Funding Research

This article examines the development of a series of newly created research centres in the UK. They are of interest because of the novelty of their mission – to conduct research into the techniques and methods of handling large-scale datasets and, over a three-year period with Research Council support, to develop a portfolio of activities and customers able to sustain the Centre when core funding has expired. Christine Tiler examines the range of experience encountered by the Laboratories and draws out key factors which influenced their development. She pays particular attention to those factors which affected their ability to transform themselves into self-funding research and development organizations.
