BRIAN is being upgraded and will be unavailable for use on Tuesday 28th and Wednesday 29th January.
The main improvements from this upgrade include:
- New Assessment module for REF2021 functionality
- More User Friendly Navigation
The new and improved features will make BRIAN easier and simplier to use for everyone, whilst also providing a valuable tool to academics helping them record the impact of their research.
We will communicate on the blog as soon as BRIAN is up and running again.
