In November Glasgow will host the 26th UN Climate Change Conference of the Parties (COP26), bringing parties together to accelerate action towards the goals of the Paris Agreement and the UN Framework Convention on Climate Change.
At Strathclyde, we have placed net zero at the heart of our strategy. Our work leverages existing relationships to deliver improved engagement and impact, foster new partnerships and broaden our research base in a net zero society.
We’re looking forward to Glasgow hosting COP26. Strathclyde is involved in a number of events, exhibitions and other activities with our students, staff and partners in the run-up to and during the conference.

The temporal structure of behaviour contains a rich (but often neglected) source of information about the dynamic organization, origins and development of that behaviour.
The focus of the talk is on the micro-genetic approach to behavioural analysis. Several applications will be discussed, to demonstrate the use of this approach in (developmental) psychology.

[https://universityofstrathclyde.newsweaver.com/v2files/shard1/85313/f2/d191b4b2b192df71ba79e4.jpg]Our research has found that the online targeted advertising infrastructure is increasingly being used by UK law enforcement and public bodies.
Our initial explorations involved the use of these tools by the National Crime Agency in ‘influence policing’, part of the expansion of the PREVENT programme to extend the use of targeted 'influence' messaging methods to prevent cybercrime and violent crime.
However our mapping research suggests much broader use is becoming common across government and policing.

Research co-led at the University of Strathclyde
Intelligent sensing and tele-presence robotic technology, enabling health practitioners to remotely assess a person’s physical and cognitive health from anywhere in the world, is being pioneered in research co-led at the University of Strathclyde.
The technology could aid cost-effective diagnosis, more regular monitoring and health assessments alongside assistance, especially for people living with conditions such as Alzheimer’s disease and other cognitive impairments.
The system was demonstrated for the first time to the UK Government Minister, Iain Stewart during a visit to the construction site of the National Robotarium, hosted at Heriot-Watt University, which is co-leading the research with Strathclyde.

September-October
[https://universityofstrathclyde.newsweaver.com/v2files/shard1/85313/4d/fe8c0e29217a5036c39963.jpg]These drop-in sessions offer an opportunity each week for staff to come along and seek advice on any aspect of the design and delivery of blended, online and hybrid learning.
Given the remarkable amount of innovation and learning that is currently taking place, we also encourage staff to come and share questions, ideas or experiences - including what has worked well and where there are further opportunities for improvement.
A small team of facilitators will be there to discuss, advise, support, and work alongside you to consider how these approaches might work best for you and your students within your own discipline and context.

Aimed at staff with team lead responsibilities
[https://universityofstrathclyde.newsweaver.com/v2files/shard1/85313/3a/3b7d06bf3110dcc861226a.png]
The Continuous Improvement Directorate run a variety of virtual staff development sessions throughout the year.
The best ideas come when people who work or interact with each other share their knowledge and insights and create solutions together.
When an issue needs tackled, a problem needs solved or an opportunity needs to be identified, those who face the issue on a day to day basis are often best placed to deliver solutions and ideas.
This course explores behaviours and structures which create the environment for supporting staff to innovate within their own teams.
