Science, Technology, Arts & Humanities Research Collective (STAHRC)
STAHRC is a research-focused collective, directed by Dr Alan Chamberlain. The collective spans disciplines enabling us to work with a range of Researchers, Academics, Artists, and leading experts to carry out research, create artworks/performances and develop technology for social benefit.
The collective was established to enable, develop, and support new research projects – functioning as both a think-tank and group. By taking this approach we aim to develop a multidisciplinary research culture which spans the arts and sciences which provides a platform to engage with the public and policy/lawmakers in a responsible way. A core part of our mission is to work with the ÀÖ²¥´«Ã½’s Researcher Academy to create opportunities and support the development of Research Staff (Researchers) at the University.
By bringing people together from a range of research backgrounds we will develop an environment that encourages creativity and inclusivity and supports a range of knowledge-exchange activities. Our creative, sometimes experimental approaches and ways of thinking mean that we can be open, flexible, and responsive.
