HEFCE have published a report on a research impact pilot that was conducted in preparation for the Research Excellence Framework planned for completion in 2014. Excludes academic impacts. Interesting methodology, such as one case study per ten staff, broader impact statements, the inclusion of public engagement and a heavy emphasis on high-level peer review in evaluating impact. In addition to the broader science base comparisons, will be interesting to see how the thinking on public engagement develops - and what constitutes excellence in impact in this area.
