A community that turns research into standards.
The Glasgow Research Standardisation Network (GRSN) brings together researchers and professionals from different areas to share experience and support each other about the translation of research outcomes to standards.
We hold various in-person events and have a teams page.
The goal of GRSN is to increase awareness of standardisation as a possible path to be followed by researchers in the University, with the long-term aim of enhancing the University’s standards-related impact. In short, to create a UoG-wide standardization community of practice.

The translation of any research works into standards (or the often closely related policy) is a direct way to address EPSRC’s goal of achieving meaningful impact and engagement with society from research, to support technology transfer, and to encourage commercial take-up of research results.
