    Christmas party in the Kilburn building on Friday 10th December 2021.

    Please put this date into your diary. We are also wanting to mark the event for those staff who left us last year and would like to formally say goodbye to those people at 3pm, and then start the Christmas party from 4pm.

    CS Ops will be setting up an Eventbrite link for you to register your place and this will be emailed to you in due course. Please note in line with covid restrictions in terms of room occupancy, we do need to confirm numbers in order that the event can go ahead in a safe manner.

    Five minute survey on research practices

    The University of Manchester is part of a UKRN study to investigate awareness of open research amongst all academic staff, researchers and doctoral researchers at the institution. Whether or not you know about or practice open research, we’d like to hear from you.

    The results will help us to understand how we can better support staff in open research.

    The survey is available here: https://brunellifesc.eu.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_3eLDWrN8iH2nB42

    The deadline for completion is Friday 26th November 2021.
