Communicate your research

Through the Research Portal, researcher colleagues, students, journalists and an interested general public can find your research. The portal can help to highlight and show interdisciplinary collaborations. You can show which collaborations you are involved in, what publications you have authored and other activities generated by your research.

• research collaborations
• authorship/publications
• peer review/external expert assignments

The research representative reports annually to the faculty management and is part of a faculty-wide network.
