SUMMARY:AI for Researchers: A Beginner’s Guide
DESCRIPTION:We have collaborated with the Centre for Postdoctoral Development in Infrastructure Cities and Energy (C-DICE) to host an AI for beginner’s workshop. \nThis workshop is for you if you want to use Generative AI (e.g. ChatGPT\, Co-Pilot\, Claude) in your research but you’re not sure where to start! \nIt is a workshop for AI beginners\, not AI experts.  You do not need to have any experience of using Generative AI to attend the workshop. \nWe will explore a range of GenAI tools for general users and researchers\, and consider how they work\, how you can optimise them for research tasks\, effective prompt engineering\, and how you can understand AI outputs.  We will also discuss the ethics of Generative AI and guidelines for their use in research. \nA recent ‘Nature’ article found that 25% of researchers sampled were already using AI to write grants.  The pace of AI change is rapid in areas like content production and data analysis.  Being up-to-date with how you can use these tools is becoming essential for researchers. \nThis workshop will help you to become more aware of the potential uses of AI tools in your research. \n(Chat GPT-4 helped to write this workshop summary!) \nBooking:\nBooking is via Inkpath (the C-DICE researcher development platform) if you are not registered with Inkpath follow this link for information on how to register www.cdice.ac.uk/programme/inkpath/ . \nTo reserve your place login to Inkpath then click here to book your place. \nDate and time:\nFriday 17th May 2024\, 10:00-12:00\, Online via Zoom. \nPresenter biography:\nDr Naomi Tyrell is the founder of ‘Research Your Way’ and has over 20 years of research and evaluation experience. \n​Naomi has led research projects funded by the Economic and Social Research Council\, European Commission\, British Academy\, Leverhulme Trust\, University of Plymouth\, charitable trusts and the National Lottery. She is currently a Visiting Research Fellow at the University of Plymouth. \nYou can see Naomi’s published\, peer-reviewed journal articles\, books and book chapters here and here. \nresearchyourway.com

SUMMARY:HyDEX Celebration Event
DESCRIPTION:At this event\, we will be celebrating the success of the HyDEX programme in bringing together academic\, businesses\, local authority and policy makers to support the development of a Hydrogen Economy in the Midlands. \nAfter launching in 2022\, the Research England HyDEX programme is coming to a close in December\, having supported over 50 companies with their training needs\, supporting 12 micro/start-up companies to further develop hydrogen technologies\, over £100 million of funding has been secured for hydrogen projects by our university partners and more than 50 events delivered across the Midlands and beyond. \nWe will be hearing from those who have collaborated and innovated with us as part of the programme to showcase and celebrate their success. We will then look to the future\, beyond HyDEX\, to explore hydrogen developments in the Midlands. The day will also provide opportunities for networking to meet familiar faces and form new collaborations. \nAgenda: (subject to change) \n09.30-10.00 Registration and refreshments / Networking / Exhibition stands \n10.00-10.10 Welcome: Professor Mark Ormerod\, Deputy Vice-Chancellor\, Keele University \n10.10-10.30 Celebrating HyDEX – round up of the innovative work of the HyDEX programme – Professor Martin Freer\, CEO of the Faraday Institution \n10.30-10.45 HyDEX – influencing hydrogen policy: \nProfessor Martin Freer\, CEO of the Faraday Institution \n10.45-11.45 Hydrogen Innovators: (presentation of 3 Innovation Funded projects with Q&A) \n• Green Coordinate – Martin Stanley and Aston University – Amir Amiri \n• Nium – Kerry McLaughlin and Aston University – Amir Amiri \n• Microcabs – Anne Shepherd and John Jostins\, and \nUniversity of Birmingham – Yousif Al-sagheer \n11.45-12.15 Refreshments / Networking / Exhibition stands \n12.15-13.15 HyDEX Skills \nHydrogen Micro-internship programme: Guest speakers: \n· Modular Clinton Global – Clinton Liu\, CEO \n· Intern – Numan Ahmed \n· Air Products PLC – Chloe Tindale\, Hydrogen Strategic Marketing \nIntern at Xodus – Shakana Onyinah Manager \n12.35-13.15 Skills Panel Discussion: Building the Hydrogen Workforce of the Future: Skills\, Training\, and Industry Growth \nPanel: Richard Penn\, Sonya Calman\, Hanlin Li\, Lisa Bingley\, Richard Harper \n13:15-14:15 Lunch\, Showreel + videos / Exhibition stands / networking \n14.15-14.35 Keynote: The future of Hydrogen in the Midlands \nWill Morlidge – East Midlands Combined Authority and East Midlands Hydrogen \n14:35-15:10 Panel: The future of Hydrogen in the Midlands \nPanel chair: Sarah Windrum\, Horiba-Mira \nPanellists: Will Morlidge – East Midlands Combined County Authority\, Kelly Manders – Cadent\, Matt Barney – GeoPura\, Professor Martin Freer – CEO of the Faraday Institution \n15.10-15.30 Closing remarks – Beyond: The HyDEX legacy

SUMMARY:Hydrogen: The case for UK-EU Collaboration\, London
DESCRIPTION:The UK and the EU both see hydrogen as essential to achieving net zero and both have extensive and well-funded policies to support it. Yet progress is far too slow. \nGreen hydrogen represents less than 1% of total production and still costs 6-14 times more than grey hydrogen. Only a tiny fraction of green or blue hydrogen projects have reached final investment decision. \nIn many proposed applications\, hydrogen is being eclipsed by electrification. But in other areas\, hydrogen and its derivatives still look like the best or possibly only option: fertilizer\, shipping\, jet aviation and long-duration grid balancing. \nWhat’s more\, regardless of the higher production costs of cleaner forms of hydrogen\, its system benefits in terms of greater energy security and lower overall energy system costs still look potentially enormous. \nIt is therefore time to take stock. Both the UK and the EU need to ask what their policy is getting wrong and whether they could make faster progress\, and at lower cost\, by working together. \nIn 2024\, HyDEX (Hydrogen Development and Knowledge Exchange) and ERA (Energy Research Accelerator) held a series of summits in Brussels and London where academics\, policymakers and industrialists examined the issue of hydrogen collaboration between the UK and EU. \nAt this FREE event at the Institution of Mechanical Engineers in London\, ERA and HyDEX will be launching their ‘UK-EU Hydrogen Policy Report’ with a host of speakers from industry and the public sector\, outlining the case for UK-EU collaboration\, with specific recommendations to develop hydrogen infrastructure\, markets and policy.
