Explore how working with the media can help to raise the profile of your research and lead to impact in our upcoming workshop – Engaging with the Media for Impact.
This in-person workshop will take place on Talbot Campus from 2pm – 3.30pm on Wednesday 26 April.
Engaging with the media can be a great way to raise your profile and share your research with different audiences, which can increase the reach and potential impact of your work.
