Bristol Clear
As members of research staff at Bristol our Vice-Chancellor's Fellows are not only central to their particular research area, but also part of a wider research staff group which, across the University, comprises of over 1,400 individuals; as such you are crucial to the success of our institution.

PURE
PURE is the University of Bristol's research information system and institutional repository. We would like all the Vice-Chancellor's Fellowship cohort to create public profiles on PURE. Specific, research related outcomes will be collected via PURE, such as publications, external/internal public engagement, impact or further funding. Training will be delivered for the cohort.
