The University of Plymouth has world-leading expertise in marine science, grounded in 150 years of experience. Researchers are studying how marine species are adapting to increased ocean acidity and warming caused by climate change. One area of focus is how acidic waters can weaken species' skeletons and reduce biodiversity, while some invasive species benefit from changing conditions. Professor Jason Hall-Spencer is a pioneer in using underwater volcanic areas to study climate change impacts and is leading new research on effects in Japan and Asia to increase understanding and awareness of ocean acidification consequences.

Procurement Talent Challenges in the Middle East?
So, we got off to a great start this sunny Sunday, April morning at the marcus evans Defence Procurement Summit 2016 in Dubai. True to their military form, attendees arrived sharply at 8am for registration and the eagerly anticipated Opening Keynote presentation from Chairman Mark Taylor, Former Global Supply Chain, Logistics & Operations Executive, UK Ministry of Defence.
I had the chance to catch up with Mark after his presentation to learn a little more about his expert subject area 'Building Effective and Efficient Procurement Talent'. I was most curious about audience questions. As we know, it's often those questions that go right to the heart of practitioner attendee concerns, and help our attendee solution providers keep their fingers on the pulse, in terms of where the next solutions need to be. And what was that burning question...?
Why must defence procurement and logistics supply chain directors, think more strategically about talent management? Because, says Mark, best-in-defence execution depends on best-in-defence people. It doesn’t matter how much you invest in logistic SCM, technology or processes - if you don’t also invest in people, you won’t succeed.
The document outlines the agenda for the Defence Procurement Summit to be held from April 3-4, 2016 at the Hyatt Regency Dubai Creek Heights in Dubai, UAE. The summit will include keynote presentations, masterclasses, networking sessions, and one-to-one meetings focused on topics such as building effective procurement talent, collaborative defence procurement, optimizing procurement to achieve value while delivering equipment, and accelerating the defence procurement process in various country contexts. Speakers will represent organizations such as the UK Ministry of Defence, Royal Saudi Coast Guard, Indian Police Service, US Department of Defense, Royal Saudi Air Force, Belgian Ministry of Defence, Ghana Navy, and Indian Army.
Why must defence procurement and logistics supply chain directors, think more strategically about talent management? Because best-in-defence execution depends on best-in-defence people. It doesn’t matter how much you invest in logistic SCM, technology or processes - if you don’t also invest in people, you won’t succeed. If you don’t have a well-defined strategy and execution plan upfront around finding, screening, hiring, and on-boarding talent, you will pay for it later in a decrease in operational output, quality and safety issues, and high turnover rates.
The bottom line: Innovation doesn’t just apply to logistic technology, processes & procurement; you also have to innovate the people side of your supply chain, which includes streamlining and automating your talent acquisition process in order to find the right people, with the right skills, in the right places, at the right time - before its too late.
The Plymouth University Alumni Engagement team leads a university-wide program to engage alumni and attract their support. The team manages alumni data and communications, facilitates staff and student engagement with alumni, and benchmarks performance against peer institutions. Key projects include developing an online alumni community, conducting an alumni survey, and collaborating with other departments on student recruitment, employability, fundraising, and enhancing the student experience. Challenges include limited staffing and improving internal visibility and data integration across the university.
The document proposes an inaugural "Alumni Week" at Plymouth University in April 2016 to raise awareness of alumni engagement and showcase how alumni can support the university. Activities will include launching a digital campaign to reconnect with lost alumni, an alumni portrait exhibition, events in key cities, and initiatives to promote student mentoring and employability. The goal is to increase alumni engagement by updating alumni records, recruiting mentors and volunteers, collecting alumni stories, and growing social media followers. The Alumni Advisory Board is asked to provide feedback on the proposed approach.
This document provides a summary of a survey conducted of Plymouth University alumni to understand how they currently engage with the university and how they would like to engage in the future. Key findings include:
