Who are we?
Who are we?
We are SRN Midlands (the Sensitive Research Network), a collective of PhD students from the Midlands who are researching complex and emotionally demanding topics across the social sciences. We aim to meet regularly to discuss the intersecting methodological and ethical issues we face, support each other, share information and knowledge, and create a welcoming space in a peer-led informal setting. Although we are not a support network, we aim to support each other through peer-learning and sharing of information and experiences.
