Series Two of Speaking of Research is Here

We’re excited to announce the launch of Series Two of Speaking of Research, the podcast from the ESRC South Coast Doctoral Training Partnership (SCDTP) that highlights the ideas, voices, and impact of our doctoral researchers.

Following the great response to our first series, we return with a new collection of conversations that explore how research across our partner institutions is responding to today’s most urgent global challenges. From international relations and environmental sustainability to health, inclusion, and digital change, each episode offers a glimpse into the thinking and purpose behind doctoral research that aims to make a difference.

Hosted by Catherine McDonald from Research Podcasts, Series Two continues to give listeners a chance to hear directly from researchers about their projects, motivations, and the real-world issues they are addressing through their work.

🎙️ New episodes will be released on Tuesdays between 18 November 2025 to 10 February 2026.

Whether you’re a fellow researcher, policymaker, practitioner, or simply curious about the research shaping our world, we invite you to tune in, subscribe, and share on your favourite platform.
