Remit & Mission | Values statement | External Relations | Estate Management | Commitments & Objectives
The Deputy Director's Office and the External Relations Office manage the corporate profile and communication strategy of the Babraham Research Campus. The office aims to improve internal and external communication to our stakeholders through a strong corporate identity and commitment to dialogue with society about our research portfolio and the implications of our discoveries in biomedical research. The office is responsible for the management of the interface between Babraham and its various funding agencies, the media, the community as well as the management of strategic planning, implementation and communication of policy/strategy plans and monitoring of progress against these plans.
The Institute, through the activities of the Corporate Affairs office, aims to facilitate constructive communication with the media and to promote effective networking with the bioscience community and our stakeholders. Developing communication skills that are tailored to a non-scientific audience is therefore essential to fulfil these aims and enable the scientific community to listen and respond to the needs and concerns of our various public audiences and operate effectively with the media.
Institute scientists, staff and PhD students are encouraged to participate in a variety of public outreach events to discuss their research, the scientific discoveries they make and the implications these advances have for human health. The Babraham Institute has an active Science and Society Programme that aims to engage a broad range of public audiences in dialogue about its science, in order to create a better understanding and appreciation of the Institute's research, its potential applications and implications, and an opportunity for the concerns of stakeholders to be heard and discussed with experts. We also seek to understand better the societal context for our work and to actively and constructively engage with those who have concerns about either the ethical issues or technological implications surrounding our work.
