As we continue to gain ground in intensity, impact and reputation, we have recognised the need to focus our research. Our new Focus Areas of health; data science; sustainability; social futures; and future work and industry comprise a number of interrelated research disciplines, in which we already excel, and have been carefully considered to build on our previous Research Strategy. We have the flexibility to explore and support emerging areas of research interest, but we will continue to grow and leverage those areas where we are already recognised as having centres and researchers of national and international renown.
