BRITEnet
  Objectives
 
Regional Meetings
  BRITE Net was formed to promote high quality joint interdisciplinary cross institution grant applications in the UK.

The way we are doing this is to organize small regional afternoon meetings (anything from 10 – 50 people). The host chooses a topic and invites speakers from his department and colleagues from the region and BRITE Net publicises the meeting and other BRITE net members can attend the meeting if they wish. BRITE Net sponsors the refreshments, assists with the agenda and helps with organisation of the meeting. All that the host needs to do is find a departmental seminar room/lecture theatre for the meeting and BRITE Net liaises with a post doc or lecturer regarding the catering and the list of invitees which the host provides for BRITE Net to send out.

If you would like to host a meeting please contact Sally Brown at tissue.eng@ucl.ac.uk

   
 
Student Awards
  We have limited amount of funds available for student mobility. This funding would enable a student to travel to another BRITE Net member’s group for collaboration and study of their techniques. The money would probably cover transport and 1 - 2 weeks rent in student accommodation. If you are interested in applying for these awards please e-mail through to Sally details of who the student is, where they would be going, how long they want to go for and a short summary of what they would be doing and why it would be useful to your lab.

 

   
 
Major Grant Collaboration
  The idea of BRITE Net is to get together scientists and doctors from all over the country and put together a large grant that is multidisciplinary. This will be discussed at the next BRITE Net business meeting.
