In Person Training: Systems Thinking for RSE and dRTP

Why does some research software not gain traction, even when it’s technically excellent? Often, the answer lies beyond the software itself. Factors such as users’ existing workflows, available training, incentives, organisational culture, and competing priorities can all influence whether a tool is adopted. Looking beyond the technical aspects can reveal the broader factors shaping behaviour.

DisCouRSE Focus group: The dRTP-PRISM Interface

As research becomes more digital, how are PRISMs and dRTPs learning to work together? Whether it’s AI, large-scale data analysis, research software, digital collections, advanced computing, or new forms of digital methodology, more projects than ever are drawing on the expertise of Digital Research Technical Professionals (dRTPs) and depend on close collaboration between those dRTPs and Professional Research Investment and Strategy Managers (PRISMs)

Workshop- Building a RAG AI Assistant for Your Research

Generic AI chatbots can’t see your research, and when they don’t know, they often make something up. This workshop shows you how to build your own AI assistant that answers questions from your papers, reports, notes and technical documentation, and backs every answer with the sources it used.

Single-Site to Cross-Site RoCE Network Webinar

This webinar will cover two major pieces of work conducted in 2025 by the Advanced Research Computing team at the University of Birmingham in 2025, to their private Ethernet network. The first objective was to transition from a dependency on a single-site to having cross-site redundancy, and the second was to implement a converged Ethernet network specifically to support Remote Direct Memory Access (RDMA) applications. We will discuss the implementation of these changes, the impact they had, and the lessons learnt during this work. During the webinar there will be an opportunity to ask questions.
