NERC Discipline Hopping – Interdisciplinary Research Seminars

Three interdisciplinary workshops were held in 2022 on 9th and 23rd February, and 9th March, and one research sandpit, held on 30th March. They involved participants from academic institutions, government, and non-government fields from the UK and Argentina.

The workshops involved UoR academic staff from the following schools/departments: Archaeology, Geography and Environmental Science; Meteorology; Languages and Cultures; Built Environment; Real Estate and Planning; Agriculture, Policy and Development; Food and Nutritional Sciences.

Each workshop focussed on different steps toward developing interdisciplinary research, while the sandpit was used to capitalise on the learnings achieved during the three workshops to develop seed ideas for future interdisciplinary research grant bids.
