Abstract
This seminar is open to all researchers and research-facing professional service staff and is recommended for those interested in using creative methods to engage people with research and disseminate their findings beyond traditional academic journals.

Attendees will be shown examples of pages that researchers have created for their research and be provided with a brief overview of how to construct a page for their own research.
