James Evans Abstract This thesis develops a multi-scalar political ecology of biodiversity conservation on brownfield sites in Birmingham, U.K. While urban brownfield biodiversity is increasingly recognised as a valuable resource, political pressure to develop such spaces is also growing. Forty-five interviews were conducted with practitioners and policy makers, supported by genealogical and discursive analyses of a range of texts, to interrogate this tension. Common discourses structuring ecological, conservation and planning activities are traced across national and international levels, to contextualise the formulation and implementation of biodiversity action plans at the local level. Because urban landscapes are characterised by disequilibrium, planning policies and ecological models under-represent the worth of these spaces. The mediation of these discourses through local networks of actors engaged in the biodiversity action plan process is explored socially and geographically. A scalar political ecology of urban planning is developed through the consideration of wildlife corridors, and a case study of a specific brownfield site. The thesis offers an integrative analysis of socio- ecological transformation, and urban ecological governance. It is argued that while the BAP process has the potential to reconfigure urban geographies, it is currently sterile because such forms of sustainable governance contradict the dominant ‘scalar fix’ of capitalism. Acknowledgements Thank you to all the people who gave up their time to talk to me. The enthusiasm and unfaltering generosity with which I have been given knowledge by people from all walks of life has made the past three years a personally enriching experience. The research was made possible by an ESRC and NERC Postgraduate Training Award (R00429934133), and my supervisors, for creating an environment in which it was possible to talk expansively about a diversity of topics, and for offering nuggets of wisdom to keep me on track and regulate occasional excesses. The many friends in the department, who have supplied words of advice, good conversation, inspiration, amusement, sporting camaraderie and the occasional riff, have helped make the research process enjoyable. Thank you to my family and friends for their support and understanding in everything over the last few years, and finally, thank you to my girl, who has been lovely throughout.

  • Biochemistry, Genetics, Molecular and Cell Biology) Hit the Newspaper Headlines on a Weekly Basis
    The Tenovus-Scotland Symposia and Medal Lectures Today medical advances as a result of discoveries in the Life Sciences (Biochemistry, Genetics, Molecular and Cell Biology) hit the newspaper headlines on a weekly basis. This was not the case at the time of the first Tenovus-Scotland Symposium nearly 35 years ago. Since the discovery of the structure of DNA twenty years earlier, great advances had been made in understanding, at the level of molecules, how genes work in the cell. From study of simple bacteria and viruses, it was known that the information for making all the different proteins in the cell was encoded in the sequence of nucleotides, the individual chemical units of DNA, but study of higher organisms seemed impossibly complex. The chromosomes in each human cell have about 23,000 genes in their DNA that contains a total of about three thousand million nucleotides - how would it be possible to study these genes individually? Three staff from the Biochemistry Department and the Beatson Institute planned a two day meeting at Glasgow University in 1974 to bring together scientists to discuss and learn about the new discoveries that were beginning to provide answers to that fundamental question. Sir Charles Illingworth, who had recently founded Tenovus- Scotland, saw the importance of these studies and their potential future application in medicine and agreed a grant towards the cost of the meeting, which we called the Tenovus-Scotland Symposium although the First Meeting was also jointly sponsored by the Nucleotide Group of the

  • Brownfield Sites Turned Green: Realising Sustainability in Urban Revival
    Brownfields III 131 Brownfield sites turned green: realising sustainability in urban revival K. J. Doick, G. Sellers, T. R. Hutchings & A. J. Moffat Land Regeneration and Urban Greening Group, Forest Research, UK Abstract Greenspaces in the urban environment are widely recognised for their importance in the creation of healthy and sustainable communities. Greenspace establishment on reclaimed brownfield land is an important mechanism for reviving the urban environment. However, greenspace establishment impacts not only social but also environmental, ecological, economical and cultural dimensions. The identification of successes and failures within brownfield regeneration, through qualitative and quantitative evaluation, is paramount for demonstrating whether projects have attained their primary objectives, offer value for money and are sustainable. Currently, tools available for such evaluation fail to evaluate the true plethora of impacts of greenspace establishment and, hence, sustainability. This paper summarises over 110 identified impacts which could be used as evaluation criteria. The development and implementation of a toolbox based on the evaluation criteria is discussed, that would offer a means of determining monitoring needs on a site by site basis and a viable means of evaluating local or national impacts for a variety of urban greenspaces. The final product would provide a defensible mechanism by which redevelopments could be shown to have succeeded, according to a composite of individual functional aspirations and impacts. The lessons learnt through implementation of our toolbox would benefit future projects, enable Best Practice to be demonstrated and improved upon, and identify areas where benefits are not being fully realised. Keywords: brownfields, urban regeneration, greenspaces, impacts, monitoring, evaluation, toolbox, social, environmental.

