Dr Timothy J. Senior
Tim's research asks how traditional responses to a complex world might be opened up to new influences. This means working with different values and methodologies to drive new lines of shared inquiry. It also means collaborating with people from very different fields of work. And that demands a new type of organisation: supersum fills this role.
Tim’s research interests span the arts, humanities, and sciences. From work on medieval European urbanism, through contemporary BioArt, dementia friendly communities, to the neural mechanisms of memory replay, there is a lot to be learned from working across different disciplines.
He has a publishing track record with over twenty articles, edited-books, working papers, and reports; his work on the design, delivery, and evaluation of innovation programmes has brought him into contact with a number of public and third-sector institutions (inc. AHRC, Wellcome Trust, and The Hunterian Museum); he has expertise in a variety of qualitative/quantitative research approaches.
