Our series of events in Digital Cultural Heritage Research Network begins next Friday, 29 January. More than thirty people from across ten Schools within the University and a number of cultural heritage organisations are attending to share research ideas and network.

Keynote speaker Rebecca Sinker, Curator of Digital Learning at Tate, will talk about ‘fruitful conversations and cultural misunderstandings in digital research collaborations’, and network members will present their own research to spark discussions about collaborations, new projects and ideas, and ways forward for resarch in this area.

The Network has been funded by the University’s Academic Networking Fund, and is organised by Jen Ross, Sian Bayne, James Loxley, Chris Speed and Claire Sowton.
