This year's annual HIVE event is centred around the theme of 'working with the Academy' - learn more about what the Academy does, how this impacts you, and how you can get involved as a HIVE member. You will also hear about our new 10-year strategy.
A key component of our new strategy is to champion transdisciplinary research across the NHS, social care and public health; academia; charities and industry. So, we are organising an exciting panel, bringing together individuals from the different sectors to speak about their experience of cross-sector working, with a chance for you to pose questions to the panel. Voices of the HIVE community will be represented on the panel.
The official presentations and panel discussions will take place from 13.30-15.30. The event will then end with optional 30 minutes informal breakout rooms (from 15.30-16.00) to give you a chance to connect further with Academy staff and your fellow HIVE members.
