Hard Brexit
Means that the United Kingdom leaves the EU Single Market and trades under World Trade Organization rules
Under WTO rules, each member must grant the same market access—including charging the same tariffs—to all other members as the most favoured nation
Soft Brexit
Involves the option of staying in the Single Market (like Norway)
As a member of the European Economic Area (EEA), Norway has a free trade agreement with the European Union, which means that there are no tariffs on trade between the two

Phenomics assisted breeding in crop improvementIshaGoswami9
As the population is increasing and will reach about 9 billion upto 2050. Also due to climate change, it is difficult to meet the food requirement of such a large population. Facing the challenges presented by resource shortages, climate
change, and increasing global population, crop yield and quality need to be improved in a sustainable way over the coming decades. Genetic improvement by breeding is the best way to increase crop productivity. With the rapid progression of functional
genomics, an increasing number of crop genomes have been sequenced and dozens of genes influencing key agronomic traits have been identified. However, current genome sequence information has not been adequately exploited for understanding
the complex characteristics of multiple gene, owing to a lack of crop phenotypic data. Efficient, automatic, and accurate technologies and platforms that can capture phenotypic data that can
be linked to genomics information for crop improvement at all growth stages have become as important as genotyping. Thus,
high-throughput phenotyping has become the major bottleneck restricting crop breeding. Plant phenomics has been defined as the high-throughput, accurate acquisition and analysis of multi-dimensional phenotypes
during crop growing stages at the organism level, including the cell, tissue, organ, individual plant, plot, and field levels. With the rapid development of novel sensors, imaging technology,
and analysis methods, numerous infrastructure platforms have been developed for phenotyping.
Toxic effects of heavy metals : Lead and Arsenicsanjana502982
Heavy metals are naturally occuring metallic chemical elements that have relatively high density, and are toxic at even low concentrations. All toxic metals are termed as heavy metals irrespective of their atomic mass and density, eg. arsenic, lead, mercury, cadmium, thallium, chromium, etc.
Deep Behavioral Phenotyping in Systems Neuroscience for Functional Atlasing a...Ana Luísa Pinho
Functional Magnetic Resonance Imaging (fMRI) provides means to characterize brain activations in response to behavior. However, cognitive neuroscience has been limited to group-level effects referring to the performance of specific tasks. To obtain the functional profile of elementary cognitive mechanisms, the combination of brain responses to many tasks is required. Yet, to date, both structural atlases and parcellation-based activations do not fully account for cognitive function and still present several limitations. Further, they do not adapt overall to individual characteristics. In this talk, I will give an account of deep-behavioral phenotyping strategies, namely data-driven methods in large task-fMRI datasets, to optimize functional brain-data collection and improve inference of effects-of-interest related to mental processes. Key to this approach is the employment of fast multi-functional paradigms rich on features that can be well parametrized and, consequently, facilitate the creation of psycho-physiological constructs to be modelled with imaging data. Particular emphasis will be given to music stimuli when studying high-order cognitive mechanisms, due to their ecological nature and quality to enable complex behavior compounded by discrete entities. I will also discuss how deep-behavioral phenotyping and individualized models applied to neuroimaging data can better account for the subject-specific organization of domain-general cognitive systems in the human brain. Finally, the accumulation of functional brain signatures brings the possibility to clarify relationships among tasks and create a univocal link between brain systems and mental functions through: (1) the development of ontologies proposing an organization of cognitive processes; and (2) brain-network taxonomies describing functional specialization. To this end, tools to improve commensurability in cognitive science are necessary, such as public repositories, ontology-based platforms and automated meta-analysis tools. I will thus discuss some brain-atlasing resources currently under development, and their applicability in cognitive as well as clinical neuroscience.

DERIVATION OF MODIFIED BERNOULLI EQUATION WITH VISCOUS EFFECTS AND TERMINAL V...Wasswaderrick3
In this book, we use conservation of energy techniques on a fluid element to derive the Modified Bernoulli equation of flow with viscous or friction effects. We derive the general equation of flow/ velocity and then from this we derive the Pouiselle flow equation, the transition flow equation and the turbulent flow equation. In the situations where there are no viscous effects , the equation reduces to the Bernoulli equation. From experimental results, we are able to include other terms in the Bernoulli equation. We also look at cases where pressure gradients exist. We use the Modified Bernoulli equation to derive equations of flow rate for pipes of different cross sectional areas connected together. We also extend our techniques of energy conservation to a sphere falling in a viscous medium under the effect of gravity. We demonstrate Stokes equation of terminal velocity and turbulent flow equation. We look at a way of calculating the time taken for a body to fall in a viscous medium. We also look at the general equation of terminal velocity.

