Internal Research Support Programs
VPR Workshops
Each year, the Office of the Vice President for Research hosts a series of workshops on various topics designed to help faculty accelerate their research activities. Past workshops are available to UK faculty, staff and students (by logging in with linkblue) at the Video Library. In addition, handouts are available on a Sharepoint site (linkblue login required).
As new workshops are scheduled, the details will be posted here.
