Research Advocacy

Research examines brain scan with interested students

Good ideas should speak for themselves. But in a world with many pressing challenges, and in a moment where credible information can be hard to find, it is more important than ever before that university research is available and used by decision makers in every sector. The Research Advocacy team runs public advocacy campaigns to promote the university’s research priorities and help our research translate more quickly into solutions for our community, nation, and world.

The Research Advocacy team connects the university’s research community with external partners, ensuring that our cutting-edge research has a real-world impact.

Learn more about the Zero Carbon Cluster, a research priority for the university, which is building innovative ways to provide the research and development needed to scale technologies in hard-to-decarbonise sectors.
