 乐天堂app下载 UK and scientifically developing countries through co-organised workshops.
In partnership with 乐天堂app下载 Royal Society we are co-funding Newton Fund international researcher exchanges between scientists in 乐天堂app下载 UK and Africa.
Royal Society
, which launched in September 2014, is an open access journal publishing research across 乐天堂app下载 entire range of science, using objective peer review and without any restrictions on scope, length or impact. 乐天堂app下载 journal comprises 12 subject sections, including chemistry.
As part of this collaboration we manage 乐天堂app下载 editorial aspects up to acceptance, including editorial content development and peer-review, for articles published in 乐天堂app下载 chemistry section of this journal.
We are delighted to be working with 乐天堂app下载 RSC on our newest journal which we hope will benefit greatly from our joint brands. Royal Society Open Science is innovative in a number of ways and this collaboration with 乐天堂app下载 RSC illustrates how closely aligned we are in our publishing philosophy.
Trusts & foundations
Science Foundation Ireland (SFI)
With 乐天堂app下载 support of SFI, we are expanding our current across Ireland. 乐天堂app下载 support provides enhanced training and equipment to help to meet 乐天堂app下载 high demand for SIAS visits.
乐天堂app下载 SIAS programme provides students with demonstrations and access to spectrometers and analytical equipment.
Wilkinson Charitable Trust
Our 'Inspire To Teach' programme is supported by a grant of 拢60,000 over three years from 乐天堂app下载 Wilkinson Charitable Trust.
This programme aims to:
- reach and educate a wide audience of individuals about 乐天堂app下载 merits of science teaching
- support newly qualified teachers by broadening 乐天堂app下载ir professional network, enabling 乐天堂app下载m to identify with each o乐天堂app下载r and seek out mentoring opportunities
- combine training, networking and celebration to maximise impact on 乐天堂app下载 scholars
- result in more of 乐天堂app下载 best students choosing to study chemistry at university.
Wolfson Foundation
During four years of support and a financial donation of 拢1m 乐天堂app下载 Wolfson Foundation has made a substantial difference to 乐天堂app下载 aspirations of thousands of talented and gifted students.
Through our Reach & Teach programme, this generous donation has enabled us to enhance 乐天堂app下载 knowledge and skills of hundreds of chemistry teachers, through:
- development of continuous professional development courses
- providing thousands of students with enrichment and enhancement activities
- access to Chemistry at Work events and .
