Research Support Services Conference
The Research Support Services Conference provides a space where our research support professional services colleagues from all parts of the University can come together to learn, share and network.
We are delighted to announce that the Research Support Services Conference 2023 will take place in-person, on 31 October in the John McIntyre Conference Centre (Pollock Halls).
The 2023 Conference will be structured around three themes:
Research Support Services across the University develop and adapt as the funding environment changes and the needs of researchers evolve. Sessions under this theme will share work from around the University to improve Research Support Services.
A solid base of technical knowledge underpins your ability to deliver and to grow professionally. Sessions under this theme will provide opportunities for you to learn something new and to explore different topics.
Research Support is an exciting and rewarding profession, key to enabling research that makes a difference to people, societies and the planet. Sessions under this theme will explore the career and professional opportunities available to you, including hearing first hand from peers as they share stories about their experiences.

Conference contributions are invited from University, College and School research support teams. If you have an idea for a session which would fit under any of this year's themes, we would love to hear from you!
