Professors Matt Lambon Ralph and Chris Taylor have been appointed Associate Vice-Presidents for Research.

As Associate Vice-Presidents for Research they, together with Professor Nigel Vincent, AVP Research (Graduate Education), will assist the Deputy President and Deputy Vice-Chancellor, Professor Dame Nancy Rothwell, who, following Professor Simon Gaskell's departure from the University, has assumed overall strategic leadership for the research and graduate education agenda within the University.

They will also work closely with other senior Officers of the University, notably the Associate Deans for Research and staff in the Research Office, to further develop the University’s strategy and policy for research in line with the Advancing the Manchester 2015 Agenda.
