That the Parliament welcomes the announcement that the University of Glasgow will lead three new collaborative Scottish research alliances (ARCs) supported by the Scottish Funding Council; understands that a total of four ARCs have been funded, with the University leading three challenges linked to brain health, quantum technology and for the creation of a Scottish Alliance For Food, a collaborative initiative bringing together perspectives from social, natural, and applied sciences, arts and humanities, to address critical emerging research questions related to food security and equity; further understands that universities across Scotland will contribute to each of these alliances, working together across the higher education sector and with partners including the NHS and the Alzheimer Scotland Centre for Policy and Practice; congratulates the University of Glasgow and all partners of these new alliances, and wishes them well as they continue to develop ground-breaking new approaches to research.
