CHEMICAL REGULATION

Endocrine Disruption

Endocrine disruptors (EDs) are compounds which can alter the normal functioning of the endocrine system and cause developmental and reproductive effects in humans and animals. As both the exposed individual and its offspring. can be affected by endocrine disruption there are concerns about the longer-term impacts of endocrine disrupting chemicals for populations and ecosystems.

Meet the scientists...

Chris Sinclair

Chris ensures delivery of the regulatory environmental risk assessment processes (quantifying risk for pesticides, veterinary medicines and feed additives) of environmental fate and behaviour of chemicals (e.g. movement of chemicals through soils to surface and ground waters) for our customers. He also leads on the ecotoxicology of chemicals (quantifying the impact chemicals have on terrestrial and aquatic organisms from earthworms and plants to fish and crustaceans).

Insect Bioconversion

In the EU insect protein is currently permitted for use in pet food and aquaculture, and the species of insect that can be used and the organic substrates that they can be reared on are defined. European pet food companies are utilising insect meal, but not from UK insect producers.

Insect bioconversion is the process which involves feeding insect larvae with organic residue - for example this could be materials from vegetal origin from food processing or agricultural production. When the grubs have been fattened up and reached a "critical mass", they can be harvested to create multiple, valuable end products.One product being produced is protein for inclusion in animal feed. Traditionally, protein-rich animal feed is made from soy and also fish meal; both raw materials that place a considerable strain on the environment.

Transforming the Yorkshire Bioeconomy

The National Agri-Food Innovation Campus (NAFIC) in York is a major contributor to Yorkshire's bioeconomy by offering young people the opportunity to obtain qualifications and gain hands-on experience in the real world, whilst getting paid to do their job. Two years ago NAFIC had two apprentices which has now increased to more than 100, with more starting later in the year.

Fera and Convance, both based at NAFIC, have come together in partnership to create a formal training entity: the National Science Training Centre (NSTC) for the next generation of talent.

The EPQ (Extended Project Qualification) provides the opportunity to demonstrate creativity through engagement with a diverse range of topics.

Projects could include: the writing of an extended essay on the dangers of advertising; conducting a scientific investigation on boiling an egg; building a robot; making a film; producing a newspaper; writing a screenplay; designing a computer programme; making a video game... the choices are endless!

The EPQ is an independent research project providing you with the opportunity to demonstrate your ability to think critically, creatively and in depth about a topic. Designed to extend learning beyond the curriculum, it allows you to explore new and diverse directions.

Here at the University of Westminster we have developed a range of resources and programmes for students and teachers to support this exciting opportunity.

EPQ workshops for students

A set of workshops delivered either at our Harrow Campus or on site in your school, these workshops are designed to help students at every stage of the creation process from topic and idea generation through to final writing and rewriting the extended essay.

Workshops are practical and last two hours each session. A fee is charged for this workshop. For more information and to book a student workshop, please contact Eleanor Roseblade.

Staff Development Opportunities

An afternoon workshop specifically designed for librarians and teachers new to teaching the EPQ. This workshop presents a set of resources and a ten-week plan for 20 hours of deliverable material which will take a group of students from an introduction of the EPQ, through to final delivery. A fee is charged for this workshop.

For more information and to book a staff workshop, please contact Eleanor Roseblade.

EPQ Media Studies Resources

Created by senior academics from our School of Media and Communications these resources are designed to help promote ideas and activities for Research Methods, and Media Studies related work.

Each card contains key information on its topic, provides suggestions for further open access readings and group work to explore contemporary themes in media communication. These resources also offer a way into other subjects, including Sociology, History, Geography and English. Our range of research focused resources can be used to guide students in any discipline.
download all epq Media Studies cards (9.5MB)
Media and Identity

In a world where identity and the media are ever more closely linked, the cards in this series seek to explore how our own identity is constructed and represented through the media we consume, and what the wider implications of this are.

These cards provoke questions around what makes us human, what makes us who we are and how are we represented in the media.

Media and Society

Media and Society are inextricably linked in our modern world of mass communication and mass consumption. These cards draw out and challenge some of the key debates surrounding the social, political and economic significance of the media and how these are changing in the 21st Century.

Media Production

How do you listen to music? Is there a trick to radio production? What is the link between production, distribution and exhibition? The media production cards series looks at aspects of production across media platforms.

Supporting the creation of production with theory and conceptual thinking, these cards show how to develop an academic approach to a practical discipline.

Researching Media and Communications

This series of research methods cards introduces the main research traditions in media and communication studies and explores a range of methods of data collection and analysis employed in research.

A range of research methods are demonstrated here with each card examining a different stage of the research and writing process.
