Been busy with @milespadgett.bsky.social, @rentraveller.bsky.social making the case that portability is key to fairness in REF2029 wonkhe.com/blogs/portab...
Portability within REF remains key to fairness
Maria Delgado, Nandini Das, and Miles Padgett warn that separating research outputs from the researchers who created them in REF 2029 would undermine the integrity of the whole research environment

To some extent we did. Originally we were planning to fund 40 CDTs, but by repriorisation in EPSRC/ forward commitments we increased to over 60. Was that enough? No but there is only so much can do with flat cash in inflation times. But at least that is an extra 1500 students that will be supported
