Knowledge Exchange is a collaborative process between researchers and
research users. The ICMS are involved in supporting the UK Knowledge
Exchange Hub for Mathematical Sciences (KE Hub) which was launched last
year.
Are you an external partner?
The KE Hub has been
launched to facilitate connections with university-based mathematical
scientists from across the UK, and enable business (including
charities), industry, and government departments (B.I.G.) to benefit
from the power of cutting-edge mathematical ideas. We welcome engagement
with all sizes of companies, all sectors, and all levels of
mathematical expertise – you can sign up to become a B.I.G. Partner here or contact [email protected] to
find out more. Becoming a B.I.G. Partner will grant access to the
latest information and funding calls, as well as KE Hub opportunities
including short projects and triage workshops.
Triage workshops are
online scoping sessions that allow B.I.G. Partners to directly engage
in informal discussions with university-based mathematical scientists
from across the UK. In each workshop, one B.I.G. partner presents a
challenge to interested academics. The aim is to figure out if the
mathematical sciences can help to address the challenge, and if so, to
identify who would like to take things further, hopefully leading to new
collaborations and projects.
You can register your interest in presenting a challenge at a triage workshop here or contact the organisers Dr Lauren Hyndman ([email protected]) and Prof Diwei Zhou ([email protected]) to find out more.
Are you an academic?
KE Hub triage
workshops are interactive online scoping sessions that take place
fortnightly from 10:00-11:30 on Friday mornings. In each workshop, a
representative from business, industry or government presents a
challenge and engages in informal discussions with interested academics
from UK mathematical sciences departments. The aim is to figure out if
the mathematical sciences can help to address the challenge, and if so,
to identify who would like to take the challenge further, hopefully
leading to new collaborations and projects.
Academics interested in participating in triage workshops can join the KE Hub mailing list here to
receive all the latest information. Reminders are sent out in advance
of each workshop and a list of all upcoming and past triage workshops
can be found here. If you would like to join in, please contact your local KE Champion for the Teams link. If your department has not yet nominated a KE Champion, please contact [email protected] to find out more.
