Designed by the undergraduate Physics Society, the sculpture is based on the telescope鈥檚 original engineering blueprints, ensuring a high level of accuracy and detail. Student James Ruxton spent six months perfecting the design using computer software to model and test different structures, producing a 4,000-page instruction manual. He even custom-designed some Lego pieces, using a 3D printer to create bespoke bricks. 

James and fellow Physics Society members began building the sculpture in late April. The finished model weighs 30kg, with 12.5kg attributed to the dish alone. Due to its weight, the dish had to be reinforced with a steel pole鈥攎irroring a real-life engineering challenge faced during the telescope鈥檚 original construction eighty years ago. 

The sculpture serves as a tribute to the University鈥檚 pioneering role in astrophysics and engineering. It will be on permanent display in the Schuster Building, housed in a specially modified cabinet alongside a Lego model of a Large Hadron Collider detector鈥攂uilt by students a decade ago. 

A unique feature of the sculpture is a brick which was signed by Dame Jocelyn Bell Burnell - the physicist who discovered Pulsars - during her visit to the University to deliver this year鈥檚 annual Bragg Lecture in March.  

The sculpture arrives in time to commemorate the 80th anniversary of Jodrell Bank, a site of immense significance to 黑料网吃瓜爆料 and to science in the UK.  

Professor Chris Parkes, Head of the Physics and Astronomy department, has been supporting the students with their project. He reflected: 鈥淛odrell Bank has always been a symbol of bold innovation - pushing the boundaries of science and engineering from its earliest days.  

In December 1945, physicist Bernard Lovell travelled from 黑料网吃瓜爆料 to a quiet field in Cheshire hoping to explore the use of radar in cosmic ray detection. Instead, this became the start of the Physics Department's world-famous Jodrell Bank radio astronomy observatory.  

Over the following 12 years, Lovell and his team constructed the telescope that now bears his name. Its global importance was confirmed in 1957 when it became the only instrument capable of tracking the rocket carrying Sputnik 1, launched by the Soviet Union during the Space Race.  

Since then, the Lovell Telescope has stood at the forefront of astronomical research. In 2019, the Jodrell Bank Observatory was granted UNESCO World Heritage status, further cementing its legacy as a beacon of scientific innovation. 

Along with Anglia Ruskin University, Birmingham City University, the University of East London and the University of Warwick, 黑料网吃瓜爆料 will help with the adaptation of the EmilyTest GBV Charter framework for the English education system and its alignment with the new Office for Students Condition of Registration around harassment and sexual misconduct, which comes into effect as of 1 August 2025.

The Charter has already proved successful in Scotland, with 13 institutions actively engaging and 6 officially awarded.

The Charter is based on five principles: open and learning, educated and empowered, comprehensive and connected, equal and inclusive, and safe and effective.

EmilyTest was founded by Fiona Drouet after the tragic loss of her 18-year-old daughter, Emily, a law student who died by suicide following physical and psychological abuse by a fellow student while living in halls of residence.

Determined that no other victims and survivors are left under supported and at risk, Fiona established the EmilyTest charity which developed the first of its kind GBV Charter for universities and colleges. The Charter sets minimum standards in gender-based violence prevention, intervention and support, and assists institutions in asking if their policies, practices and procedures would have saved Emily鈥檚 life: 鈥榃ould they pass the Emily test?鈥�.

Dr Simon Merrywest, Executive Director for the Student Experience at 黑料网吃瓜爆料 said: 鈥淲e are proud to be one of the first English universities taking part in the EmilyTest pilot following its successful run in Scotland.

鈥淯nfortunately, gender-based violence remains a prevalent issue throughout the UK higher education system today, and we will continue to do whatever it takes to keep all of our students safe and protected both on campus and in their residences. Having got to know Fiona through a shared interest in suicide prevention, and hearing her give powerful voice to Emily鈥檚 experiences and the aims of EmilyTest, I had no hesitation in us signing up. 

