The Prosper Principal Investigator (PI) Network
The Prosper PI Network is a community of practice aimed at addressing the development needs of principal investigators (PIs) and managers of researchers and, ultimately, the career development needs of research staff. It has run 4-6 online events a year since 2020 and is open to PIs and managers of researchers across the UK. Through expert speakers, PI guest speakers and peer-led discussions, PI Network events aim to positively influence the culture within research institutions, developing PI practice and creating an environment that supports and values research staff and the academics who manage them
