Drawing on interviews with 21 researchers, the report highlights how safety is shaped not only by individual precautions but also by institutional structures, managerial support, and broader academic cultures. Vaughan shows that researcher safety is deeply influenced by environmental factors, such as university policies, supervisory practices, and workplace dynamics, and argues that effective protection requires situating researchers within their full institutional context.Link:Read the documentLanguage:EnglishDate: 11.03.2026Proposed by:PPHSSource:VOX-Pol, 2025