鈥淲e look forward to taking part in this very worthy initiative, learning from it, and making impactful changes over the next six months and beyond.鈥� 

黑料网吃瓜爆料 has an existing specialist safeguarding team, , who provide holistic, trauma-informed support to students who have experienced any form of gender-based violence, harassment or hate. The Advice and Response team is made up of specialist caseworkers who provide confidential, practical, and emotional support to students directly and signposting to statutory and other services.

The University has made campus safety a key priority, adopting the SafeZone app in recent years to allow for faster potential response times when urgent help is required on campus or in the city. The SafeZone app can be used to 鈥榗heck in鈥� at any time of the day, quickly and discreetly call for assistance, and get medical help quickly.

黑料网吃瓜爆料 has also partnered with its Students鈥� Union to provide sexual violence support drop-in sessions which are open to anyone looking for support.

By collaborating with community groups, organisations, and schools to expand their expertise and experience, service learning allows students to deliver essential and relevant services to local residents, benefiting both the community and the students themselves.

At times, obtaining legal advice becomes essential. Yet, finding affordable and reliable legal guidance can be a significant challenge for some individuals.

Believing that legal advice should be universally accessible, The University established the Justice Hub in a prominent location on 黑料网吃瓜爆料's Oxford Road. This initiative enables students from the School of Social Sciences to join forces with a shared aim of serving the community. The Hub provides free legal advice and guidance on a wide range of issues.

Law lecturer and Justice Hub lead, Philip Drake, described its role: 鈥淭he Justice Hub is a collective term for various free legal advice projects managed together. Our flagship initiative is the Legal Advice Centre, which is fully integrated into our curriculum.

鈥淭his year, 328 students are already signed up, reflecting the high demand from both students and the local community. Last year, we handled close to 1,500 enquiries seeking legal assistance.鈥�

Supported by University staff and professional lawyers who volunteer their expertise, the Justice Hub is primarily student-driven, offering future solicitors and legal advisors hands-on experience with the inequalities in the legal system while encouraging them to make a positive impact.

Phil said: 鈥淲e incorporate reflective practice into the work. It鈥檚 about more than developing legal skills; it involves thinking critically about the fairness of the law, its negative impact on the most disadvantaged and often marginalised, and understanding the reasons behind it. Experiencing a client breaking down in tears during a meeting is something that cannot be taught in a traditional classroom setting.

鈥淚t鈥檚 inspiring to witness students鈥� growth from where they begin to their achievements at the end. Whatever their future paths, we want them to carry a sense of social responsibility with them.鈥�

One of the Justice Hub鈥檚 initiatives, the 黑料网吃瓜爆料 Innocence Project, focuses on assisting the wrongfully convicted and fostering reforms in the justice system.

Recently, the Project received the Greater 黑料网吃瓜爆料 Pro Bono Award for 'Best Group of Students', while the University was also a finalist for 'Best Educational Institution'.

Undergraduate social anthropology student, Honey Fisher, who works within the Justice Hub, commented: "Being a Justice Hub intern has been an amazing chance to gain practical experience and develop essential skills for a career in law.

"By attending client interviews, we saw how members of the local community face a broad range of legal challenges and recognised how crucial services like those provided by the Justice Hub are in bridging the legal aid gap."

Many people take access to quality dental care and trustworthy health information for granted. However, for some, these basic services remain out of reach.

University of 黑料网吃瓜爆料 dental students offer free treatments at the University's Emergency Dental Clinic, serving around 2,000 patients annually. This allows the students to refine their skills while addressing local communities' needs and tackling significant dental health disparities, a known issue in the north-west.

Striving to narrow dental inequalities, students also provide care to refugees and other minority groups. Recognising the impact of dental health inequalities on children, the University鈥檚 dental students participate in a charity-led initiative, visiting schools to educate children on oral hygiene's importance.

