科研个屁,宁诺至今有几个全职正教授在校任教?至今出了几个一流的科研成果?
敢不敢列出来? 每次问到这些问题,托儿就开始避实击虚,避重就轻,转移话题,避而不答了,下面等着宁诺托儿们的好戏!
宁诺出的成果少得太可怜了,引进的知名学者数量也太可怜了,根本拿不出来!

宁诺全正职教师300余名,均为英国
诺丁汉大学选聘,要求有国际承认的博士学历,3年以上大学任教经历,全英文授课能力,并在英国诺丁汉面试通过才可任教.诺丁汉大学三大校区的教师采用流动教学模式,即教师在一地任教最多2年,然后调到另一校区任教.
以下是部分科研成果:
引:英国诺丁汉大学是与工业界合作成绩最突出的英国六所大学之一,与许多知名公司、跨国企业开展合作研究。英国诺丁汉大学十分注重参与中国以及宁波的发展,希望与宁波各级政府和企业开展合作,促进经济的发展。
此次,克里斯·鲁德率领由英国诺丁汉大学工程学院科研带头人组成的代表团来到宁波,推介该校的科研成果。在报告会上,英国诺丁汉大学代表团的专家们分别就“科研情况和知识转移中心”、“电化学技术,能源和可持续性研究”、“低碳建筑”、“汽车技术”、“运输和基础设施管理”等课题作了详细的介绍,并和与会企业代表进行了面对面的交流,从中寻求与企业合作的机会。
再引: 据英国广播公司报道,英国科学家发明了一种像牙膏般的“注入式骨质”物料,无须手术,可注射入骨折部分,几分钟内就会硬化,形成一个生物所能分解的支架,让自己的骨骼生长。
这种“注入式骨质”物料上周夺得医学创新奖,由诺丁汉大学教授沙克撤夫发明,现正研究在英国进行临床实验,最快2010年在市场推出。
传统骨折的打石膏过程在硬化时会释放出热力,令周围细胞死亡,所以身体某些部位骨折不能采用,但新物料就没有这种情况。新物料在室温下像牙膏般,注入体内在体温下会硬化
再引:Two leading academics at The University of Nottingham have been admitted as Fellows of the Royal Academy of Engineering.
Hai-Sui Yu, Professor of Geotechnical Engineering and Dean of the Faculty of Engineering and Paul Shayler, Ford Professor and Professor of Mechanical Engineering, have joined a total of 59 new Fellows of the Academy who represent the most eminent names in the profession from the UK and overseas.
Professor David Greenaway, Vice-Chancellor of The University of Nottingham, said: “This is an outstanding achievement for both Professor Yu and Professor Shayler and reflects their outstanding contributions to Engineering in the UK and beyond.”

再引:A University of Nottingham scientist who uses fruit flies to study the genetics of cancer has won a prestigious award from Cancer Research UK.
Dr Marios Georgiou, lecturer in cell biology in the University’s School of Biomedical Sciences, has been awarded a five year Career Establishment Award of £600,000. The award is given every year to new investigators who are set to become the eminent cancer scientists of the future.
Cancer Research UK has awarded a total of £12 million (1千2百万英镑,气死你) to ten exceptional researchers across the country to develop their careers and to support future exciting discoveries which will allow more people to beat cancer than ever before.
最近的一项: A new material that can retain and release heat according to specific temperature requirements could make a significant difference to the cost of heating and cooling buildings, scientists say.
Researchers based at The University of Nottingham Ningbo China (UNNC) believe their invention — which could be used in existing structures as well as new builds — could offer considerable energy savings.
The novel non-deformed energy storage phase change material (PCM) has the unique advantage of possessing a larger energy storage capacity with faster thermal response than existing materials and could be cheaply manufactured.
If, for example, the required optimum temperature in a room is 22°C, the material can be fixed so that it starts absorbing any excess heat above that temperature.
The heat-regulating material, devised by researchers at the University’s Centre for Sustainable Energy Technologies, could be applied anywhere, from walls and roofs to wallpaper.
The material looks like a circular tablet with the circumference of a large coin in the laboratory. It can be manufactured in a variety of shapes and sizes, including so small that it can be sprayed as an unobtrusive microscopic film to surfaces.
The building material was recently awarded a patent application approval in China and patent applications are in the pipeline in other countries.
The scientists responsible for the breakthrough are project leader Professor Jo Darkwa, who is Director of the Centre for Sustainable Energy Technologies, Research Associate Oliver Su and, PhD student Tony Zhou.
Professor Darkwa said: “The construction industry produces more carbon emissions than any other industry in the world — even more than aviation. In China, the building sector is one of the highest energy consuming sectors, accounting for about 30 per cent of total energy usage and also a significant proportion of pollutant emissions.
“This material, if widely used, could make a major impact in the world’s efforts to reduce carbon emission.”
The basic structure of the material has to be engineered for a specific temperature before it is used. The next developmental steps will include creating material which can be used for both heating and cooling applications.
“The material won’t make air-conditioners obsolete, because you still need an air conditioner to control humidity and air movement. This material purely reduces the amount of excessive heat energy in a room,” said Professor Darkwa.
The University is looking to develop the material further as well as commercialise it and already has a number of sponsors and partners involved in the research, including the Ningbo Science and Technology Bureau — which provided important funding and support for the initial two-year research — and private companies based in China.
The material could potentially save up to 35 per cent of energy in a building and scientists believe it could also be used in solar panels and LED (light-emitting diode) lighting to enhance the efficiency of these alternative energy-generating technologies.
Also on the cards for further research at UNNC are:
• Exploring which types of paints can be used with the unique material
• Studies to determine the long-term environmental impacts of the use of the materials
• Ways to improve the production of the material to enhance cost efficiency and ensure the process is environmentally-friendly
The scientists at the Centre for Sustainable Energy Technologies, meanwhile, are involved in various other projects aimed at finding ways to reduce the global carbon footprint emitted by the world’s buildings.
Professor Darkwa and Dr David Chow, who leads the Architectural Environment Engineering degree programme, have played a major role in work behind new building regulation laws in Ningbo, China. Building developers in the city are compelled to include at least one sustainable energy technology, among other steps, to reduce any environmental harm associated with construction.
China’s national government is on a major drive to improve the country’s environmental track record and the University’s scientists are increasingly involved in making recommendations to policy makers at the highest levels.
In October, UNNC will be the site of China’s second international symposium on low carbon buildings when scientists, researchers, government officials and practitioners will gather to present and discuss recent research outputs and demonstration projects.
Professor Nabil Gindy, Vice-Provost for Research and Dean of the Graduate School at UNNC, said: “The University’s strategic investment in research infrastructure to facilitate the advancement of knowledge in sustainable energy technologies is reaping rewards.
“We are very proud of the research excellence of this particular team of scientists, who have proven to be world-class specialists in the field of sustainable energy technologies. The University of Nottingham has a longstanding commitment to the global environmental agenda,” he said.
The University’s cutting-edge research feeds into all teaching programmes and PhD students, like Mr Zhou, also get the opportunity to make valuable contributions to the advancement of science, he noted.
Professor Gindy said: “Vital for our scientific progress here, too, is the huge support we receive from the Ningbo city authorities, who also recognise the importance of minimising environmental harm and placing sustainability at the forefront of all endeavours.
“We are, of course, also grateful for assistance from our research collaborators at other universities and in the private sector,” he said.
The research project was supported through grants from organisations that including the Ningbo government, KK Chung Educational Group, Hong Kong-based Sustainable Sourcing Ltd and China’s Suntech Ltd.
