Our staff and postgraduate researchers are doing phenomenal work to share their insights. Get to know us in these short interviews, which tell the story of the person and their work.
INAUGURAL LECTURES
When a scholar is given the title of professor, it is customary to hold an inaugural lecture, which provides an opportunity for the recipient to reflect on their journey to achieving their title. At salford, we regularly host and share these events for wider public engagement. take a look at some of them below.
Research IMPACT series
As part of our REF2021 results announcements, we are hosting a series of conversations with our impact case study leads. These consist of short stories about the impact from research that we have been developing, along with an opportunity to get to know the researcher. Enjoy!
