In conversation with Dr Rachel Handforth (CRAC [1]/Vitae [2]). In our weekly Research Culture Uncovered conversations we are asking what is Research Culture and why does it matter? In Season 2, we are in conversation with a number of presenters from the Researcher Education and Development Scholarship International Conference [3] of 2022. In this episode we cover:
- Leaky pipeline? What do we mean?
- Structural inequalities [4]
- Inequalities in entry to postgraduate research degrees
- Inequalities in progression in research for underrepresented groups
- Ableism
- Barriers to disclosure
