A team of Aston University researchers has been awarded a prestigious £500,000 grant to lessen the environmental impact of cooling - one of the UK's fastest-growing energy needs. They will be exploring new methods of using renewable energy to power clean cooling technologies to alleviate the increasing stress on national energy supplies. The new network, which will be led by Aston University, is called Renewable Energy Access for Future UK Net-Zero Cooling (Reef-UKC). It is funded by the Engineering and Physical Sciences Research Council (EPSRC) and supports a consortium of Aston University experts led by Dr Ahmed Rezk. Dr Rezk said: "There's an urgent need across various sectors, both in the UK and globally, to reduce carbon footprints and adopt more sustainable practices for cooling. However, the cooling industry, which plays a critical role in sectors like food and beverage, data centres, steel, cement, pharmaceuticals, supermarkets, hospitals, and district cooling hasn't received the same attention in terms of sustainable innovation. Reef-UKC is an impact-driven network designed to address this important gap. "Reef-UKC offers a collaborative platform for academia and industry to come together and explore sustainable cooling solutions, particularly focusing on technologies that harness waste heat and other forms of renewables. It also aims to expand the project's outreach to regions like India, China, Africa, and the Middle East, where cooling is a critical requirement in many industries." A 2023 study shows that cooling already accounts for 10-20% of the UK's total energy consumption, and demand is expected to multiply in the years ahead causing more heat waves and stressing the national grid. The Aston University research team believes that the issue is further compounded by the growing cooling requirements of emerging industries like hydrogen production, where ammonia production alone demands 2.8 gigajoules of cooling per ton. The Reef-UKC network will also focus on circular economy business models, policies, and regulations. As a first step, the research team has announced a £100K seed funding call to support eight to 10 new research seed-funding projects which lead to larger, multidisciplinary, and impact-driven projects. Professor Patricia Thornley is the director of Aston University's Energy and Bioproducts Research Institute (EBRI), which was founded to explore sustainable resources to deliver an affordable, resilient, and low-carbon energy future. She said: "Through this project, Aston University reaffirms its commitment to leadership in renewable energy innovation. Reef-UKC represents a vital step toward a net-zero cooling solution that not only supports environmental goals but also aligns with the UK's economic, societal, and policy landscape." The network aims to bring together a community and develop a research agenda that will provide an opportunity to drive forward research and secure UK leadership as part of the engineering net zero mission-inspired priority to discover and develop the next generation of renewable energy technologies. Aston University will be working with researchers from London South Bank University, the University of Oxford, the University of Birmingham, the University of Warwick, the University of Glasgow, the University of Edinburgh, Brunel University London, Ulster University, Imperial College and the University of Cranfield. They will also be collaborating with several industrial partners including Star Refrigeration, Phase Change Materials Products Ltd, Tyseley Energy Park, PAK Engineering, Birmingham City Council, and Belfast City Council. Aston University's history has been intertwined with the history of Birmingham, a remarkable city that once was the heartland of the Industrial Revolution and the manufacturing powerhouse of the world. Born out of the First Industrial Revolution, Aston University has a proud and distinct heritage dating back to its formation as the School of Met...

"Our collaboration is greater than the sum of its parts." Kai Campos and Dominic Maker discuss their new album on Warp and what it felt like to work together again after years apart. British outfit Mount Kimbie first made their mark with their 2010 release Crooks and Lovers, inspired by contemporaries like James Blake and King Krule. The group's two primary members, Kai Campos and Dominic Maker, met at London South Bank University, where they simultaneously became enamoured with the '00s dubstep scene and the intersection it paved between commercial stardom and the underground, illuminating an alternative path for artists, producers and selectors on a global scale. Together, they became synonymous with hazy electronics and lo-fi indie pop throughout the mid-'10s. Over the last few years, Maker and Campos have pursued different paths: Maker moved to Los Angeles, where he's produced for hip-hop giants like Travis Scott and Jay-Z, while Campos explored the world of DJing and electronic music, releasing a number of mixes geared towards the club. But they reunited for the first time in years on their newest album, The Sunset Violent, which came out on Warp Records in April. In this RA Exchange, the duo talk about the recording process and what it felt like to work together again after spending so much time on independent projects. They also unpack the power of making art for art's sake and how their respective experiences in art and in life have taught them to be better creative partners. Listen to the episode in full.

This episode of the Campus podcast comes at a time when many UK universities are changing leaders. A total of 30 institutions have either had a new leader start or have begun the process of finding a replacement in 2024, according to a Times Higher Education analysis last month. So, what are the skills and experience that underpin good leadership and how do you prepare for a senior role? Our interview is with Shân Wareing, the new vice-chancellor of Middlesex University in northwest London, arranged after she posted on LinkedIn about the five things she focused on in her first day in the role. In that post, she listed sense-checking the mandate she had first pitched, identifying the key people to meet, understanding the underlying issues, how to make decisions “stick”, and seeing the life of the university. As she explains, the clarity of that road map comes from over 20 years' leadership experience in roles such as deputy vice-chancellor of the University of Northampton and pro vice-chancellor of education and student experience at London South Bank University. But her acuity comes from other sources, too. She offers fascinating insights into how to put a career together, the skill that is more important than confidence, and finding joy in what you do.   Our conversation took place in May, when she'd been in post for just over a month.

