The University of Oxford has recently become a member of The Conversation – an online source of thought-provoking articles written by researchers and academics for the public in the UK and globally. It provides a platform for academics to raise the profile of their research and engage the wider world, with the freedom to discuss topical issues in a more nuanced way than is typically offered by traditional media outlets. More details about The Conversation are available here: po.st/TheConversation

Please note that 10 spaces have been reserved exclusively for Jesus College Fellows and will be allocated on a first come-first served basis.
