Abstracts are not currently available in GtR for all funded research. This is normally because the abstract was not required at the time of proposal submission, but may be because it included sensitive information such as personal details.

The aim of the proposed critical review is to provide a general update on the Staricoff (2004) and Staricoff and Clift (2012) reviews on the medical literature on the arts and health with a specific focus on the hitherto underexplored area of health care professionals' attitudes to the use of cultural activities in clinical and therapeutic settings. Staricoff's seminal review (2004) identified a number of benefits to using arts in health care settings; this review was recently updated by Staricoff and Clift (2012) and both reviews found evidence that arts and particularly music produced psychological and physiological outcomes in hospital environments, in the clinical areas of maternity, neonatal and intensive care, children, cardiovascular conditions, surgery and pain management, lung disease and oncology. There have also been reviews of the use of the arts in dementia care (Sherratt et al 2004) and the field of mental health (Daykin et al 2008). The Staricoff review (2004) considered the outcomes on staff of arts interventions and found studies concerning job satisfaction, and the use of the arts in medical and nursing training to improve communication, empathy and understanding of patients' needs. The therapeutic effects of the arts in health care are well documented overall but there remains a gap in our understanding as to whether the introduction of cultural activities into healthcare has an impact on the interactions between staff and the patient, or on the recruitment and retention of staff. The gap in critical reviews of the literature around the attitudes of health or social care professionals to the use of the cultural activities in clinical or therapeutic settings is important to address because establishing successful projects in health care environments is reliant on the co-operation of the staff working in these settings. Therefore the purpose of the proposed critical review is not only to update the Staricoff (2004) and Staricoff and Clift (2012) reviews but more specifically to explore health care professionals' attitudes to the use of cultural activities in clinical and therapeutic settings. The review will investigate three main areas: the perceptions of care givers on the use of the arts in enhancing the health and well-being in clinical and therapeutic settings, the impact of using the arts not only on the patient/service user but also on the healthcare professionals themselves, and whether engaging with arts activities in the workplace may have the potential to improve self-esteem and so reduce staff turnover. The review will focus on studies published from 2004 to the present, although it may also include a selection of papers from outside this period which are relevant and significant to one of the stated areas of interest. Based on the keywords outlined in the full proposal key electronic databases and internet sites will be searched, to identify published empirical research and 'grey literature' including Medline for healthcare in general, medicine and mental health, CINAHL (Cumulative Index to Nursing and Allied Health Literature) and BNI (British Nursing Index) for nursing issues and the Cochrane Library for reviews on healthcare.

The 4th Industrial Revolution/Industry 4.0 has enabled reduction of production costs, improved consistency of product quality and enabled mass customisation by merging the physical and digital worlds. The transition is still ongoing - Industry 4.0 is a general-purpose technology, adding value across all industrial sectors. However, the perception of Industry 4.0 at a human level has not all been positive. It has been plagued by fear of job cuts and in some sectors completely replacing the human workforce. Automation projects have often failed due to omitting the critical skilled human elements in business success with unintended consequences including reduced customer satisfaction, poorer product quality and lower process efficiency. Automation alone clearly cannot be a source of sustained competitive advantage. I5.0 will address the balance between humans and technology, focussing on the collaborative relationship between skilled workers and automation. The intent is reinstating skilled craftsmanship at the centre of production processes where people add unique value and competitive advantage, augmented by intelligent, data-driven technology emerging from Industry 4.0. In the Up-Skill project, we will address the implications of Industry 5.0, in particular the relationship between automation, skilled work and organisational systems. Our research will establish how the relationship between automation and human input plays out in a range of industrial settings, creating comparative case studies to capture effective implementation strategies. We will address under-explored strategic spaces in production - where automation adds value to skilled and artisanal work, and where further automation risks undermining product value. This research will identify the shifting organisational characteristics that are needed to ensure technology advancements are implemented within companies while ensuring sustainable, added value for man, machine, and organisation.

Children who are above healthy weight are more likely to be ill and to miss time off school. Being overweight in childhood can also sow the seeds for health problems in later life such as heart disease and diabetes. Most overweight children become overweight adults. One solution is to try to prevent children becoming overweight by intervening very early in life. Researchers have looked at some of the factors which suggest that a baby may be at greater risk of becoming overweight compared to other babies without these risk factors. We have developed a questionnaire which asks parents about these risk factors such as whether their baby was heavy at birth and how quickly their baby is gaining weight. As with all such questionnaires there is a risk that some babies might be identified as at greater risk of becoming overweight children when they are not. This research project will design a computer-based interactive educational programme to enable health visitors to present this questionnaire to parents, calculate a baby's risk and feed that risk back to parents. Where necessary, health visitors will also present some possible solutions, such as additional help around feeding. However, the question remains as to whether parents would like to know about their baby's risk of overweight and what they could do to keep their child healthy. We also need to know how health visitors feel about giving this sort of information to parents so the project will ask both health visitors and parents for their views. Parents will also be asked if they would be willing to enter a future study that calculates their baby's overweight risk score and, if this is high, offers additional health visiting support with diet, feeding and physical activity.