Increasingly, University of 黑料网吃瓜爆料 students engage directly with industries for mutual benefit. For example, the University鈥檚 Fashion, Business and Technology School has partnered with leading fashion industry companies.

In 鈥榠ndustry-live projects鈥�, students act as consultants, addressing real-world briefs that align with the industry鈥檚 strategic goals. Over 200 students collaborate with these partners during key points of the semester.

Dr Julian Skyrme, executive director of social responsibility and civic engagement at 黑料网吃瓜爆料, highlighted: "The efforts of our law students are just one example of the service learning we have implemented at the University.

"Our dental students provide oral health checks for homeless individuals, drama students collaborate with offenders in the criminal justice system, and management students offer consultancy to non-profit organisations.

"As we consider the University's direction for the next decade, we envision every student contributing positively to society as part of their education."

Gifts from donors also support programmes such as the 黑料网吃瓜爆料 Access Programme and Undergraduate Access Scholarship, enabling more students than ever to access life-changing opportunities here at 黑料网吃瓜爆料.

The effects of this response to the crisis stretched beyond the University, making waves in Westminster discourse and impacting policy.

Today, the University鈥檚 efforts continue to positively influence conversations around financial support for students across the UK, while the University itself remains dedicated to helping students reach their full potential.

Lexie Baynes, Union Affairs Officer, University of 黑料网吃瓜爆料 Students' Union said: "I'm so proud that this collaborative piece of work between the University and Students' Union has been recognised by Times Higher and the sector.

鈥淭o me, the key takeaway here is that colleagues at the University and the Students' Union elected Executive Teams worked in partnership on a direct and deliverable package of support for our 48,000 students during the cost of living crisis and financial pressures, putting students' needs at the forefront of our actions. Huge congratulations to all those involved in the work, and the current Students' Union team looks forward to continuing to work in partnership, to ensure that any barriers students face can be overcome."

Anna Lomas, Employer Engagement Manager at 黑料网吃瓜爆料 and chair of the group in charge of directing student support said: 鈥淐olleagues from across 黑料网吃瓜爆料 and the Students' Union are delighted to be recipients of this award and to be recognised formally for the hard work and commitment they gave to supporting our students with the challenges they were facing during the escalating cost of living crisis. 

鈥淥ur sector leading and truly collaborative approach demonstrates our collective dedication to student experience at the University. Thank you to everyone who contributed their energy, experience and expertise.鈥�

黑料网吃瓜爆料 also received the award for Research Project of the Year: STEM for its work developing the world鈥檚 first bedside genetic test to prevent babies from going deaf.

One in 500 babies carry a gene that causes permanent deafness when given gentamicin, an antibiotic which is commonly used in intensive care. Researchers from 黑料网吃瓜爆料 developed the rapid bedside test and trialled it on 751 babies in neonatal units in 黑料网吃瓜爆料 and Liverpool, and the NHS is exploring how the test can become part of routine clinical care. The technology could potentially save the hearing of 180 babies in the UK every year.

Dr John McDermott, NIHR Doctoral Research Fellow at the University of 黑料网吃瓜爆料 said: "This award is a testament to the hard work of so many people from across the University and at the hospital. With the genedrive technology set to be rolled out across the country as part of PALOH-UK, we're excited to see how the impact of this intervention will continue to grow."

, which aims to improve the way prosthetics for people who have suffered traumatic limb loss work, wowed the judges at the (iGEM) 2024 Grand Jamboree.

The non-profit iGEM Foundation hosts an international student competition each year to promote education and collaboration among new generations of synthetic biologists.

Human-machine interfaces are becoming more advanced, with new technologies harnessing the body鈥檚 electric signals to control devices.

Artificial limbs, known as myoelectric prosthetics, are directed by electrical signals generated by muscle contractions in the residual limb, which can be translated to motion.