  • Development of Brownfield Sites: What You Need to Know DEVELOPMENT of BROWNFIELD SITES: WHAT YOU NEED to KNOW
    Development of Brownfield Sites: What You Need To Know DEVELOPMENT OF BROWNFIELD SITES: WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW Drivers for development: the need for brownfield sites Since 2008 the number of new households in the UK has continued to exceed the number of new homes built, giving rise to the current shortage in housing supply, and creating the urgent need for a period of sustained development within new house building. The Government has set two clear targets in relation to house building supply: to deliver 1 million new homes by 2020, and to provide 240,000 homes in 2016. In the need to identify suitable land, the development of housing on brownfield sites will be fundamental in achieving the objectives set by government. A. Proctor Group has over twenty years’ experience in providing solutions for the safe development of brownfield land, and has an extensive range of products and solutions that will cater for most scenarios from typical ground gases such as methane and carbon dioxide. This guide, whilst intended to be relevant to housing, will also be applicable to commercial developments, and to both new build and existing developments, which encounter land affected by contamination. In the drive to reverse the shortage of housing supply, the Government has ambitions that it expects to see local development orders being used to get planning permissions on at least 90% on suitable brownfield sites by 2020. In order to do this, it has implemented a package of support that local authorities can use, with a total of £400 million of government funding being invested to create housing zones on brownfield land.

    Cambridge's 92 Nobel Prize winners part 4 - 1996 to 2015: from stem cell breakthrough to IVF By Cambridge News | Posted: February 01, 2016 Some of Cambridge's most recent Nobel winners Over the last four weeks the News has been rounding up all of Cambridge's 92 Nobel Laureates, which this week comes right up to the present day. From the early giants of physics like JJ Thomson and Ernest Rutherford to the modern-day biochemists unlocking the secrets of our genome, we've covered the length and breadth of scientific discovery, as well as hugely influential figures in economics, literature and politics. What has stood out is the importance of collaboration; while outstanding individuals have always shone, Cambridge has consistently achieved where experts have come together to bounce their ideas off each other. Key figures like Max Perutz, Alan Hodgkin and Fred Sanger have not only won their own Nobels, but are regularly cited by future winners as their inspiration, as their students went on to push at the boundaries they established. In the final part of our feature we cover the last 20 years, when Cambridge has won an average of a Nobel Prize a year, and shows no sign of slowing down, with ground-breaking research still taking place in our midst today.

  • The Nobel Prize in Physiology Or Medicine 2007
    PRESS RELEASE 2007-10-08 The Nobel Assembly at Karolinska Institutet has today decided to award The Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine 2007 jointly to Mario R. Capecchi, Martin J. Evans and Oliver Smithies for their discoveries of “principles for introducing specific gene modifications in mice by the use of embryonic stem cells” SUMMARY This year’s Nobel Laureates have made a series of ground-breaking discoveries concerning embryonic stem cells and DNA recombination in mammals. Their discoveries led to the creation of an immensely powerful technology referred to as gene targeting in mice. It is now being applied to virtually all areas of biomedicine – from basic research to the development of new therapies. Gene targeting is often used to inactivate single genes. Such gene “knockout” experiments have elucidated the roles of numerous genes in embryonic development, adult physiology, aging and disease. To date, more than ten thousand mouse genes (approximately half of the genes in the mammalian genome) have been knocked out. Ongoing international efforts will make “knockout mice” for all genes available within the near future. With gene targeting it is now possible to produce almost any type of DNA modification in the mouse genome, allowing scientists to establish the roles of individual genes in health and disease. Gene targeting has already produced more than five hundred different mouse models of human disorders, including cardiovascular and neuro-degenerative diseases, diabetes and cancer. Modification of genes by homologous recombination Information about the development and function of our bodies throughout life is carried within the DNA. Our DNA is packaged in chromosomes, which occur in pairs – one inherited from the father and one from the mother.
