IT Services

Specialised services supporting research projects.

Research support team

A new research support team in IT Services came into existence at the start of August 2010.

The team's remit is to provide advice and support to researchers about using IT systems within their research and is funded from resources provided by a number of contributing Schools. They have already made good contacts with the research community.

The team are also responsible for supporting High Performance Computing (HPC) within the University; they have been setting up the new facility purchased by the University at the end of July and preparing this for service. They have also set up a complementary system purchased with a research grant in the Physics Department. The University's system provides a core set of facilities that we expect to be enhanced through research grants and other systems purchased by Schools.

Change to Online Researcher Profiles: Publications

You are therefore advised to move all your publications from the Publications (free form text) page to the new Publications List page.

The publications (free form text) page will continue to be displayed on your web profile if you do not make these changes, however you will no longer be able to edit your publication details.

For further guidance on adding publications to your profiles see the Sussex Direct Support Guide: Publications list.

Once you have moved your publications into the new publications list you will need to update your profile preferences as outlined below.

Doctoral researchers interested in setting up a web profile should sign up to attend a Profolio workshop for guidance in developing and making the most of this facility. See Doctoral School Researcher Development Events for further details.

Any queries related to online profiles for doctoral researchers should be addressed to TLDU-Researcher@sussex.ac.uk.
