Parliament for Researchers with the House of Lords

Join the first in a series of new online Parliament for Researchers training sessions, in collaboration with Members of the House of Lords.

About the event

In this session, we will be joined by Lord Ravensdale*, who will share insights on the value of academic research in Parliament, informed by his professional background in engineering.

During the session, you will find out about how research evidence is used in both the House of Commons and the House of Lords and how you can work with Parliament as a researcher.

This session is suitable for early career researchers, PhD students, researchers who are new to engaging with the UK Parliament as well as those who would benefit from a refresher. The session will cover useful information for researchers of all academic backgrounds, but may be of particular interest to those in physical science and engineering related disciplines.
