Researcher Realities invites conversations among and across the research community how we do what we do, what contexts and circumstances inform our decisions, what we do when things go wrong, how we navigate challenges, how we define success. They are aimed to foster an open, transparent, and inclusive research culture by promoting authenticity, and giving reassurances, opportunities for best-practice sharing and inspiration.
This is a dedicated online space where we post thematic blogs that relate to researcher realities. If you would like to propose a series, please get in touch with Anna Pilz (anna.pilz@ed.ac.uk).
