Reflecting on "Is a Person a Place?" from IATL to BCUR
IATL module Global Connections student Vivienne Ponsford created a stop motion animation exploring the question "Is a person a place?" and was supported by IATL to present at BCUR 2026, University of Glasgow. Making the animation was one of the most rewarding parts of my degree so far, as it brought together academic research with something deeply personal...presenting at BCUR was a particularly special experience. I was nervous as it was a creative presentation, and I felt quite exposed, but the audience's reaction was overwhelmingly positive'
Online survey exploring wellbeing in the UK research workforce
Do you have insight into staff wellbeing support in a UK Higher Education Institution?
We are looking for individuals with knowledge of organisational policies, programmes, and/or practices to take part in a survey exploring what institutions are doing to address causes of workplace stress and poor wellbeing among researchers and research professionals.
The survey aims to identify current provisions, gaps, and examples of good practice across the sector.

Have your voice heard across Europe!
The IATL Student Research Support team is partnering with an Erasmus+ funded project on Undergraduate Research in Europe — the same initiative helping to launch European versions of our popular event, leading up to a Posters in Brussels showcase later this year.
As part of this project, a team led by Humboldt University in Berlin is exploring how undergraduate students across Europe (including the UK and Ireland) perceive research, researchers, and civic engagement. This is a chance for Warwick students to make sure your perspectives shape this international study.
If you鈥檇 like to help ensure Warwick voices are represented, please take a few minutes to complete this short survey:
Your contribution really does make a difference — and it only takes a moment! The survey is currently open until midday on 31st March.
