Collaborating for Researcher Development
The UK Research Staff Association and Vitae are carrying out research to discover what makes a research staff association tick, and to identify the added value that they produce for researchers and institutions. In our session (A3, Book now!) we will take a brief look at emerging trends in this research. We will also discuss how researchers and researcher development professionals can collaborate by exploring shared goals and developing joint projects.