SummaryLucy Johnston discusses the Power Threat Meaning Framework (PTMF), an alternative to the diagnostic model of distress. The PTMF aims to move away from labeling and medicating distress and instead focuses on narrative practice and understanding. It emphasizes the role of power and the links between personal distress and wider social, political, and economic contexts. The PTMF has received both positive and negative reactions, with some seeing it as radical and threatening existing power structures.

In February's podcast we spoke to Dr James Morris, Research Fellow at London South Bank University, about how the model of ‘alcoholism' evolved and led to beliefs about alcohol problems being heavily focused on the severe end of the spectrum.Dr Morris discusses how Alcoholics Anonymous, despite helping a great many people in their recovery, reinforces this model and leads to people failing to recognise their own issues with alcohol. Discussing why this model can cause harm, Dr Morris stated:“I think the main way it prevents progress is through ‘othering', essentially the process of classifying alcohol problems as belonging to an ‘other'. The alcoholic stereotype is drawn on heavily for that. We see lots of heavy drinking groups point to the ‘alcoholic other' to distance their own drinking and protect their own drinking identify."

Multiple climate reports have been published this week all saying a similar thing: that the UK and wider world are experiencing record temperatures, that humanity is "inducing" climate change and that, unless we cut emissions, things are just going to get even hotter.There are still some people however who believe it's all hot air; that media coverage of climate stories is “fear mongering” and “manipulating”. But is it the science under scrutiny, or perhaps the path to net zero itself? On the Sky News Daily, Niall Paterson is joined by our climate change reporter Victoria Seabrook, editor and director of Carbon Brief Leo Hickman, and James Woudhuysen, visiting professor of forecasting and innovation at London South Bank University, to find out why, despite the science, climate scepticism is getting louder.

Welcome to episode 1368, in which host Victoria Cece interviews Masimilliano Menon this week on The Next Generation. The Next Generation where Victoria Cece interviews young Italian wine people shaking up the wine scene. More about today's guest: “I was born in Venice, attended “London South Bank” University in London and developed my green thumb here in Ridgewood, precisely in my backyard in Queens during the global pandemic. Felicity Lawrence's book “Not on The Label” changed forever my understanding on environmental issues in production and packaging of food and drinks. Avoiding mass produced sugary abominations and promoting polyculture, biodiversity and a more conscientious lifestyle. Taking part in the first UK natural wine fair in Borough Market made me understand how a natural approach could have helped preserve wine's interest. Not just wine as a homogenized commodity, placed in supermarkets and convenience stores but a diversity of distinctive fermented grape juice with a sense of place. Through my harvest experiences in Mendoza, Loire Valley and Penedes, I was lucky enough to understand that grapes are not just a raw ingredient in a manufacturing process but wine had a more socially responsible and ethical mission, the power to tell the story of its origin through passion, tradition, emotion, heritage, legacy and culture of those persons involved. Currently living in NYC, I am an Italian Sommelier Association Diploma (AIS) holder and Wine and Spirit Education Trust Advanced level (WSET) certified with a deep understanding and a holistic approach towards the business of food and wine. Unfortunately, consumers lack understanding of what wine and food is, let alone what authentic wine and food is. My objectives through the years pouring glasses to customers in Brooklyn was to help them progress in their journey, enhancing their dining and drinking experiences. When addressing specialist retailers and training restaurant staff member, informing them about the point of difference amongst organic, biodynamic and naturalness. Since that day at Oxfam where I found the book, I've always been convinced of food and wine as a driving force to change. My main role has always been to help people reconnecting to nature in a largely disconnected life.” To learn more visit: linkedin.com/in/massimiliano-menon-06389094 More about the host: Victoria Cece is a food and beverage storyteller whose curiosity is somewhere deep in a bowl of pasta or a bottle of wine.

