A new global home for research
Where researchers, ideas and opportunities come together.
Research Centre is being built to connect researchers, support collaboration, simplify publishing and provide the practical tools academics and students need throughout the research lifecycle.
Shared interests across prison education, lived experience and qualitative research.
Built around the research lifecycle
More than a profile. More than a repository.
Research Centre will bring professional identity, intelligent networking, collaboration tools, publication support, surveys, analytics and academic opportunities into one coherent platform.
Its purpose is simple: reduce the friction surrounding research so people can spend more time creating, testing and sharing valuable knowledge.
Intelligent research connections
Structured profiles, disciplines and specialist tags will enable relevant researchers to discover one another across institutions, countries and subject boundaries.
Research tools
Purpose-built surveys, analysis support, literature organisation and workflow tools for researchers and dissertation students.
Publication visibility
New papers, projects and opportunities can be promoted to the audiences most likely to engage with them.
Meaningful invitations
Invite researchers to collaborate, peer review, guest lecture, join a round table, contribute to an edited collection or support a journal.
One trusted research community
Academics, students, independent researchers, institutions, publishers and practitioners — connected around shared interests and active work.
Designed for genuine participation
Find the people behind the research.
Explore specialist areas, identify active researchers and create opportunities for international, interdisciplinary collaboration.
