It is always a great privilege to engage with, and learn from, colleagues across the LERU network. LERU has had a significant record of policy impact in research, innovation and higher education. I am really looking forward to continuing LERU’s important work of helping to shape European and international policy and initiatives,”

Trinity has been a member of LERU since 2017 and is one of 23 research-led universities in the LERU network. Linda was appointed to the Board of LERU in May 2022.
