STFC has published its Annual Report and Accounts 2014 - 15
STFC is required to lay an Annual Report and Accounts before Parliament each financial year. The publication outlines a year of significant scientific and technological achievement, as well as presenting audited accounts and mandatory information - such as reporting on environmental impact and health and safety data.
Our research fuels significant scientific and technological developments in an extraordinary breadth of areas, from medicine, big data and accelerator science through to space technologies. In the last year, our research has been applied to detect the earliest stages of eye disease, made a breakthrough in the race to solve antibiotic resistance, and is supporting carbon capture and storage to help the UK meet its greenhouse gas emissions target.
We have continued to nurture and strengthen our international partnerships with science organisations and visionary projects such as the Square Kilometre Array (SKA), the European Synchrotron Radiation Facility (ESRF), European Spallation Source (ESS), Institut Laue-Langevin (ILL) and CERN, as they are vital to ensuring the UK remains competitive in a global knowledge economy.
