Advancing Open Research Workshop
26th February 2025
13:00-14:30
Oculus 0.01
Hosted by Warwick's Interdisciplinary Research Spotlights, this event will also feature the launch of the new Interdisciplinary Research Directory—a resource designed to support future collaborations by helping you easily find and connect with experts across a wide range of disciplines.
It also provides an opportunity to connect with colleagues from across the university who are interested in interdisciplinary collaboration.
We support an inclusive research culture at Warwick that involves researchers at all career stages, as well as PGRs, staff on teaching contracts, research technical professionals, and professional services colleagues.
This event is open to all those who are interested or involved in interdisciplinary research—whether you are conducting it or enabling it in any capacity.
If the workshop is oversubscribed, attendees will be selected to ensure a diverse representation across disciplines, faculties, career stages, and roles.
