Review showcases Sussex research. The University's Research Review for 2013 - Excellence and Impact - has been published, showcasing some of Sussex's latest research findings and applications. The research activity covered this year includes neuroscience, energy policy, DNA replication and genetic stability, digital media and internet policy, consciousness and adoption research and practice. Three of these areas - energy policy , DNA replication and adoption - are also featured in short online videos. The Vice-Chancellor, Professor Michael Farthing, says: "From the pioneering work on consciousness science being conducted in the Sackler Centre, to the work on reducing energy emissions by the Sussex Energy Group, to the latest work on law and the internet and social media, our characteristic interdisciplinary approach tackling real-world issues continues to be a mainstay of our work. "Acknowledging and celebrating our research work is an important part of what we do as an academic community. I want to make sure that we are sharing what we are doing across the University and with the wider world." The Research Review was launched at the Royal Society in London on Thursday (13 June) as guests from government, research councils, the public sector and business mixed with leading Sussex researchers.
