In our weekly Research Culture Uncovered conversations we are asking what is Research Culture and why does it matter? In this episode of Season 6, Emma Spary chats with Dr Clare Barker and Professor Amelia DeFalco from the University of Leeds about the LivingBodiesObjects project they are working on, empowering alternative ways of conducting research. In this project funded by a Wellcome Trust Research Development Award, the team is pioneering a non-hierarchical leadership model that prioritises accessibility, care, and accountability. They emphasise the importance of creating safe and inclusive spaces, challenging conventional approaches, and bridging the gap between researchers and those being researched.
Key topics and messages:
- Importance of creating safe spaces and pushing beyond comfort zones
- Benefits and challenges of developing a non-hierarchical leadership model based on accessibility, care, and accountability
- Alternative research approaches resisting productivity and competition
- Collaboration with Creative Partners for accessible formats using technology
- Bridging the gap between researchers and those being researched
- Space for experimentation, risk-taking, and learning from mistakes
- Emphasising health, well-being, and collaboration in the project
