Listen to our new podcast with CLOSER, as we sit down with our expert panel to explore how research data can influence Government policies to improve people's lives.
Our panelists include: Dr Steve McEachern, Director of the UK Data Service, Rob Davies, Head of Policy and Dialogue at CLOSER, Dr Emily Marchant, Lecturer at Swansea University and Natasha Mutebi, Social Sciences Lead at the Parliamentary Office of Science and Technology.
Episode 1 - we discuss how to raise awareness of research data among policymakers so it can be used to guide better decisions, with our panel sharing their insights into how researchers can connect with policymakers and effectively communicate their findings for policy audiences.
