Research and Impact Office Contacts

content

Staff of the Research Office are continuing to mostly work from home. Please contact all members of the team via email or MS Teams, in the first instance.

The Research and Impact Office supports the work of researchers across all UHI campuses and can be a point of contact for questions on many topics. We co-ordinate research strategy, research committees, policy, certain external enquiries, co-ordinate & monitor EU funds, co-ordinate funding bids, co-ordinate staff development, national assessment and develop communication tools. If you are not sure who to contact try the most appropriate and we will generally know who best to put you in touch with.
