Asking good research questions in a wicked world

Prof Kathryn Monk


Our Biosciences Seminar Series continues with a talk by Prof Kathryn Monk, Honorary Professor at the Department of Biosciences at Swansea University (UK) and Principal Advisor for Science at Natural Resources Wales (UK).



Abstract
How do we think about and develop our work in government and academia? Are we changing the way we think and work? In all walks of life, including research, policy, and tackling the grand challenges facing society, we increasingly recognise complexity, synergies, and the need for innovative approaches. We've moved from multi- to intra- to trans-disciplinary working in research, management, design etc. Between research and policy, how do we enable the impact of our research to be realised, let alone be confident that we have asked the right question in the first place?




Hope to see many of you - everyone most welcome to attend!
