The value of collaborating between disciplines and sectors What can happen when academic researchers across multiple disciplines collaborate with industry to become highly innovative? Ruth Webster of the University of Cambridge received the AstraZeneca prize in synthetic chemistry. She developed iron-based catalysts that can be used at low loadings, significantly reducing waste in industrial processes. She worked with industry and researchers using DFT simulations and advanced analytical techniques. What can we learn from this? - Scientists need to collaborate ever more broadly to reach the frontiers of what′s known. This requires a broad understanding but also the skills to communicate with each other - Collaborations between academia and industry can be set up so that academics can publish their research and advance their academic careers. You can read this article published in Chemistry World about the work of Ruth Webster. If you′re interested in learning more about how academic researchers can collaborate with industry, you might be interested in our workshop "How to get research funding from industry," which we developed with David Giltner. https://lnkd.in/e85ezG9Q https://lnkd.in/eGSt3ThG #industrycollaboration #industryfunding

?? ?? ?? I suspect that every scientist hopes their work will have a positive impact on the world.??? ?? ?? Cather Simpson, professor of physics and chemistry at The University of Auckland and founder of The Photon Factory discovered that collaborating with industry allows her to make a bigger impact than she ever imagined. “[???? ?????????? ???????????????? ??????????????] ???????????????????? ?????????????? ?????? ?????? ?? ?????????????? ?????????? ?????? ???????????? ?? ?????????? ???????? ???????? ???? ????????. ??’?? ?????????????? ???? ???????????? ?????????????????? ???????? ?????????????? ?????????? ???? ?????????????? ???? ???????????? ???? ?????????????????????? ???????????? ???? ?? ???????????????? ?????????????????? ???????????????? ???? 15 ??????????, ?????? ?????? ???????? ???? ???????? ?????????????? ???????????????? ???????? ?????? ???????????? ?? ?????? ???????????????????? ??????????.” Check out the full article below.

Moving from academia to industry is one of the biggest shifts scientists face - I personally remember how hard it was! It’s no longer just about finding the “right” answer—it’s about learning to play a game without fixed solutions. That’s why I’m thrilled to welcome David Giltner from TurningScience for a LinkedIn Live session on November 8 at 4 pm CET! David’s insights are invaluable for anyone transitioning from research to industry, especially if you’re still early in your career. Together, we’ll discuss why treating your career like a game, rather than a formula, can help you thrive outside the academic world. This topic means a lot to me because I’ve seen how empowering it can be when scientists approach their careers with flexibility and a growth mindset. David’s perspective offers a refreshing approach that can help many scientists unlock new potential in industry. I hope you’ll join us and take away some valuable advice that could reshape your future. Don’t miss out—whether you’re a PhD student, postdoc, or early-career researcher, this session is packed with insights just for you. See you live on LinkedIn, next Friday at 4 pm CET! PS: Feel free to share it with other academics!

Early career faculty face many challenges, and securing research funding is perhaps the biggest. Excerpts from the article below that grabbed my attention: ‘???????? ?????? ???????? ????????????, ???????? ???????? 30% ???? ?????????????????? ?????????????????? ???????? ???????? ???? ?????? ???????? ???????? ????????????.’ ‘???????????? ????, ???? ?????????????????? ?????????????????? ???? ?????????????????? ???????????? ?????????????? ?????? ?????? ???????????????????? ???? ??????????????????, ??????????????????, ?????? ?????????????? ?????? 10 ???????????????? ???????????? ???????????? ???? ?????????????? ?????????? ???? ???????????? 2022 - ???? ?????? ?????????????? ??????????????.’ That's why many early career researchers are turning to building partnerships with industry as a way to build their research programs. And they find that the benefits of these partnerships go far beyond just more funding! I have some great examples of researchers who partner with companies to build their research funding profile. DM and I'm happy to share what I've learned. Thanks to Alex Lopatka for calling attention to this important issue. #industrycollaboration #researchfunding #earlycareerfaculty
