Join the HSS Interactive Mapping Tool for Networks and Research Collaborations!

You are warmly invited to join in the development of a prototype interactive mapping tool for networks and research collaborations the School of the Humanities and Social Sciences are designing as part of the HSS Research Framework


About the mapping tool: the goal of the project is to create an innovative, living support tool for researchers to use in understanding research activities, mapping and developing research networks, exploring collaborations, and developing research projects.

Through the mapping tool you can begin to visualise and build your research networks, identify researchers to connect with, filter according to research themes and topics, funders, places, publications and much more to identify potential collaborators and better understand our complex research landscape and potential opportunities.

The School’s aim is to develop this together with researchers and we welcome your contributions and feedback as this process unfolds and builds. 


We request that in joining the Cambridge HSS Interactive Mapping Tool for Networks and Research Collaborations members:

Opt in to agree that we may draw your publications and grants from data held at the University of Cambridge regularly to populate the network map (we are in the process of initialising this, so please bear with us!)

Opt in to agree we may use and make visible your responses to the ‘About your research’ survey and use your responses to the connection questions survey to add meaning to the network map. 

Once you've opted in, you will need to validate your email - check your spam folder if you don't see it within a few minutes. We aim to approve your profile as quickly as possible but this may take a few days. 

For full details on how your data will be used, please see the Privacy Statement

If you have any questions or feedback, please contact HSSResearchFramework@admin.cam.ac.uk. Thank you!
