Further Together

At Leeds, we want to celebrate the people behind many of the discoveries, inventions and research that are making a difference in all kinds of ways.

This is a space to recognise not only the research leaders and the contributors, the professors and the postgrads, but also the technicians and the unsung heroes.

So let’s celebrate the work, the perseverance, the achievements – and especially the fascinating people behind them.
