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: 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 2 - our experts showcase examples of where research data has been used to guide policymaking, dissect the challenges that researchers face in mobilising their research, and explain how UK Parliament assesses research to decide what evidence to use.
Please also dig deeper into the work of CLOSER with our Impact team's blog about how the organisation provides specialist support for researchers: Grow your policy impact through CLOSER’s Policy Surgeries.