Nutraceutical market, scope and growth: Herbal drug technologyLokesh Patil
As consumer awareness of health and wellness rises, the nutraceutical market—which includes goods like functional meals, drinks, and dietary supplements that provide health advantages beyond basic nutrition—is growing significantly. As healthcare expenses rise, the population ages, and people want natural and preventative health solutions more and more, this industry is increasing quickly. Further driving market expansion are product formulation innovations and the use of cutting-edge technology for customized nutrition. With its worldwide reach, the nutraceutical industry is expected to keep growing and provide significant chances for research and investment in a number of categories, including vitamins, minerals, probiotics, and herbal supplements.

Editor's Notes
Summarise talk:
Swift overview of UK in space recognising that the audience is the ‘initiated’ and that many speakers today have already more than covered the basics.
Sector organisation and jobs balance
Qualifications and skills required by industry and described by them in both the IGS Strategy and recent survey of employers
Other tips for a career in space.
Many of you have asked me what the UK Space Agency does – we’re the government agency responsible for civil space policy and through which the UK contributes as an ESA member. Responsible for a large element (but not all) of UK Government funding.
Now there are approx. 50 spacecraft in orbit with UK government funding and approx. 50 in development. These are being used to…
Overview of sector as it is and how it is growing (~7.3 % at last Size and Health of the UK Space Industry report – October 2014)
Downstream dominates at £10.1bn BUT a cautionary comment – a big part of that is SKY!
IGS Restack target of 100,000 more jobs supported and a sector worth £14.2 billion with a UK share of the global market of 10%.
Gender balance, whilst it’s not perfect, I can say that women have every much as good a chance of being taken on as men.
I’ve been asked today about the opportunities for PhDs – many companies do employ lots of PHDs BUT can I temper your enthusiasm? As with any new employee your usefulness will all depend on how applicable your skill set is to the business, and how much additional training (or upskilling) you’ll need before you become useful! Demonstrating that is up to you.
Cannot mention jobs in space without mentioning Tim Peake.
Tim is the first British ESA astronaut and is on a mission to the ISS for 6 months. He applied for the role (like many before him) having trained through the military, and remains an Army Reservist.
Obviously, becoming an astronaut is rare (~500 astronauts in total) but there are many 1,000s of different roles which support each astronaut flight, be it astronaut fitness and training, ground control or the engineers working on spacecraft such as ISS modules.
Investment by the UK Space Agency in Europe’s space programme secures a strong return resulting in orders for British businesses and subsequent jobs in fields ranging from satellite communications to Mars rovers and nuclear space batteries to weather satellites.
The UK also joined the European Life and Physical Sciences Programme (ELIPS) programme. A programme to exploit the unique environment of space for fundamental and applied science in health, biology, materials and physics. Benefits of joining this programme include insights into the human ageing process and new lightweight materials for jet engines. This will generate an array of jobs in the UK.
And there are currently 34,300 people working directly in the space sector in the UK alone, with 72,000 other jobs supported and a predicted increase in jobs by 100,000 by 2030.
People who work in the space sector work in university research departments, government organisations and in the private sector companies, in large and small organisations (SMEs)
These jobs will include engineers, researchers of all kinds, Technicians, Systems and software experts.

Image 2 - ESA's Navigation Facility, located at ESOC, Darmstadt, calculates and predicts highly accurate GPS, Galileo and GLONASS (Russian GPS) satellite orbits, in near-real time, every six hours, around the clock. These data are then used to improve GPS position accuracy, paving the way to even more sophisticated applications and scientific studies, such as large-scale climate monitoring and tracking of long-term changes in Earth’s geology.

Image 4: Venturing out on the sea ice north of Greenland as part of the 2014 campaign to validate measurements from CryoSat. Keeping an eye out for polar bears, the ground team took measurements of snow depth and ice depth as well as detailing ice properties. Along with data acquired from the air, these measurements are compared with data from CryoSat to ensure it is delivering true information about Earth’s changing ice.
Besides the degrees and experience described above, employers often state they want the following skills.
These are especially important skills to have in the downstream and were found to be lacking in current graduates by employers contributing to the recent IGS Restack.
Or head to Future Morph’s space page:

FutureMorph’s space page: http://www.futuremorph.org/my-future-finder/space/
For 3 they will also be important to understanding and using the data derived from space.
To be blunt – you can be confident in the skills and knowledge you are learning, but don’t be arrogant! You will need to be a good team player, and that means getting on with people, listening and being able to put your point across.
Again these are just some of the UK space companies I’ve mentioned. Some of these, run graduate and/or apprenticeship schemes. In all cases enquiring with them directly or sending them a speculative CV may give you a clearer idea of what they require in a job applicant.
