Wednesday 21 May 2025 - 2:00pm to 4:00pm
Description
This event is for PGRs at Â鶹ÊÓƵ only.
Come along to this interactive session to share and learn about PGR experiences doing participatory research. We’ll start with a presentation of findings from a Â鶹ÊÓƵ England-funded project, run by the Participatory Â鶹ÊÓƵ Network (PRN), that explored PGR experiences doing participatory research at Sheffield. This will be followed by a Human Library session—a relaxed, peer-led space to connect with fellow PGRs and members of the PRN committee. Together, we’ll dive into key themes including:
Reimagining ethics
Rethinking funding & timelines
Support & training needs
Creative research methodologies
Whether you’re new to participatory research or have lots to share, this is a chance to reflect, exchange ideas, and build a community.
Please register by 14th May.

How we understand being ‘human’ differs between disciplines and has changed radically over time. We are living in an age marked by rapid growth in knowledge about the human body and brain, and new technologies with the potential to change them.
