Usher staff on REF panels
Appointments have now been made to the expert panels that will assess submissions to the Research Excellence Framework (REF) 2021.
We are delighted that three members of the Usher Institute will serve on Panels of the Research Excellence Framework (REF) 2021 assessment.
Over 400 new members, assessors and specialist advisers have been appointed to the REF sub-panels, following a nomination process earlier this year. Details of the assessment-phase panel membership has been published on the REF website.
The new panellists include leading researchers from across a range of universities in the UK and beyond, and experts in the use and benefits of research who will play a key role in assessing the wider impact of research.
The 34 expert sub-panels will carry out the detailed assessment of submissions between May 2021 and February 2022, working under the guidance of four main panels.
