ENGINEERING AND PHYSICAL SCIENCES RESEARCH COUNCIL CHALLENGE AND CAPABILITY Nigel Birch Physical Sciences
Key integration foci for the theme Leaders Developing inspirational scientific leadership Balancing creativity with capability Focussing the training portfolio aligned with strategic needs Shaping Linking effectively to other capability & challenge themes and building on other external funding sources Managing multiple strategies Influencing current portfolio of investments Physical Sciences Capability Impact Making impact a smarter rather than a serendipitous process Enhancing capability at the Cross- Council interface (the wider importance of Physical Sciences capability) Infrastructure Developing a national strategy Implementation of approach to support rather hinder science
Physical Sciences National Capability/Challenge Strategy for the theme: Focus on ground-breaking physical sciences research Shape and integrate portfolio to meet societal and economic challenges that rely on fundamental science for solutions Maintain flow of people to sustain capability at all career changes Identify and help develop current and future research leaders
Materials for Energy applications Part of Physical Sciences (Capability) portfolio Recognises fundamental importance of materials research to meeting Energy challenges Develops in association with Energy Programme. Eg: Call: Encouraging physical sciences research to meet energy needs Feedback from Energy discussions to inform strategic Theme strategy Opening of Research Area to Fellowships
