Reuters Institute Journalist Fellows explore the lessons learned in lockdown
The Journalist Fellows from the Reuters Institute for the Study of Journalism opened the Institute’s Trinity term’s Global Journalism Seminars with a discussion on lessons learned from their research during the COVID-19 lockdown.
A unique group of Journalist Fellows from Kyrgyzstan, India, Hungary, Norway, Finland, Indonesia, Pakistan, Kenya, Egypt, Nicaragua and Brazil explored where journalism is, where it’s going, and where it could be around the world.
Chairing the seminar, Meera Selva, Director of the Fellowship Programme and Deputy Director of the Institute, said: “We have carried on the Fellowship here despite lockdown, speaking about the future of journalism and the challenges facing the news industry because it feels like it’s vital to have these conversations now more than ever.”

Green Templeton College is proud of its connection with the Reuters Institute for the Study of Journalism. Journalist Fellows are given Visiting Scholar status at Green Templeton during their time in Oxford, allowing them access to the college’s wide-ranging facilities, and Principal Sir Michael Dixon is a member of the Reuters Institute Steering Committee.
The Global Journalism Seminars usually take place in Green Templeton’s EP Abraham Lecture Theatre but are currently being held online.
The Radcliffe Observatory has stood for over 250 years.
But heritage requires care and the building now needs restoration to preserve it for future generations.

The college is delighted to share the completion of the south landscaping at the Radcliffe Observatory 🌿
This new shared landscape sits at the heart of the Radcliffe Observatory Quarter, made possible by the Stephen A. Schwarzman Foundation.
Work continues on Phase 1 of the Radcliffe Observatory project, including a new main entrance via the East Wing and improved accessibility with step-free access to all entrances.

🦖🦴 Major archaeological discovery at the Radcliffe Observatory 🦖🦴
What began as routine landscaping work on the front lawn has taken a rather unexpected turn…
Earlier this week, contractors uncovered what appear to be dinosaur bones.
Initial (very enthusiastic) assessments suggest the remains could belong to a previously unknown species, tentatively named Green Templetonosaurus.
We’ll share further updates as soon as we know more… 🦖
When the researcher becomes the patient.
In this thought-provoking reflection for The Times Magazine, Research Fellow Karl Smith Byrne shares what tackling cancer has taught him both in his work and in his own life.
Diagnosed with rectal cancer at just 27, Karl brings a rare dual perspective to his field, combining research with lived experience to advocate for greater focus on prevention and more patient-centred science.
A compelling insight into resilience and the future of cancer research.
