As you know here at Karlsruhe we have made a start on a benchmarking study on nanofabrication facilities (also with you). We are mainly interested in the operational model of the infrastructure (free access via peer review vs paid access), the output both in terms of the classical performance indicators (publications etc.) as well as the relation between technologies, application areas , and the in-house research of the host infrastructures. We see this as a way of measuring the impact in terms of innovative relevance – a hot topic here in Europe.</span><span lang=EN-US style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:#1F497D'><o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-US style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:#1F497D'>This is the link to our home nfrastructure Karlsruhe Nano Micro Facility (KNMF) </span><u><span lang=EN-US style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:blue'><a href="http://www.knmf.kit.edu/">http://www.knmf.kit.edu/</a></span></u><u><span lang=EN-US style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:#1F497D'> </span></u><span lang=EN-US style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:#1F497D'> , and the European Network I coordinated – at the moment we are preparing a proposal for a follow on, <a href="http://www.euminafab.eu/">www.euminafab.eu</a> .</span><span lang=EN-US style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:#1F497D'><o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-US style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:#1F497D'><o:p> </o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-US style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:#1F497D'>A global approach to the benchmarking would be really good, I would be very interested to discuss further with you and Thomas,<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-US style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:#1F497D'><o:p> </o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-US style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:#1F497D'>Best regards,<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-US style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:#1F497D'>Susan<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-US style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:#1F497D'><o:p> </o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-US style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:#1F497D'><o:p> </o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><b><span lang=EN-US style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:#1F497D'>Karlsruhe Institute of Technology (KIT)<br></span></b><span lang=EN-US style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:#1F497D'>Helmholtz Programme Science and Technology of Nanosystems (STN)<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-US style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:#1F497D'>Karlsruhe Nano Micro Facility (KNMF)<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:#1F497D'>Dr. Susan Anson <i><br><br></i>Hermann-von-Helmholtz-Platz 1<br>76344 Eggenstein-Leopoldshafen, Germany<br>Phone: +49 (0) 721 608 2 8103<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-US style='font-size:9.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:#1F497D'>Mobile +49 (0) 175 5735 149</span><span lang=EN-US style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:#1F497D'><br>Fax: +49 (0) 721 608 2 5579<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-US style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:#1F497D'>Email: <a href="mailto:susan.anson@kit.edu">susan.anson@kit.edu</a><o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-US style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:#1F497D'><a href="http://www.stn.kit.edu/">http://www.stn.kit.edu/</a> <o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-US style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:#1F497D'><a href="http://www.knmf.kit.edu/">http://www.knmf.kit.edu/</a> <o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-US style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:#1F497D'><a href="http://www.euminafab.eu/">www.euminafab.eu</a> (<i>FP7-226460</i>) EUMINAfab - your gateway to multimaterial micro nano fabrication<br><br><b>KIT </b>– University of the State of Baden-Württemberg and National Large-scale Research Center of the Helmholtz Association<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-US style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:#1F497D'><o:p> </o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-US style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:#1F497D'><o:p> </o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-US style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:#1F497D'><o:p> </o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><b><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Tahoma","sans-serif"'>Von:</span></b><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Tahoma","sans-serif"'> rosie.hicks@gmail.com [mailto:rosie.hicks@gmail.com] <b>Im Auftrag von </b>rosie hicks<br><b>Gesendet:</b> Dienstag, 29.
