In order to make it easier to see what the outcomes of the review were, I have combined Andy's outcomes spreadsheet with the paper titles, so you can track more easily which papers were rejected / accepted / on the watch list. I have added this to our overview spreadsheet: [?xlsx icon] RDF-overview.xlsx This will be an important meeting, so I hope you can all make it.

Kind regards, Bernd From: Andy Crabtree (staff) Sent: 08 July 2026 16:26 To: Praminda Caleb-Solly (staff) ; Dario Landa Silva (staff) ; Andrew French (staff) ; Steven Furnell (staff) ; Christian Wagner (staff) ; Graham Hutton (staff) ; Chris Greenhalgh (staff) ; Bernd Stahl (staff) Cc: Tony Pridmore (staff) Subject: REF To Do Hi, I?ve updated the slide deck I sent you last week on the REF R2 outputs review in light of modest changes made earlier this week, please delete the old deck (rule 5c of the algorithm has been updated; there is a new 5d - not included - that will do the same job as the original 5c if we need to apply it in due course). Can you all please announce the start of the rolling review period to your research groups by email and at your next group meeting. Please inform staff supporting statements should be sent directly to me by email from here on in. The form is in the REF section of your shared group folders. We have a number of other actions we will need to do at some point. There?s no rush for these, this is just a heads up, make a start if you want or let them ride, I?ll give you plenty of notice when they do need doing. 1. As previously announced to staff and stated in the slide deck, outputs labelled ?DNS' (do not submit) should be reviewed and factual evidence provided to me *if and only if* it is believed a mistake has been made *and* the output is at minimum 3* 2. Sanity check outputs labelled ?accept? and ?watch? to make sure they actually DO report original research. Please flag to me if any do not, OR if the research reported is an extension of OR incremental to other research. Authors should not sanity check their own outputs. 3. Check if any of the group?s outputs, including those deleted in round 1 or labelled DNS in round 2, can be returned to other UOAs. You can see all outputs submitted by the group and if they have been nominated by authors or reviewers to other UOAs in the updated ?R2 results (read-only)? file. Outputs can be returned to multiple UOAs or panels. The list of panels is here: https://2029.ref.ac.uk/panels/main-and-sub-panels/ 4. Rank your group?s outputs. Certainly those labelled ?accept? and ?watch?. Possibly those labelled ?DNS?, at least if you feel strongly they should be included in our REF return. A simple list of output ID's (e.g., CHART1) with entries listed *in order of preference* where the first is the most preferred and the last the least will do. Put them in the order you want, not what the scores say (I will have a list that does that). It would be nice if there were some correlation between the two, but don?t be constrained by the scores, go with what you as a group think are your strongest returns. 5. This will be sooner rather than later (probably before Xmas) - provide a 2 page description (max) of who the group is and its current members (N L7, L6, L5, etc.), what it does (its core areas of research), and (this should be the main part) its key achievements since January 2021. This will feed into the SPRE statement. Once again, thanks for all your help as authors, reviewers, and team leads. I?ll be back to nag you and yours after summer. Hope you all have a good one. best wishes, andy PS what you can?t see now is me running around going ?yes, I?ve got my ******* life back for a bit? Have a good one :))) -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed... URL: -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...

Hi all, Due to the conflict with teaching COMP3020 and in light of feedback on availability, I am rescheduling the weekly meeting for 1pm. We can discuss at Christmas time whether we want to go back to12. Bernd Dear RDF members, This is the invitation for the weekly group meetings for next year.
