Past IAS Major Projects
Since 2018/19, the IAS has supported 19 Major Projects, and many more research development projects
These include, among others and most recently, 'Opportunities in Pollution', which explored the biological, physical and social impacts of pollution on micro- organisms, plants, animals and human stakeholders and the interdependent mechanisms of evolution and adaptation to it, particularly in the North East.
