The Pirbright Institute has joined the Campaign for Science and Engineering (CaSE) - the leading independent voice for UK R&D.
A charity supported by a diverse membership, CaSE includes businesses, universities, professional bodies, research charities and individuals.
Its members span the breadth of R&D – including discovery research, science, engineering, and innovation across the public, private, and charitable sectors.
Professor Bryan Charleston MRCVS FRS, Director and CEO of The Pirbright Institute, said:
“We are delighted to be working with CaSE, whose mission to champion UK investment in R&D aligns with our shared commitment to innovative bioscience. The organisation’s collaborations within UK R&D, access to policymakers and global connections help to accelerate UK research.”
Pirbright joins CaSE alongside Keele University and Liverpool School of Tropical Medicine, together with returning members, the Epilepsy Society and Johnson Matthey.
Dr Alicia Greated, Executive Director, Campaign for Science and Engineering (CaSE), said:
“I am very proud that these five organisations see the importance of CaSE’s work, and I am delighted to welcome them to our membership. As a charity, CaSE is dependent on the support of our members. We have a broad membership spanning the R&D sector, and this is further increased today with the addition of these fantastic organisations. We are excited to work with them all to pursue our shared ambition for UK R&D.”
