The University of Sussex was an early signatory to the San Francisco Declaration on Research Assessment and recently affirmed our commitment to this, ensuring that the University moves away from traditional ways of ranking research to a fairer, more inclusive system. This will have an impact on research advancement and career development for researchers at all stages.

Dr Lizzie Gadd, founder of the Bibliomagician blog, discusses responsible metrics, in general, and recent policy changes by UK funders and what that means for the sector. Professor Robin Banerjee will also talk about the specific work being carried out by Sussex and how are practically implementing our DORA action plan.

Supported by SAGE Publications and hosted by the University of Sussex Library, these events are open to everyone engaged in, supporting or curious about the research process.