In the early hours of Monday, a powerful earthquake hit Kahramanmaras in Turkey. Nine hours later another struck. When this edition of Science in Action first aired, 19,000 people were reported to have died, but that number was expected to rise. Back in 2016, Professor Asli Garagon and her colleagues accurately predicted that an earthquake of this size was coming. Using GPS, they were monitoring the East Anatolian fault to calculate energy building between the plates. With such accurate insight could Turkey have been better prepared? Ross Stein, seismologist and founder of Temblor, a Californian consultancy that specialises in assessing hazard risk, estimates the plates moved at 5,000 mph. The movement of the plates may have built up pressure in other parts of the country. And finally, Tiziana Rossetto, a civil engineer at University College London, knows better than most that earthquakes do not kill, buildings do. She tells Roland how the combination of earthquakes and subsequent aftershocks appear to have even destroyed buildings that were purposely built to withstand them. Also, Why does the thought of giving a talk to an audience fill so many of us with sheer terror? Marnie Chesterton investigates for listener Nhial, who has seen his fellow students in Morocco become panic stricken at the prospect and wants to know the reason for our anxiety. According to one study, 77 per cent of us share that fear. Marnie finds out about the relationship between stress, our brains and our voices from research associate Dr Maria Dietrich at the University Hospital, Bonn University. She talks to Nhial's tutor, Professor Taoufik Jaafari, at Hassan II University of Casablanca about the challenges facing his students. And she visits the National Theatre in London to get some expert training from Jeannette Nelson, head of voice, who works with some of the world's leading actors. Could there be an evolutionary explanation for the purpose of public speaking? Is it something we actually need to be good at? Marnie asks evolutionary psychologist Professor Robin Dunbar at Oxford University and gets some surprising answers. She meets psychologist Dr Preethi Premkumar at London South Bank University, who has developed virtual reality therapy with colleagues at Nottingham Trent University, and tries out the treatment herself.

Claire-Louise is a managing Director within the Technology Sector at Russell Reynolds Associates. She is a diversity and inclusion advocate, with a passion for hiring diverse Board and executive leadership teams and building succession pipelines of female and underrepresented minority leaders. Claire-Louise chatted with us about what she calls the great reflection, assessing the current work environment landscape and how recruitment and retention has changed in recent years. She explains how technology, workplace perspectives, corporate culture, sustainability, and social impact have affected those changes.-------3 Takeaways:The job market has been extremely dynamic. There's a huge demand for technology skills all around the world, in many leadership and advisory roles. There has been a shift behaviorally and culturally in workplaces. There is a greater focus on how to retain great people, and more of an emphasis on things like the use of technology and who is filling different roles, to the makeup and dynamic of where people are working and when they do their jobs.Technology is the differentiator today for many corporations. There is a much bigger focus on having tech savvy leaders than ever before. There is also a much greater expectation that most major corporations have cyber security experience on their board.The complexity and the intellectual challenge of trying to resolve the legacy operations with the new, and driving that transformation at that scale with that degree of complexity, is very much in focus. Leaders are being required to straddle both, understanding how to mix the old with the new, creating great products or platforms, while maintaining a good customer experience and getting the most from their IT budgets.-------Key Quotes: “The markets have changed significantly since the pandemic. There's this digital acceleration with a razor focus on customer centricity and hyper personalization. We are all used to consuming product services platforms more easily than we have done before. That's driven quite a lot of change in the industry. And, as a consequence of that, we've seen quite a lot of CEO board movement, then CIO and COO movement.”“Great talent will always be hired, no matter the economic situation. We need to be thinking about succession planning and retention of great talent so that we are not losing great technology leaders and technologists to competitors or even to different industries. This is actually something that we're seeing quite a lot of at the minute.”“I think people are continuing to be motivated by how do I develop as an individual? What is an organization doing for me in terms of my career prospects? But, equally, I think there's an acknowledgement that you want to work for an organization that has meaning and is having an impact on society. I think that has changed.”-------Best Career Advice:Make sure that you build relationships and that you network. Sometimes those relationships are not inside your own organization or even actually inside your own industry. Keep an open mind and make sure that you network to create opportunities to meet others and put yourself out there in a deliberate fashion.-------Bio:Claire-Louise McSherryManaging Director - Technology Sector at Russell Reynolds AssociatesClaire-Louise McSherry specializes in helping financial services companies find technology leaders.

This and all episodes at: https://aiandyou.net/ .   The legend of Alan Turing continues to grow; but what was his real contribution to today's world? To get a solid idea of the size and shape of Turing's legacy, I turned to Jonathan Bowen, co-author of The Turing Guide, a comprehensive account of Turing's life and times. Jonathan is is a fellow of the British Computer Society, a fellow of the Royal Society of Arts, Emeritus Professor at London South Bank University, and an adjunct professor or visiting professor of many universities. Turing, of course, was notable for his role at Bletchley Park in WWII decoding the ENIGMA transmissions, estimated by some at personally shortening the war by two years or longer. But this did not come to light for decades afterwards due to official secrets. Turing is famous in computer science for the Turing Machine and in AI for the Turing Test. But there is even more to him. In part 2 you can hear Jonathan tell us about what Turing did after the war, his work in biology and quantum physics, and the club that sparked so much of Turing's collaborations. (A full list of links provided by Jonathan is in the transcript.) All this plus our usual look at today's AI headlines. Transcript and URLs referenced at HumanCusp Blog.
