The Academic Ideas Lab
 Reaching large audiences with research

”Academic Ideas Lab is a real asset to researchers in the age of public engagement.” Dr Sophie Oliver, BBC/AHRC New Generation Thinker 2020

Are you putting together a grant proposal for a research project of significance to the public?

Are you evidencing impact from broadcast for REF case studies?

Are you interested in opportunities to present your subject on the TV or radio?

Do you have an idea for a TV or radio programme that's based in your area of expertise?
The Academic Ideas Lab provides academics and research-based institutions with the contacts and know-how they need to reach very large audiences with the fruits of their research. We match academics with the best TV and radio producers to develop groundbreaking programmes for both UK and international broadcast. We discover and grow new expert on-screen talent, and support the worlds of broadcast and academia working in partnership. And increasingly we evaluate and report on impact from research that has featured on screen and on air. We have years of experience forging collaborations resulting in high quality research-based content that reaches huge audiences in Britain and beyond.
