What began as a series of conversations between a small group of researchers has developed into a wider discussion about how universities understand and respond to the emotional demands of research.

I knew next to nothing about the DWP’s enormous remit or how this might translate into a job, but I was drawn to its stated vision of improving people’s day-to-day lives through work and at work, making this department a natural fit for my research.
