Dr Billy Wu reads an IMSE briefing paper

The Institute for Molecular Science and Engineering (IMSE) is currently welcoming proposals for future briefing papers.

The overarching aim of the IMSE briefing paper series is to communicate key research topics to a broad audience. For example, papers can be targeted towards policy makers or those working in industry. Funding, for up to a few months’ of researcher's work towards a briefing paper, is available.

It is important for Imperial to influence policy – such as with the new IMSE briefing papers Professor Nick Jennings Vice-Provost (Research)

Launched in 2017, the series so far includes an introduction to the integrated molecular science and engineering concept as an effective way to tackle many global grand challenges, and a paper on future opportunities in the additive manufacturing industry.

Upcoming papers will include issues related to carbon capture and utilisation, and to the molecular engineering of antimicrobial surfaces.

If you would like to suggest a topical subject for an upcoming IMSE briefing paper, please complete the proposal form and return it to IMSE Communications Manager, Shoshana Weider. Please also feel free to contact Shoshana for more information. 

About IMSE

Founded in 2015, the Institute for Molecular Science and Engineering is the newest of Imperial College London’s Global Institutes. The Institute brings engineers, scientists, clinicians and business researchers together from Imperial’s four faculties to find molecular-based solutions to grand challenges facing our world. By blurring the boundaries between molecular science and engineering, and changing the way scientists and engineers work together, the aim of the Institute is to accelerate the pace of development to address these challenges. The Institute co-ordinates a range of integrated activities to enable researchers at Imperial and elsewhere to engineer novel products and solutions that are firmly based on advances in molecular science and engineering.
