Professor Catherine Lyall is offering a PhD position to study the factors that shape the processes of knowledge exchange and the roles that intermediaries perform as knowledge brokers. Specifically, the project will examine whether the Genomics Forum’s mode of action, within the context of the former ESRC Genomics Network, constituted a novel form of knowledge brokerage.
Funding is available to cover fees (at the UK/EU rate) and possibly a small stipend. Further details are available at
