We have closed blogs on the UKRI website

We’ve discovered through talking to users and tracking web traffic that you aren’t get what you’re looking for from our blogs.

We’ve been publishing important updates in blog posts, when they’d be easier to find in specific areas of the UKRI site. And our blogs don’t let you comment and communicate with us directly.

New communication channels

So we have closed our blogs and are updating those parts of the website where you already go.

We’ve also launched a Substack channel where you can find and engage with opinion on the future of research and innovation.

And we’re using LinkedIn newsletters and articles to communicate with researchers and innovators directly, so you can pinpoint the specialists and opinion most relevant to you.
