Why expose research?… aside from the obvious global impact – making the world a better place…
Things that matter;
Being cited Being on TV Being in the press Being talked about Getting the funding!
Why?
Increase citations (Imminence of REF)
More (better!) students / researchers
Greater impact
Opportunities tocollaborate
We are what peoplethink we are
