University of Birmingham featured twice in UK CDS’s top 20 research impact case studies

UK CDS have just released their top 20 favourite impact stories showing how UK research is improving the lives of people around the world.

These stories were selected from the 6,975 impact case studies submitted to the Research Excellence Framework (REF) – the system that’s used to assess the research quality of all UK universities. Judges reviewed this massive database and picked the top 20 most impressive examples of UK research contributing to global development. A team of science writers worked with the relevant researchers and universities to re-write the case studies into engaging stories.

University of Birmingham has two case studies in this Top 20. These are:

The peace-building process

Building better road networks

Congratulations to our Researchers and the University’s Research Planning Team on this fantastic achievement.
