EPSRC Nominations

Description

EPSRC is seeking nominations for its three principal advisory bodies, the Technical Opportunities Panel (TOP), the User Panel (UP) and the Societal Issues Panel (SIP).

These consist of senior, experienced figures from the academic, industrial, and commercial communities, and help to formulate policy by advising the EPSRC Executive and Council. Both TOP and UP provide an informed view on the requirements for research, training, knowledge transfer and public engagement across the breadth of the EPSRC remit, from the perspectives of research providers (TOP) and users (UP). While SIP, which is the newest panel, provides advice about the potential societal and ethical impacts of EPSRC sponsored research and training.

The deadline for nominations is the 26 November 2008.
