Can AI compress the years long research time of a PhD into seconds? Research scientist Max Jaderberg explores how “AI analogs” simulate real-world lab work with staggering speed and scale, unlocking new insights on protein folding and drug discovery. Drawing on his experience working on Isomorphic Labs' and Google DeepMind's AlphaFold 3 — an AI model for predicting the structure of molecules — Jaderberg explains how this new technology frees up researchers' time and resources to better understand the real, messy world and tackle the next frontiers of science, medicine and more.

Barton Bitesize: Extensions of time (EOT) in construction contracts 13:18

10 hari yang lalu13:18

13:18

In this episode, Bill Barton of Barton Legal unpacks the critical concept of extensions of time (EOT) in construction contracts, with a particular focus on JCT contracts. He explains that every construction project hinges on three elements: time for completion, EOT provisions, and the consequences of delay (like liquidated damages). Key points from the discussion include: Programme & Delays : The essential role of a project programme in managing timelines, preventing delays, and assigning fault for EOT and liquidated damages (LADs). Time for Completion : Why this date is a contentious negotiation point due to potential contractor liabilities. What is EOT? A formal mechanism to adjust the completion date when delays occur that are not the contractor's fault, protecting them from liability. Circumstances for EOT : How modern contracts cover various delay events, including employer-initiated variations. "Time at Large" : The concept where the completion date becomes unenforceable for LADs if a delay event isn't covered by the contract, stemming from the 'prevention principle'. Types of Delay : Distinguishing between employer delays and neutral delays (e.g., weather, strikes, force majeure), and how contract drafting impacts EOT entitlement for the latter. Dynamic EOT Clauses : The evolving application of EOT clauses as knowledge and control over disruptions (like COVID-19) change. JCT Contracts : A detailed look at JCT's 'relevant events' and 'after the event' notification approach for EOT. NEC Contracts : How NEC uses 'compensation events' and emphasizes early warning and cooperation, with a forward-looking approach to anticipating delays. Bill concludes by stressing the importance of comprehensive contracts, robust programmes, and clear definitions to avoid poorly drafted clauses that can lead to oppressive consequences or 'time at large' impacting both parties. He highlights the contrast between JCT's strict adherence and NEC's collaborative focus. Bill invites listeners to contact Barton Legal for any questions.

Barton Bitesize: Mediation 15:12

15:12

In this podcast, Bill Barton of Barton Legal dives deep into mediation, a powerful form of alternative dispute resolution (ADR). He explains how this "without prejudice" meeting helps parties resolve disputes with the guidance of a neutral, independent mediator, keeping discussions private and off-record. Key points covered include: What is Mediation? A clear definition of this confidential process, designed to avoid the stress and expense of litigation. Benefits : How mediation offers a quicker, less costly path to resolution compared to lengthy court proceedings. When to Mediate : Bill's advice on initiating mediation as early as possible, ideally within the pre-action protocol. The Process : Appointment: Agreeing on and appointing a mediator. Venue: Choosing a neutral location. Agreement: Signing the mediation agreement, which carries potential cost consequences for non-compliance. Preparation is Key : Position Statement: Drafting a brief overview of each party's arguments. Mediation Bundle: Compiling essential documents. Pre-Mediation Meetings: Internal and mediator-led discussions to prepare. Outcomes & Confidentiality : Mediation doesn't guarantee settlement, but it offers valuable insights and fulfils court expectations for attempting resolution. Crucially, all discussions are confidential and cannot be used in court. Costs : Typically, parties bear their own costs and split the mediator's fees. The Mediation Day : From the initial joint session to private negotiations facilitated by the mediator, and the vital step of signing a detailed, enforceable settlement agreement if a resolution is reached. Bill emphasises the importance of being firm yet flexible during negotiations and invites listeners to contact Barton Legal for any questions.

The Value of Re-qualification : Both emphasise how their legal qualifications, combined with deep industry experience, bring a unique 'real-life' perspective to the legal field.

In this solo episode, Bill breaks down the essential concept of collateral warranties in construction and engineering law. Bill explains that collateral warranties serve as contracts associated with primary agreements, enabling third parties with project interests to enforce terms despite the "doctrine of privity" in English law that typically limits contractual rights to the original parties. While the Contracts Rights of Third Parties Act 1999 offers an alternative approach, Bill highlights why collateral warranties remain the industry preference: Greater flexibility and customisation Enhanced security through "stepping rights" during insolvency Eligibility for adjudication under the Construction Act Industry familiarity and established precedent Though third-party rights provide a streamlined method for assigning benefits, Bill concludes that collateral warranties continue to offer superior protection and adaptability for parties in construction projects.
