During this online, hour-long session, Sir Geoff Mulgan, who co-leads the International Public Policy Observatory (IPPO) and chairs a European Union programme on ‘Whole of Government Innovation’, will discuss the changing landscape of evidence synthesis.
We will particularly focus on new technological tools – new data sources, methods for analysis and synthesis, including generative AI, and methods for linking action to evidence, and how these can best be used in practice.
The discussion will explore how new tools are improving our ability to synthesise evidence and more clearly connect research evidence with public policy outcomes.
Speakers will include:
Basil Mahfouz, a PhD student in UCL Department of Science, Technology, Engineering and Public Policy (STEaPP), who is looking at novel ways to map the links between research supply and demand by looking at the dynamics of the spread of research.
Tom Wilkinson, Chief Data Officer in the Scottish Government a specialist in the field of collective intelligence, who is building tools to help networks of people and computers make better decisions than any one individual.
James Thomes, deputy director of the EPPI Centre, a leading centre of excellence for research synthesis and its methodology.
Annette Boaz, professor in Health and Social Care Policy at the London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine, and a leading expert on the impact of research on policy and practice.
The discussion will be followed by a Q&A session, where the audience will have the opportunity to pose questions to the panellists.

This event will be a forum for policymakers and experts to exchange ideas, share best practice, and discuss new approaches to address the complex challenges of linking action to evidence. It will also be an opportunity to explore which tools and approaches need more evaluation and assessment
