Research Information Sessions (RISe)


RISe is Research and Innovation's research development programme

Research and Innovation supports you throughout the lifecycle of your funded research project

The RISe programme provides a range of workshops, seminars and panels that support staff in realising their research development goals. The programme covers a broad range of topics including research funding, grant writing, and developing a grant leadership profile. It is coordinated by the Research Development Team, and workshops are delivered by professional services and academic support staff from across LSE. As your research career develops, and the research and innovation funding landscape evolves, we hope you will use the sessions to build and develop the skills you need to flourish.

The Research Development Team and RISe Programme support can also help build custom training for your academic unit. Our team is skilled in training development for grant-winning and can advise on the best sessions to meet your learning outcomes including workshops, seminars, panels and learning materials (virtually and in-person). For support with bespoke training please contact your Research Development Manager in the first instance.

Knowledge exchange sessions are run by the KEI Integrated Service team through their training programme. The sessions are primarily aimed at researchers of any level. View upcoming sessions here.
