This week the messages of good luck and congratulation go to a varied mix of people and projects! It is really nice to see a large bid going into the Leverhulme Trust from Barry Richards in the Media School; an intriguing project about emotion while playing interactive games. Zulfiqar Khan has also submitted a large bid to EPSRC which I am pleased to say was reviewed by the Research Peer Review Scheme. In HSC Heather Hartwell and Clive Andrews has submitted bids for various pieces of well-being work and/or medical training while Rob Britton in applied Sciences has submitted something to the CABI. On the congratulations side Julie Robson (Business School) has just secured a grant from Friends Provident for work looking at the relationship between pawnbrokers and their clients and Richard Gordon of the School of Tourism has secured a small piece of training with St. John’s School in Leatherhead. So good luck and congratulations to all concerned!
