This year, the National Institute for Health and Care Research (NIHR) Applied Research Collaboration Kent, Surrey and Sussex (ARC KSS) will be holding its fifth Research Week from Tuesday 9 - Friday 12 September 2025.
The week will include a range of learning and development events, research insight talks and presentations specifically aimed at applied health and social care researchers, including early career researchers in practice and PhD students.
Launching the full programme of events, Beth Flowers, ARC KSS Academy Manager said:
"We are pleased to announce this year's programme with the focus on celebrating Building and Mobilising Evidence for Practice. Over the course of four days, we hope to bring as many people together, as possible, from across academia and health and social care to take part in and learn all about the projects and funding opportunities that we have been funding and supporting across the region. All events are free and available for anyone to sign up to, online.
"At the end of the week, we will be holding a free, all-day, in-person event at the University of Sussex, Brighton, that includes a range of keynote speakers, workshops, a poster competition and the chance to network and meet colleagues from across the region."
