The ambition for the IRC is to become a world-leading centre of excellence, providing evidence and insights on the research and innovation system. To achieve this the IRC is looking to build a community of research and innovation experts from across the social sciences and beyond to proactively and responsively engage with the funders. In this way, the work of the IRC has the potential to inform and shape future programmes, interventions and investments, to support UKRI in delivering greater societal and economic benefits from investments in research and innovation.
Academics and researchers with expertise in the fields of innovation and research policy are welcome to become members of the IRC network. Applicants who wish to join will need to complete the membership signup form to demonstrate their interest and expertise. Decisions about membership will be agreed by the IRC Co-Directions.
