Yesterday (9 August) saw the removal of many restrictions as Scotland moves beyond COVID protection Level Zero – the clearest sign yet that, thanks to the vaccination programme, the impact of COVID-19 is lessening significantly.



Protection measures will still be required, including the wearing of face coverings in all the same indoor settings as is currently the case, unless you are exempt.



On physical distancing, even though the law will not require a specific distance, the Scottish Government continues to advise that, especially indoors, people should keep a reasonable distance from other people and avoid places that are crowded.



In keeping with this measured approach, the University's Executive Team has endorsed the recommendation of the e-First Group to continue with physical distancing across campus.

Innovation in an era of disruption


[https://universityofstrathclyde.newsweaver.com/v2files/shard1/85313/09/39e0ac061b127a60914b70.jpg]Strathclyde played host to the R&D Management Conference, the first event of its scale to be held fully online.



The theme of the conference, held last month, was ‘Innovation in an Era of Disruption’, which was exactly the approach taken in order to successfully deliver such a large, complex and high-level event in this format.



Conference Co-Chairs Dr Beverly Wagner and Dr Juliette Wilson, from the University’s Marketing Department tell us how, with the help of our award-winning Conferencing & Events Team, they achieved this – a fantastic example of Strathclyde’s collaborative and people-oriented values in action.

A recognition of the growing importance of academic-industrial relationships


Babcock, the international engineering company and the University of Strathclyde<https://universityofstrathclyde.newsweaver.com/cvg4pnmkid/92jut2qj3cbxru4xfpp9cz/external?email=true&a=5&p=59979323&t=31139333> have established a new strategic partnership to develop and deliver innovation through world-class projects.



The alliance is a recognition of the growing importance of academic-industrial relationships.  Babcock and Strathclyde have been working together for more than 30 years. The formalising of the partnership will strengthen existing educational programmes for degree apprenticeships and industry placements and build on existing innovative research projects in nuclear, advanced manufacturing, space and security related technologies.

New technique could revolutionise disinfection of ambulances and hospitals<https://universityofstrathclyde.newsweaver.com/cvg4pnmkid/1lyowhfsm2uxru4xfpp9cz/external?email=true&a=1&p=59979323&t=31139333>
Could drastically reduce the time it takes to get an ambulance safely back on the road to save lives


A novel microwave sterilisation method that could revolutionise the way ambulances and hospitals are disinfected has been created in research involving the University of Strathclyde.



At present, sterilisation is done manually with conventional techniques that use chemicals. This can take around 30 to 40 minutes to disinfect a single ambulance. During this time, the ambulance is out of action, putting increasing pressure on emergency services during busy times.



The possibility of the new technique could drastically reduce the time it takes to get an ambulance safely back on the road to save lives.



Professor Nico Bruns, a polymer specialist in Strathclyde’s Department of Pure and Applied Chemistry, was a partner in the study

Part of the drive towards becoming a net zero economy


The University of Strathclyde is part of a consortium created to develop more sustainable aircraft capable of short-haul operations across the Highlands and Islands.



Strathclyde has partnered with Loganair, Rolls-Royce and the Centre for Modelling & Simulation (CFMS) for the six-month project, which is also being supported by Scottish Enterprise.



As well as looking at creating an aircraft capable of short-haul operations, the group will assess the ability of the Scottish Aviation supply chain to support the industrialisation of such a product.

"Great news for the care of future brain cancer patients"


Early detection of brain cancer has moved one step closer, through a breakthrough by cancer diagnostics firm, and University of Strathclyde spinout company, Dxcover<https://universityofstrathclyde.newsweaver.com/cvg4pnmkid/5cgzzpgux9jxru4xfpp9cz/external?email=true&a=5&p=59979323&t=31139333>.



The company has shown that its innovative testing technology, the Dxcover® Liquid Biopsy, is effective even in the earlier days of cancer growth, at a smaller volume and lower stage.



According to Cancer Research UK, 12,000 people in Britain are diagnosed with brain tumours every year and survival rates are as low as 12% five years after diagnosis.

In order to celebrate the achievements of the Age-Friendly Academy (AFA)<https://universityofstrathclyde.newsweaver.com/cvg4pnmkid/183kxfuarvmxru4xfpp9cz/external?email=true&a=5&p=59979323&t=31355932> since its launch in 2017, The Centre for Lifelong Learning have recently developed an Age-Friendly Academy Impact Report.



Over the past four years, the AFA has brought together and showcased activities already being delivered at the University, as well as developing new opportunities for collaboration, both internally and externally.



This has all been aimed at promoting positive ageing across the lifespan, breaking down barriers and changing perceptions of what a university is and who it is for. The AFA sends a clear message that Strathclyde offers something for everyone regardless of age or stage in life.



The report gives overview of achievements from the launch of the AFA until now, including the measures it has taken to adapt its work in response to COVID-19 and its hopes for life post-COVID.



For more information, please contact Gemma Gilliland<mailto:Gemma.Gilliland at strath.ac.uk>, Age-Friendly Academy Manager.
