Our new research platform is hosting a staff networking event on Poverty and Deprivation on Wednesday, 12 June
The Healthier Futures Poverty and Deprivation theme, led by Dr Cristina Temenos and Dr Luke Munford, is bringing together knowledge and expertise from across our University and beyond to better understand and address how poverty can impact health and wellbeing.
This networking event – from 10am to 12.30pm on Wednesday, 12 June, Engineering A 3A.016 M&T – will focus on better understanding what research is happening in this area at the University, potential opportunities for interdisciplinary working and how building a network for this theme can best support your current and future research.
