Rewarding and recognising Team Infrastructure Roles
Channel: csvconf
Date: 2023-05-27

The rise of large research teams addressing complex challenges and a focus on improving openness of research has necessitated the growth of professional team infrastructure roles (TIRs). These roles support research through specialised skills and play an important role in ensuring the success of a research project. Nevertheless, TIRs are neglected under current reward and recognition procedures. This talk will introduce these roles, their challenges and will propose system level changes to recognise TIR contributions. We invite you to reimagine their vision for the future of research and the people that contribute to the process. Acknowledging the contributions of all research roles will help retain skill and expertise, and lead to collaborative research ecosystems that are well-positioned to address complex research challenges.
