The ACGR Graduate Research Impact Blog aims to promote the value that graduate researchers bring to a knowledge-based economy and our future prosperity. We want to highlight the importance of research graduates for the volume and quality of research conducted in Australia, the impacts Australia’s research graduates have through the research they conduct, and the vast and diverse impacts they have throughout their careers.
