The DSRN has four main goals:

  • Offering leading-edge digital methods training to staff and PGRs
  • Facilitating collaboration on digital research within the Faculty, across the University, and externally
  • Encouraging reputation building for researchers both internally and externally
  • Supporting PGRs doing digital research.

The aim of the DSRN is to offer a ‘home’ for digital researchers in FSS outside of their Schools, offering an inclusive venue for learning, collaboration, and support. 

Our current leadership team is:

Kate Miltner and Ysabel Gerrard, Co-Directors

Laurence Brooks - Methods Lead

Niall Docherty - PGR Lead

Dorothea Kleine - Collaboration Lead

Harrison Smith - Membership Lead

Sharon Wagg - Communications Lead
