Student Networks
The Midlands Graduate School supports students to come together in thematic networks. Details of existing networks are provided on this page.
If you are interested in developing a Student Network, contact us on esrcdtp@warwick.ac.uk
Sensitive Research Network
https://www.srnmidlands.com/home
-
It will be a space for knowledge exchange across different disciplines and research interests
-
Build confidence in researching within emotionally demanding topics through shared experiences and open dialogues with peers
-
Opportunity to involve yourself in reflexive practice
Mental Health Research Network
- To increase communication and collaboration between students who are working with topics related to mental health but might be in different pathways and disciplines.
- To make the planning process easier for events, seminars, conferences, workshops etc. (Especially in the context of the Doctoral Event Grant which requires members from different universities to host an event.)
- To share and discuss our work with each other in order to gain initial feedback and analyse our work from a multi-disciplinary lens.
- To expand the conceptualization of mental health out of individualistic/reductionist notions towards more holistic ideas.
- To inform the members of the network about specific events, groups, and studies happening inside specific universities but which are usually not widely publicized out of their universities. (For instance, there was a small workshop about the philosophy of mental health hosted by the department of philosophy in the University of Nottingham.)
- To share niche opportunities related to mental health that might not be publicized in non-specialist channels and hence might not be visible to students working in non-Psychology disciplines and vice versa.
