The Chancellor George Osborne has found \u00a3100m of new money for science in his Budget. <\/p>\n

The bulk of the funds (\u00a380m), which come from the bank levy, will be invested in new research centres at Daresbury, Norwich and Cambridge, he said.<\/p>\n

The smaller proportion (\u00a320m) would go to projects at Harwell. <\/p>\n

These include investments in new space technologies, and in three new instruments at the Isis neutron source.<\/p>\n

Isis is a giant machine that can probe the structure of matter. Scientists exploit its insights to advance a host of new technologies from drug design to improved mobile phones.<\/p>\n

Also included in the budget was a promise to address regulatory issues that are deemed to impede science-based industries from maximising their performance.<\/p>\n

In the life sciences, Mr Osborne announced a new health research regulatory agency that would aim to simply the business of running clinical trials.<\/p>\n

In the space sector, he promised to reform the Outer Space Act, to reduce the costs of launching to, and operating in, orbit.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p>\n
