RRI Explained- A ResBios Podcast

On this week's episode of the RRI Explained podcast, Chris Styles talks with Prof Ibo van de Poel, an expert in Ethics and Technology at the School of Technology, Policy and Management at the Delft University of Technology. We talk about Prof van de Poel's work with the PRISMA Project, a pilot study with 8 companies to help them integrate Responsible innovation into their innovation process and business practices. From this, the PRISMA Project published an article with six lessons of doing responsible innovation in industry. Music Credit:  Pamgaea by Kevin MacLeod Link: https://incompetech.filmmusic.io/song.

In this week's episode of RRI Explained, we talk to a long-time friend of ResBios, Dr Vasiliki Kiparoglou. Vasiliki is the Chief Operating Officer of the NIHR Oxford BRC and has worked extensively with a number of EU projects in regard to RRI in Health and Social Sciences, with a particular focus on gender and inclusion within this field. We discuss how a lack of representation in higher research and managerial roles in health science research is impacting the research community, and how different approaches to academic recognition may be a necessity moving forward.   Having been a key partner with the StarBios 2 project and an advisor to ResBios, it is great to catch up with Vasiliki and see how NIHR Oxford BRC is promoting the ideals of RRI and equality within the field of health science.     Music Credit:  Pamgaea by Kevin MacLeod Link: https://incompetech.filmmusic.io/song.

In this episode of the RRI explained podcast, we are joined by Dr. phil. René von Schomberg, who some of you might remember was a contributor at our joint event with StepChange Project, where we discussed the role of #RRI and #Citizenscience in #bioscience research!   Well, we wanted to talk to Rene further about the past, present and future of RRI!   For more information about the work that René  has done visit his website: https://renevonschomberg.wordpress.com/ Music Credit:  Pamgaea by Kevin MacLeod Link: https://incompetech.filmmusic.io/song. .  License: https://filmmusic.io/standard-license  

In this week's episode of RRI explained, Chris speaks to Nicola Quadri from the Time4CS. We discuss the benefits and challenges of engaging researchers in Citizen Science projects, and how the Time4CS project hopes to provide the support and guidance needed to instil these ideas into the minds of academics and students so that how researchers engage with citizens is at the forefront when planning research projects, not an afterthought.   For more information about the TIME4CS project visit their website: https://www.time4cs.eu/ Music Credit:  Pamgaea by Kevin MacLeod Link: https://incompetech.filmmusic.io/song...

In this episode of RRI Explained, Chris speaks to Stefan Philipp, A coordinator at the CHERRIES project, where we talk about the issues facing modern health care (apart from COVID) and how they use RRI to work together with citizens and healthcare providers to produce working solutions to these modern problems.

In this episode of RRI Explained, Chris speaks to Carla Perucca Iannitelli, Policy Strategic Officer for StepChange and Science for Change, about the benefits of using Citizen Science, how collaboration and different experiences benefit EU projects and engaging with stakeholders and citizens.    Music Credit:  Pamgaea by Kevin MacLeod Link: https://incompetech.filmmusic.io/song/4193-pamgaea License: https://filmmusic.io/standard-license

The RRI Explained Podcast is back with something a little different. This time Chris Styles speaks with Associate Professor Elsa González-Esteban, a project coordinator with the ETHNA System project.  Elsa and Chris talk about how the Ethna System provides both a foundation and the flexibility needed to create bespoke ethical governance systems, across Higher Education, Funding and Research Centres, and how the other pillars of RRI inform governance.

In this episode of #RRIExplained, Chris Styles speaks with Saskia Tenberg from the Universität Bremen, about how the principles of RRI needs to be taught throughout a person's life, to cement these ideals before misconceptions and bias can set in.

In this episode of RRI Explained, Chris speaks with Dr Magdalena Żadkowska from the University of Gdansk. They talk about gender equality and how equal representation can benefit bioscience research. Gender equality is one of the key pillars for RRI and although a lot of attention has been made to the issues facing female researchers, and more recently non-binary and trans researchers, progress seems to be slow. Dr Magdalena Żadkowska talks about the issues of making a workplace welcome for all, and how equal representation can benefit science in more ways than you might have thought!   Music Credit:  Pamgaea by Kevin MacLeod  Link: https://incompetech.filmmusic.io/song/4193-pamgaea License: https://filmmusic.io/standard-license

Open Access and Open Science should level the playing fields for researchers in all fields all over the world, and with the "wicked problems" we are all facing, open access is a tool that can help us all work together! But as well as opportunities, there are challenges we must address if we are to fully embrace Open Access. This week Chris talks to Prof Dimitar Djilianov from the Agrobioinstitute about Open Access and Open Science, and their place in the field of biosciences Music Credit:  Pamgaea by Kevin MacLeod  Link: https://incompetech.filmmusic.io/song/4193-pamgaea License: https://filmmusic.io/standard-license

Join our host Chris Styles as he explores the interconnection between biosciences and society, and how Responsible Research and Innovation (RRI) can help bridge the gap.  Chris Styles is a project officer for ResBios, an EU funded project that aims to embed RRI practices into bioscience research institutes across Europe.   In this podcast, Chris will interview key members of the ResBios team to discuss the five main pillars of RRI; Ethics, Open Access, Gender, Public Engagement, and Education. As well as inviting coordinators from other RRI projects and bioscience researchers, to share their experience of RRI.  So why not join us as we explain RRI.
