  • University of Manchester (Uom) Unit of Assessment (Uoa): B10 (Mathematical Sciences) A
    Environment template (REF5) Institution: University of Manchester (UoM) Unit of Assessment (UoA): B10 (Mathematical Sciences) a. Overview The UoA comprises the School of Mathematics (SoM) at Manchester, which is one of the largest unified mathematics departments in the country: 75 academic staff, 1167 UGs, 115 PGTs and 123 PGR students. It has had a long and distinguished history in pure mathematics (notably Adams, Mordell, Newman and Turing covering algebra, foundations of computer science, number theory, topology), applied mathematics (Goldstein, Lamb, Lighthill, Richardson covering continuum mechanics, waves, numerical analysis) and statistics (Priestley). The UoA sits within the Faculty of Engineering and Physical Sciences (EPS), which is composed of 9 Schools, over 600 academic staff and 70 specialist research centres and groups. The £40m bespoke Alan Turing Building is home to the UoA and places it, geographically and academically, at the heart of the University. The UoA’s size has enabled critical mass to be established across many areas of mathematics; thus, it is now home to world-leading research that both shapes the discipline and extends its reach. The UoA is divided, mainly for the purposes of teaching, into three groups: Pure Mathematics, Applied Mathematics and Probability & Statistics, although, as described below, the formal divides between areas are becoming increasingly blurred. Current research interests include the traditionally pure areas of algebra, analysis, mathematical logic, geometry and topology and, in applied mathematics, dynamical systems, fluid dynamics, solid mechanics, inverse problems, mathematical finance and waves. The UoA also has a strong tradition in numerical analysis and well established groups in probability theory and statistics together with the recent introduction of financial mathematics and actuarial sciences.

Polar bundles of microtubules (MTs) constitute their structural backbones and are highways for life- sustaining transport between proximal cell bodies and distal synapses. Any morphogenetic changes of axons during development, plastic rearrangement, regeneration or degeneration depend on dynamic changes of these MT bundles. A key mechanism for implementing such changes is the coordinated polymerisation and depolymerisation at the plus ends of MTs within these bundles.

  • North Campus Strategic Regeneration Framework May 2017
    Corridor Manchester: North Campus Strategic Regeneration Framework May 2017 Introduction This Strategic Regeneration Framework (SRF) has been prepared for Manchester City Council, with the intention that it can be used as a guide for the future redevelopment of Manchester’s North Campus – a site that is located south-west of Piccadilly Station; to the west of the Mayfield site and to the east of Oxford Road. The North Campus is one of the few large, centrally located sites in Manchester city centre yet to undergo major regeneration. There are vast opportunities that have been identified in the area that will allow this part of Manchester to reconnect with the city and with other redevelopments in its vicinity. It is anticipated that the North Campus will be able to provide and deliver numerous social, economic and environmental benefits to Manchester and to the wider North West region. This SRF analyses the existing location and identifies key characteristics which make North Campus a unique area of the city. An indicative masterplan has been proposed which brings together the key objectives and principles described in this framework, and sets out a framework that will help to ensure the success of the North Campus development. Key Contributors The North Campus SRF has been supported by a high calibre professional team with recognised urban design credentials and leading specialisms in the field of progressive, sustainable working environments for public and private sector clients. The team comprises the following: Bennetts Associates

  • A History of the University of Manchester Since 1951
    Pullan2004jkt 10/2/03 2:43 PM Page 1 University ofManchester A history ofthe HIS IS THE SECOND VOLUME of a history of the University of Manchester since 1951. It spans seventeen critical years in T which public funding was contracting, student grants were diminishing, instructions from the government and the University Grants Commission were multiplying, and universities feared for their reputation in the public eye. It provides a frank account of the University’s struggle against these difficulties and its efforts to prove the value of university education to society and the economy. This volume describes and analyses not only academic developments and changes in the structure and finances of the University, but the opinions and social and political lives of the staff and their students as well. It also examines the controversies of the 1970s and 1980s over such issues as feminism, free speech, ethical investment, academic freedom and the quest for efficient management. The author draws on official records, staff and student newspapers, and personal interviews with people who experienced the University in very 1973–90 different ways. With its wide range of academic interests and large student population, the University of Manchester was the biggest unitary university in the country, and its history illustrates the problems faced by almost all British universities. The book will appeal to past and present staff of the University and its alumni, and to anyone interested in the debates surrounding higher with MicheleAbendstern Brian Pullan education in the late twentieth century. A history of the University of Manchester 1951–73 by Brian Pullan with Michele Abendstern is also available from Manchester University Press.
