Welcome to the latest news from the N8 Research Partnership.
This is a farewell newsletter for me, as I’ll be moving on to pastures new in November to take up a new role as Director of Research, Partnerships and Innovation at the University of Liverpool.
Over the last five years, I have felt privileged to work alongside my colleagues at the N8 universities; it has been a fantastic role to undertake, and a job that I’ve really loved. If you’re interested in applying for the N8 Director’s post, act soon, as we are currently hiring!
The N8 is about creating a collaborative spirit between academics and research users, from initiatives such as Regener8 (which is hosting its annual conference next week), to the ground-breaking Industry Innovation Forum, which bring partners together, often from very different industries and research areas, to drive new, step-changing innovations. The next event, which focuses on Food Security, promises to be very exciting indeed – we’ll keep you updated on its outcomes.
Meanwhile, the new Co-production study, which we highlight here, is yet another example of the N8’s diverse interests, and intention to push the boundaries of research.
I wish the N8 Research Partnership, and everyone who has worked with it, the very best for the future, and look forward to seeing it go from strength to strength.
I hope you enjoy reading our latest news. As ever, please do get in touch if you have any feedback.
Sarah Jackson,
Director, N8 Research Partnership
