Description The collaborations undertaken through this grant have had a range of significant impacts - collaborations with the partnered industry and cross-sector organisations have resulted in sharing and learning of new skill sets and best practices by participating Institute and industry scientists, improved awareness of industry/academic needs and strengthened existing collaborations with these organisation and the Institute. The funded exchanges and secondments have supported participating Industry and Institute researchers in enhancing their roles in their job description, participants have reported learning new methods to bring back to improve their research or Facility service provision, as well as improved awareness of career opportunities and an opportunity to develop their professional network. The Flow Facility were able to provide extra evidence from the collaboration with the company ChromaTwist to support their BBSRC business case for a new spectral cell analyzer, worth £650,000, which was funded. Direct impacts that are still in progress include development of further scientific papers (some still in progress) , Innovate UK SMART grant application (currently under consideration) and an IP licence (currently under negotiation with the company).
