Industrial Training School

Siemens Molecular Imaging organises the ARIS*ER Industrial Training School to give the people involved in the network a better understanding of how the industry thinks about research, commercialisation, transfer of knowledge and exploitation of research results. Here you can find the specific objectives, some practical details and the agenda of it.

Objectives

The first objective of the Industrial Training School is to increase the understanding of industrial thinking, intellectual property, and commercialisation of research results. The sub objectives are:

A secondary objective that will be covered is to give to some ESR (Early Stage Researchers) the opportunity of presenting their research and results to a company. It is also foreseen to give ARIS*ER researchers the opportunity to have some follow-up scientific meetings.

Where: The School will be held in the offices of Siemens Molecular Imaging, whose location is in the heart of the city (see map below), by the bus and train stations:

Siemens Molecular Imaging

23-38 Hythe Bridge Street

Oxford OX12EP, United Kingdom

Hotel: Oxford has many hotels and places to stay. Here you are three options recommended from our secretary (all at a walking distance from the office, see map):

H1)   Royal Oxford, around 195EUR: http://www.royaloxfordhotel.co.uk/

H2)   Victoria House Hotel, around 130EUR: http://www.victoriahouse-hotel.co.uk/

H3)   Westgate Hotel, around 75EUR: http://www.infotel.co.uk/15880.htm

I think that the best quality/prize relationship is the one of the YHA Hostel, four minutes walk from the office (I personally think that the quality is higher than the Westgate Hotel, I have stayed in both):

H4)   YHA Hostel,from 30EUR: www.yha.org.uk/find-accommodation/heart-of-england/hostels/Oxford/

Flight: Oxford has an airport, but only for business trips. London airports are one good option as they are more or less well connected to the city:
