Demonstrating impact through your research

Demonstrating impact through your research

11.15am -1.45pm, Wednesday, 15th May 2019

Taylor Room (G25) Ground Floor, John Adams Hall, 15-23 Endsleigh Street, London, WC1H 0DP

It’s not always easy for academics and researchers to see the impact of their work. Traditional markers of influence, such as citations, are not sufficient to tell the story of impact. This interactive session will be an opportunity for Early Career Researchers to discuss with a panel of experienced publishers from Emerald Publishing how we can work together to challenge simplistic and outdated approaches to impact, shifting beyond metrics and celebrating impact of all shapes and sizes. We’re keen to discuss the barriers that ECRs face when trying to demonstrate the impact of their research. With that in mind, please could attendees consider a current research project that they are working on for discussion with the wider group. Lunch will be provided.

• This is a small group session; only 20 places are available

• Please note, this is a repeat of our session from the 23 November 2018: ‘Demonstrating Impact through your research’, so may not be suitable for those that attended the original session
