Hi there,

My job title is Research Marketing and Content Coordinator but essentially
what I do is meet academics from academics across the University and turn
there research into features, videos, visual summaries and other assets. We
send these out to the people who've funded their work but also to potential
other funders and subject interested parties e.g. charities, NGOs,
companies. We've had a range of results depending on the topic of research
but it's largely really positive. Happy to discuss more if you want to drop
me an email: [log in to unmask]

Thanks,

Alicia Shephard
