The project is receiving funding from the England European Regional Development Fund as part of the European Structural and Investment Funds Growth Programme 2014-2020. The Ministry of Housing Communities and Local Government (and in London the intermediate body Greater London Authority) is the Managing Authority for European Regional Development Fund. The TEM will support applied research and development in a wide range of applications and materials types, from metallic alloys, glasses and ceramics, polymer composites and hybrid Bio-compatible materials (e.g. hydro-gels). The instrument has been specified to be as flexible as possible so that many different users will be able to analyse their materials. This has included ways of mitigating electron beam damage to sensitive samples to allow "soft" materials to be studied.
