Ellen Iverson, director, and Kristin O'Connell, evaluation/education associate for SERC, co-authored a paper with colleagues titled, "Building Institutional Capacity for Research Impacts: The ARIS ORIC Program," in Research Management Review, 29(2).

Drawing on experiences of 44 institutions, the paper examines how to build capacity to support researchers in designing, implementing, evaluating, and communicating broader impact activities, an increasingly important component of grant proposals and public scholarship.
