Ion Beam Users Community Consultation
On Line Registration & Expression of Interest


The EPSRC are reviewing their support for Mid Range Facilities - the details can be found here.

The funding of existing facilities will depend on the outcome of this exercise.

As a part of this review process Sir Michael Thompson chaired a Community Consultation Meeting at the Institute of Physics, 76 Portland Place, London on the 5th of May 2009 starting at 10am.
The outcome of this consultation process will result in a Statement of Needs from the ion beam user community which will be submitted to the EPSRC by the 12th June 2009.

As a member of this community you are expected by the EPSRC to determine its needs.
