Professor Sarah Neal, Director of Research for the Department, said: 鈥淲e have recently launched the departmental blog as an exciting and accessible way to make our research activities and achievements easily and publicly visible.
鈥淭he department blog aims to effectively communicate and engage wider academic and non-academic audiences in the timely and innovative research work that we are doing in Sociological Studies.鈥
The blog recently launched with a debut post by Professor Kate Reed, titled 鈥楻ethinking community across life and loss鈥. The post looks at Kate鈥檚 major Economic and Social Research Council (ESRC) funded project into baby loss, and seeks to analyse the beneficial role that social research can actually play in both uncovering hidden communities and creating new ones.
Professor Sarah Neal added: 鈥淚nitially, we will publish a new blog entry every two months and, in the longer term, intend to have monthly posting updates. Past blogs will be archived and available.鈥
