[Academic] Fwd: FW: Potential collaboration w IIT Mumbai

[John Jeffers]

Dear All,

I forwarded this to you a couple of months ago. Did anyone contact 
anyone at IIT Mumbai? There seems to be little overlap with our research 
but there may be some worth checking.

Dear Directors of Research

While in India in Feb 2012, Stuart Shorthouse (RIO) visited IIT Mumbai 
to discuss the potential for research collaboration.  The Dean of 
International Relations has indicated research areas where there appear 
to be shared interests -- see his e-mail below.  It would be appreciated 
if you would have a look at the research activity on the IIT website 
relating to your area and contact your counterpart in IIT about any area 
where further exploration may be useful.  Can you keep me informed, 
please, on how discussions are going, so that I can report to relevant 
Fac bodies?

Hi Bronagh/Tony

This has come back from IIT Mumbai following my visit to their campus 
and the document you passed on with the main areas of research for the 
Faculty.

Professor Subhasis Chaudhuri is the Dean of International Relations for 
the Institute and was keen for us to follow up with the research 
directors in Mumbai (details below).

We can chat through this tomorrow when we meet.

Best wishes

Stuart
