Research Impact SIG Networking Session - Thursday 27 March 2025

The ARMS Research Impact Special Interest Group (RI-SIG) hosts monthly networking sessions on the last Thursday of each month from 1–2 PM AEDT/AEST.

These sessions provide an opportunity to discuss current research impact challenges and opportunities. We offer a mix of guest speaker presentations and open, informal discussions on various topics, fostering connections and idea-sharing within our community.

In this session we are delighted to welcome special guest speaker Dr Anne-Maree Dowd, Executive Manager Performance and Evaluation at CSIRO. Anne-Maree is co-author of Cornerstones of Impact Management: how to plan, implement, assess and understand factors for success (forthcoming 2025).
