In June 2025, we introduced a research theme framework, as a way of bringing together and organising our membership. The framework is designed to:
- enable members to shape Cambridge Reproduction’s strategic priorities at a grassroots level;
- stimulate new, cross-disciplinary collaborations and funding applications;
- bring researchers together to create impact and engagement outside academia;
- intersect with our funding schemes, events and other activities.
The framework has three broad thematic areas that intersect with three cross-cutting contextual challenges:
The framework was introduced after a 3-month consultation of the Cambridge Reproduction membership. You can find out more about the consultation proposal and read the final report on our website.
Call for theme and challenge leads
We are looking for 2-4 people to lead each theme area, and one person to help steer each cross-cutting challenge area. This is an exciting opportunity for Cambridge Reproduction members to shape the future direction and priorities of the initiative.
If you have any questions about the introduction of the research theme framework, or if you would like to discuss the possibility of becoming involved, please contact the Programme Manager, Christina Rozeik.
