  1. Impacts T.I. Meyer | Head, Strategic Planning & Communication | TRIUMF

  2. Pressure • Many labs are increasingly asked to justify their existence based on “impacts” • Ironically, these impacts are exactly those that we used to promise • Surprisingly, the govm’ts and public have started to believe us • So how do we measure/report/prove impacts?

  3. TRIUMF Five-Year Plan 2015-2020

  4. Socio-economic impacts: HAL

  5. Socio-Economic Impacts: HAL

  6. Samples… • BC Institute of Technology

  7. Samples… • Perimeter Institute of Theoretical Physics • “…A recent study conducted by Thomson Reuters indicates that Perimeter is doing very high-quality, high-impact research and making a major contribution to increasing Canada’s standing in the global scientific community.” • “…The data indicate that the citation impact of Perimeter’s published research is well above the Canadian average and has increased substantially in recent years. The graph below indicates that since Perimeter’s inception, Canada’s physics citation impact has risen dramatically relative to other countries, with Perimeter making a significant and growing contribution. In 2010, among G8 countries, Canada ranked first in physics citation impact; without Perimeter, Canada would have ranked fourth. “

  11. Summary • One way or the other, we are all starting to be measured and compared • We should keep each other informed, and as possible, clued in • Is this just-for-information or is there more?
