Only one participant whose improvement was graded as "no change" wanted to participate in the study.
In order to obtain a better understanding of experiences of those who had not made large improvements, two more participants whose improvements were graded as "minimally improved" were interviewed.
The issue of engineering potential for altering photosynthetic performance addresses a fundamental set of pathways, whose improvements are of great importance, although complexity and barriers to change have shown to be still considerable.
Sadly, many university departments whose improvements are not enough to place them in the upper echelon will find the RAE an exercise in frustration.
However, on account of this misrepresentation two more participants whose improvements were graded as minimally change were interviewed.
Recent research in Building Integrated Photovoltaics (BIPV) is reviewed with the emphases on a range of key systems whose improvement would be likely to lead to improved solar energy conversion efficiency and/or economic viability.
"I can't think of an example in human history of a bad technology having been replaced by another product whose only improvement was a social good," Daniel Kammen told me when we met recently in his office at the University of California at Berkeley, where he founded the Energy and Resources Group at the Goldman School of Public Policy.
