Networks

TORCH has supported around 50 research networks since its establishment in 2013. Bringing together researchers at different career stages, TORCH Networks promote interdisciplinary thinking around a vast range of cultural, aesthetic, social, and political issues; historical periods; and methodologies. The Networks scheme, which supports groups for up to two years, has facilitated collaborations amongst scholars within the Humanities Division, and the Social Sciences, Medical Sciences, and MPLS Divisions. TORCH Networks build new communities whilst cultivating expansive modes of thinking about some of the most important questions occupying academics across disciplines today.
