Sign up now to UCL’s Find an Expert media database

UCL's media team is calling on academics to sign up to the recently relaunched Find an Expert media database. The UCL Find an Expert database currently features over 900 world-leading experts from a diverse range of backgrounds who welcome inquiries from journalists on almost any subject. As one of the world's top ten leading universities, our academics are widely respected around the globe in their specialist fields, have a track record of quality research and are committed to communicating their work responsibly to the wider public; the database helps them to share their expertise more widely through media interviews or speaking engagements. We are now encouraging more UCL academics to sign up to the database or update their details, so that people in and outside of the UCL community can find out who is available for media and public engagement opportunities. Registering only takes a few minutes, as information is pulled from your IRIS profile once you sign in. All it takes is to fill in fields such as keywords relevant to your expertise and a summary of your research areas and media experience. If you are comfortable giving media interviews in more than one language, please tell us which languages, as we regularly receive inquiries from international media outlets.