However, heavy batteries and motors in myoelectric prosthetics can cause excessive sweating and make the electrodes slip from their contact points, resulting in discomfort and imprecise limb movement.

To solve the problem, the team proposed using synthetic biology to create tiny specially designed wires that work with skin cells.

They engineered a type of bacteria 鈥� Escherichia coli 鈥� to express tiny, hair-like structures known as pili (e-pili) found on electricity conducting bacteria called Geobacter sulfurreducens.

By combining the Escherichia coli with a protein-binding peptide, the team created nanowires that specifically target and bind to proteins at the skin鈥檚 surface, potentially enhancing the precision of an artificial limb.

The 黑料网吃瓜爆料 iGEM team were Damian Ungureanu, Devika Shenoy, Francisco Correia, Janet Xu, Jia Run Dong, Usrat Nubah, Yuliia Anisimova, and Zainab Atique-Ur-Rehman.

, said: 鈥淚鈥檓 delighted our team won gold at the iGEM 2024 Grand Jamboree for an innovation which could make a difference for people who need artificial limbs.

She added: 鈥淚 have supervised the 黑料网吃瓜爆料 iGEM teams together with Professor Rainer Breitling since 2013.

鈥淥ur teams, based in the (MIB), have been very successful and have achieved a gold medal all but one of the years that we participated - which is quite an achievement.

鈥淚n 2016, the team also scooped the special award for 鈥楤est Computational Model鈥� and were shortlisted for the 鈥楤est Education and Public Engagement鈥� award.鈥�

This year鈥檚 黑料网吃瓜爆料 iGEM team worked in the MIB labs throughout the summer, with financial and logistical support from the MIB, School of Biological Sciences, School of Social Sciences/Department of Social Anthropology, School of Arts Languages and Cultures, and the Future Biomanufacturing Research Hub.

The team also worked with the (AMBS) to comprehensively explore the social and economic implications of their ideas using a (RRI) approach.

The competition provides an interdisciplinary learning opportunity for students outside biology, by encouraging participants to think beyond their lab work.

Damian Ungureanu, second year Biochemistry student, said: 鈥淲orking with people from different cultural and academic backgrounds has allowed me to substantially develop my communication skills. Even though this was a synthetic biology project, the human practices aspect was just as important as the science. Winning the gold medal felt like the culmination of one year of hard work.鈥�

Devika Shenoy, second year Biomedical Sciences student, said: 鈥淚 am grateful to have gotten the opportunity to work with so many like-minded individuals and under the guidance of skilled advisors and PIs. iGEM has truly broadened my horizons and understanding of how science and synthetic biology can be used to solve world issues.鈥�

We have notified the police, who are investigating.  

This was an act of vandalism and makes no contribution whatsoever to a better understanding of the current conflict in the Middle East.   

Over more than a year, we have seen peaceful protests on campus and the exchange of strongly held views. We welcome this as part of our fundamental role as a university 鈥� a place dedicated to the discussion of often difficult ideas and beliefs. 

Alongside our deep commitment to academic freedom is our commitment to the values of community, tolerance and respect.  Freedom and inclusion are at the heart of everything we do.  

We regularly host many events which discuss all sides of the current conflict in the Middle East, including a debate last week in Whitworth Hall. Although attempts were made to stop the event, it proceeded in full, and as difficult as the discussion was, different perspectives on the conflict were aired and debated, as they should be.  

We know these issues are of great concern to our University community, particularly those with friends, family or close ties to the region, and we express our sympathy for all those caught up in the escalating conflict, as well as our hope for peace. 

We are speaking regularly to our staff, students, and the local community, to ensure we are listening to their concerns and creating the conditions for mutual understanding, as well as a safe and respectful environment on our campus. The safety and well-being of all our students is paramount. 

None of these discussions are easy. They can cause discomfort and pain to many in our community. However, it is crucial in a free society that they occur, within the law, and always with the aim of seeking mutual understanding, and not vilification or hate.

