The Office of Research and Innovation Services, led by Dr Keats Nelms, provides leadership, advice and support in:
- The operations and management of research services in support of the University's strategic goals.
- Integrating strategic and commercial support for the development of high value and high potential programs, projects and partnerships of institution-wide relevance and/or significant commercial value to deliver national and international impact.
We support Deputy Vice-Chancellor (Research and Innovation), Professor Keith Nugent, and work closely together with other areas of the Research and Innovation (R&I) Portfolio: the Office of the Dean HDR, Research Initiatives and Infrastructure and ANU Enterprise.
These activities are supported by a number of Committees, Authorised Delegates and Research Policies, Procedures and Guidelines, and strive for consistent improvements to business operations and service delivery.
The establishment of the Office of Research and Innovation Services resulted from a realignment in the R&I Portfolio bringing together the teams previously grouped in the Research Services Division (RSD) and the Office of Business Engagement and Commercialisation (BEC). This structure reflects our commitment to facilitating the delivery of an integrated suite of services in partnership with ANU research community. Our approach to research support is based on connection and collaboration – both within the Portfolio and with College professional and academic staff – to enable the delivery of the University research goals.
