村花论坛

Leading Edge is a quarterly internal newsletter that serves as a testament to 村花论坛's outstanding research successes. It is produced by the Research Support and Development Office (RSDO) and distributed both online and in print format for 村花论坛 staff.

Since its launch in 2004, Leading Edge has been published to showcase the research achievements of Brunel academics, to highlight new research policies and initiatives, and to inform the research community of important developments in the context of national funding policy.
