Join the MORPHSS project team for their catalogue launch event and panel discussion!
Date: Thursday 19th March
Time: 15.00-16.30
This event introduces the MORPHSS Catalogue of open research practices in the arts, humanities and social sciences - a living resource that documents 30 open research practices across these disciplines, providing a starting point for the exploration of open practices in AHSS - and invites responses and discussion from an invited panel of experts across these fields.
Funded by the AHRC, Wellcome Trust and Research England Development (RED) fund, MORPHSS is a three-year project that aims to catalogue, pilot, and showcase open research practices in the arts, humanities and social sciences (AHSS), with a particular focus within the social sciences on qualitative research. The project seeks to counterbalance dominant accounts of open research that are tailored primarily to quantitative research in STEM disciplines and that tend to overlook the richness and diversity of (open) research practice across qualitative, interpretive and arts based approaches. As well as foregrounding the diversity of open practices across AHSS, MORPHSS aims to theorise openness itself in ways that are more appropriate for these disciplines.
In this launch event and panel discussion, researchers from MORPHSS present on the catalogue and recent work, before a panel discussion and Q&A offers a series of additional perspectives on questions surrounding openness in AHSS fields. Speakers include Lutfi Bin Othman (University of Cambridge), @henrygonnet.bsky.social (Leeds Arts University), Corinne Jola (Abertay University) and Natasha Mauthner (Newcastle University), with the session chaired by Samuel Moore (University of Cambridge and MORPHSS project PI).
