The Research & Innovation and Project Technical Support Team provides support, help and advice across two areas of the School's specialist laboratory areas. The R&I team works with Post Doctoral researchers, PhD students, postgraduate students and academics. The team supports a diverse range of research and innovation activities across several scientific disciplines.
The Project Support team works with undergraduate BSc and MSc students to facilitate the delivery of research projects across Biomedical Science, Food Science & Technology and Podiatry programmes. Technical staff in both areas work across disciplines, providing support not only for each other, but also for Learning and Teaching, providing expertise for taught practical classes and contributing to the Technician Demonstrator pool.
The Learning & Teaching Technical Support Team supports the delivery of practical class teaching across School's Biomedical Sciences, Dental Technology and Food Science & Technology degree programmes. The team provides laboratory management and supervision, specialist technical support, practical class preparation, delivery and recovery. The team also provides Technician Demonstrator support to these practical class teaching activities.
The Clinical Technical Support Team provides technical support for a wide range of clinical areas and activities including some of our NHS funded, Health and Care Professions Council accredited degree programmes. The areas covered include podiatry, speech and language therapy, psychology, complementary healthcare and the health assessment suite. Many of these areas run clinics for patients or clients.
