UK science and research facilities will receive £103 million for upgrading the UK’s world class research infrastructure and opening the doors for new breakthroughs.
An online learning platform which aims to help researchers working in environmental sciences to develop new skills, share knowledge and build experience launched on Tuesday the 11th of October 2022. The Geosciences Advanced E-Learning Academy, or GAEA, provides postgraduate education providers and the wider research community with a virtual educational space supported by the UK’s NERC Facilities for geoscience.
BOSCORF runs two short training courses each year for PhD students and Early Career Researchers (ECRs). We also provide one-to-one training on specific instruments, in case your project requires it.
PhD candidate Hannah Muir is visiting BOSCORF this year on several occasions to split sediment cores taken from coastal and marine habitats around the Isle of Man. Her PhD research will investigate the ability of these sediments to store carbon, known as ‘blue carbon’.
