Inclusive research culture starts with solidarity - and that means showing up for everyone.

In the final session of the day, Tim Newton, Dean of Research Culture at King's College London, reflects on the connection between research culture change and PCE:
"It's important to do what's right and good, and not necessarily what's pragmatic for REF."

You'll maybe hear us reflecting on the festival on video and podcast sound bites (don't worry, we'll *definitely* signpost these as they come out). But we've already got some ideas percolating on how to enhance research culture at Leeds with a focus on hidden roles and diverse outputs.

In a way that feels very on brand for the idea of the #HiddenREF, there have been 4 of us from Leeds at the festival over the last two days and we didn't know we'd each be here. But that won't stop us collaborating on and coordinating our next steps!

Holly Ranger from University of Sheffield asking us whether "non-traditional" outputs is itself biased: non-traditional to whom???
Of course, using the phrase "non-traditional" accidentally centres the structures we're attempting to dismantle ("traditional").

@nickshepp.bsky.social is here too...but the camera on his phone is broken, he's a bit tired, and far less organised than Emily (he did take some notes once at a lecture in 1995. But lost them.)

Dr Raysa Rocha delivered a lightning talk on generating actionable insights to support neurodivergent workers and their wellbeing. We at Leeds are having conversations on how to support neurodivergent people in the research community, so this is exciting!