An alarming level of microplastic fragments were found to be present throughout the intertidal mudflat sediments within the Medina Estuary, a Site of Special Scientific Interest (SSSI).  

Microplastics are particles which measure less than five millimetres, and exist in an array of shapes and forms. They cause pollution by entering natural ecosystems from a variety of sources, including run-off from land-based sources and wastewater discharge from Combined Sewer Overflows (CSOs).  

Liberty Turrell, who works as a volunteer for the Hampshire & Isle of Wight Wildlife Trust, collected mudflat sediment from 16 sample sites during low tides for her BA (Hons) Geography dissertation. Analysis of the mud under laboratory conditions discovered three different microplastic shapes: fibres, fragments and beads. Microfibre was the most frequent occurring microplastic shape (99% of all microplastics were microfibres) occurring at all 16 sites.  

Microplastics pollution occurs in estuarine sediments around the world - however, the results from the Isle of Wight are particularly alarming. For comparison, the median value of microplastic concentrations found in the Medina Estuary exceeds the values of estuaries studied in China and India by more than two-fold. 

Jamie Marsh, director of nature recovery (Wilder Wight, Solent & Seas) at Hampshire & Isle of Wight Wildlife Trust said: 鈥淭he estuary鈥檚 mudflats are of significant ecological importance. They support a diverse variety of wildlife providing habitats and breeding areas for a huge array of species including wading birds, crustacea, invertebrates and fish, all of which thrive within the Medina鈥檚 intertidal mudflats.  

鈥淭he discovery of the high level of microplastics, and of microfibres in particular, in this precious environment is truly staggering. Microfibres cause a significant risk to wildlife as they can easily bundle together. The entangled fibres form a clump and pose a great threat to marine species as the bundles act in the same way as larger plastic items by blocking feeding passageways in the gastrointestinal tract. This can obstruct the movement of food, disrupt the digestive process and cause eventual death.鈥� 

The study also reveals that wastewater discharge from two CSOs with high annual spill rates is a major source of microplastic release into the aquatic environment, and are likely responsible for the immense quantities of fibres reported throughout the Medina Estuary. Dodnor Lane and Fairlee CSO鈥檚 together discharged wastewater into the upper estuary for 2,932 hours in 2023 (over 225 total spill events) according to Event Duration Monitoring datasets published by the Environment Agency.  

Professor of Physical Geography said: 鈥淩esearch at the University of 黑料网吃瓜爆料 has shown that the microplastic contamination of riverbeds is a clear signal that wastewater treatment is not taking place as it should. Effective treatment can remove up to 95% of the microplastic load in wastewater.  

鈥淢icroplastic contamination of the Medina Estuary is a concern because it is an area of ecological importance. The Medina Estuary receives high volumes of untreated wastewater from Southern Water assets and the presence of primary microplastic particles provides a clear link to the wastewater system."

"This research helps to resolve a global critical gap in the current studies of microplastics in estuaries," said report author Liberty Turrell. 鈥淯nfortunately, the results are shocking. The severe contamination of estuarine environments affected by wastewater discharge takes place across the world and sadly this includes the Isle of Wight. The results clearly show that the prevalence and abundance of microplastics found in the intertidal mudflat sediments highlights a severe contamination issue of the Medina Estuary.鈥�

According to data published by the Environment Agency (2024), there were 464,056 monitored 鈥榮pill鈥� events into waterways by water companies in England during 2023, a 54% increase from 2022. The 29,494 spills into waterways in Kent, Sussex, Hampshire and the Isle of Wight by Southern Water lasted a total duration of 317,285 hours (Environment Agency, 2024). Spill events are responsible for the release of huge quantities of microplastics into our waterways. 

The Scholarship is aimed at first-year undergraduate students nominated by participating universities for the Scheme, and seeks to address the disproportionate under-representation of Black men from less socially mobile backgrounds in large commercial law firms and other careers in the City of London.
