If you’re not on social media, you are not translating your research – it is as simple as that. But, being on social media doesn’t mean you are translating your research. There are so many scenarios and alternatives within each option it can be paralysing to even make a start! In this FREE webinar we’ll look at the various social media options available to researchers and why you might choose each. We’ll also look at the content suited to each…

Academic research is still, fundamentally, about publishing good research and getting grants to fund good research. However, “publishing” is now a very broad term. And “grants” can come from almost anywhere. In this FREE webinar, we’ll take a look at how research is changing and how that means you, the academic researcher, might need to change too.

How can you become a go to person in your area of expertise? In this FREE webinar, we’ll take a look at…

Industry partners are an essential part of academic research in the 21st century. If the moniker was “publish or perish” it is now “partner AND publish or perish”. But, where do you find these partners? Who are they? What if your research seems to not lend itself to industry partners? In this FREE webinar I’ll show you how any academic researcher can find an industry partner. I’ll also work with those in attendance on their strategy for finding industry partners.…

What parts are important to get right at the start, and what can be figured out as you go? In this webinar, we’ll take a look at industry partnerships from three perspectives – the researcher, the partner and their respective legal teams.…

Even though the Nobel Prizes cannot be awarded to teams; even though students cannot be supervised by researchers from multiple universities; even though systems prevent data sharing outside organisations; there’s an expectation that collaboration – across universities – happens. So, how do you go about these collaborations when so much of the system and process makes collaborations difficult? In this webinar, I’ll present my experiences of making these collaborations work. The obstacles I’ve faced (and seen others face) and how…
