      Hi 02dawilliams,

      Its difficult to tell really but I know that there have been at least 100 publications (research papers) which have been based on data which was collected making use of the software that I (and the rest of my team) have written. So hopefully something in there will make a real difference one day. The problem with science is that it can sometimes take a long time to get from experiments to real word impact.

      Great question, thanks for asking.

      Mark
