Residential training 2022
The 2022 training resumed as an in-person residential course taking place at the University of Bristol from 10-12 August. The focus of this year’s training was to provide students with an understanding of how research informs policy and how to engage with policy-makers in order to influence policy.
The 2.5 days of training was delivered by Dr Catrin Moore (St. George’s, University of London), Dr Darryl Hill (University of Bristol), Dr Linzy Elton (University College London), Dr Frances Edwards (University of Bristol and North Bristol NHS Trust), Rhiannon Wilson (Policy Bristol) and Dr Joanne Godwin (Policy Bristol).
Students completed the training by presenting their ‘brief’ to a panel comprising of Thangam Debonnaire (MP for Bristol West and Shadow Leader of the House of Commons), Louise Norton Smith (Head of Global Antimicrobial Resistance Strategy, Dept of Health and Social Care), Dr Phil Packer (Innovation Lead AMR and Vaccines, Innovate UK) and Dr Joanne Godwin (Policy Bristol).
