Risk has a foothold in countless fields and sub-fields of science and engineering, from meteorology and natural hazards to extreme value statistics, industrial accidents, game theory, disease science and behavioral systems. Likewise, an understanding of these issues is critical to our society’s ability to deal with risk, from a commercial, governmental and social standpoint. The LRN helps you to explore possibilities to link your science to its application end-point, for the benefit of society as a whole.
This section provides an entry point for those in Science and Engineering who wish to learn more about what the LRN represents for their respective communities. It explains the wide-reaching benefits of participation, and the many ways in which you can participate - whether as a partner organisation or as an individual member. Sitting alongside the LRN partner organisations and individual research members, and forming the “backbone” of the scientific network, are the Risk Fellows. Our Fellows are leading international experts in key areas of risk, carefully selected by the LRN Research Advisory Board to answer and advise the business community directly.
