Clear vision/purpose for the NuCORE. This coul also help with networking internally.

Perception that hard silos are false narratives as we speak to a good number of people anyhow but linking in with the clinic is a key need. Emphasis on talk vs action when hosting events with a need to engage clinicians on their terms.

Need for a broad and accessible network to matchmake nimbly as opportunities present.

Scope should cover projects to programmes.

Key need to link investigators across campuses and matchmaking will open doors.

Need to ensure PPI/E engagement early on, how might the NUCORE facilitate this?]]> 2021-02-22 14:25:42 UTC https://padlet.com/sarahwhalley85/15kahwfo0zkypoem/wish/1226609658 Team 2 (2nd breakout) https://padlet.com/sarahwhalley85/15kahwfo0zkypoem/wish/1226652309
-Come together and learn from each other's experience. Sage feels a little separate from other faculties (FMS, HASS). Contacts are often developed on a personal level rather than institutional.

- Create spaced to bring people together. Regular, informal networking/presentation events can promote interaction and lead to collaborative research (Frequency 2-3 month?). Real world problems don't usually fit neatly into our engineering groups, so focus must be given to bring together people from various backgrounds. 

- How can we ensure the same level of cooperation from all faculties? Do we all understand the same by "inter-disciplinarity"? 
- Networking should get us to a point where we all understand the same language.

How to take things forward?
- Internal funding schemes to promote interaction to develop specific projects that could lead to a funding application.

- Can MRes courses be a platform for collaboration? Students have various backgrounds (Medicine, Engineering, etc). 

- PPI (Public and Patiente Involvement). Helping people putting proposal together to be aware of PPI.

Activities which should be done:

- Network events.
Groups are very inward facing.
Need to open up a library of networks.
This would be a key added value.
We need access to real expertise.
This must be combined to solve problems.
Especially true for LARGE problems.

- High level strategy for interdisciplinary research.
Perceived to be missing at Newcastle.

- Coordination for public engagement and coproduction.
Again, missing and misunderstood at Newcastle.

- Systems for linking up with clinical access.
- Clinical links are necessary.
- Additional resources are necessary in this area.
-It is essential that researchers can access clinicians.
- The clinical research directorate must be supported.

- Developing new calls.
- We should be interacting with higher bodies.
- We should be influencing the direction of funding.

- Mentoring.
- ESRs should be provided with mentors.

(continued discussion from mentoring)
- Skills academy.
Provides training in research culture and ethics.
This may help develop a culture of innovation.

## Prioritisation of activities:

- In the first six months:
Brand identity must be established.
A method of internal advertising must be created.
Need a big presence in order to be able to "see each other".

## Assets in place:

- End to end science.
