About this event

This in-person event is for all UCL staff and postgraduate research students who want to learn more about how we're developing a fair, collaborative and inclusive research culture, where both our research and research community can thrive. Everyone at UCL who works in or supports research, or is a doctoral researcher, is invited to share ideas and perspectives on research culture. 

At this event, you will:

  • Listen to case studies of research culture successes and best practice, led by colleagues and peers from across UCL.
  • Network and get to know your colleagues in the research community.
  • Find out how you can get involved with research culture at UCL.

Photography may take place at this event. Photos may be used on our website for promotional purposes. If you do not wish to be filmed or photographed, please let a member of staff know on arrival.
