Researchers at Kent use their expertise to tackle local, national and global challenges and address pressing public issues.

A new poster campaign celebrating the impact of this research will run in locations across Canterbury and Medway from 7 to 20 May. The campaign, designed by the Corporate Communications team, supports the University’s public engagement with research outreach programme.

The campaign highlights the public benefits of some of the most impactful research carried out at the University last year. The work featured includes scientific discoveries that could lead to new strategies for improving age-related health and for the use of immune therapy strategies to fight leukaemia; work to deliver the next generation of high speed 5G mobile networks; the discovery and identification of fossils that have changed our understanding of human evolutionary theory; and a major report recommending new housing legislation.
