Had such an inspiring day at the Thrive symposium this week. So many ideas to take forwards and can't wait to see what happens next with the Mission projects. And bonus points for the location adjacent to Batman filming on Hope Street🦇🍿
The Thrive team at @liverpooluni.bsky.social hosted a wonderful and thought-provoking symposium this week. They shared a new approach to increasing diversity and inclusivity in research leadership. Plus three fantastic AHRC-funded Mission projects. This is just the start... 💡
