Our cohort maintenance team works to keep our study members’ contact details secure and up to date. They also trace study members who we might have lost touch with, for example if they have moved home.
The communications team works to maximise the use and impact of our study data and research findings. They also work with the cohort maintenance team to keep study members up to date on the latest findings from each survey and on plans for future surveys.
Communications and Engagement Manager (Generation New Era)
The data management team manages the information collected by field work agencies. They are responsible for cleaning and depositing the data with the UK Data Service. They also produce data documentation to help researchers understand and use the study data.
Data Engineer
The Information governance and data protection team for CLS.
The Records linkage team are responsible for coordinating and overseeing the centre’s programme of work to link administrative or other relevant records to the study data. These data linkages enhance the research potential of the information we collect through our regular study sweeps.
Our team of researchers analyse data from our four cohort studies and conduct their own research projects. The team is made up of researchers from a variety of different academic disciplines.
