Ariane Madden


Communications Strategist

Office of the Vice-President, Research and Innovation

As part of the VPRI communications team, I work with colleagues across the university to promote UBC’s research activities and accomplishments. I help to manage multiple websites including the Research website. I also provide website support to the Research Excellence Clusters. I provide technical and communications support to units in the VP Research & Innovation portfolio, and I am involved in all internal and external communications activities within the VPRI Office.

Contact me if:

You are a staff member in a VPRI portfolio unit looking for communications support, a member of a Research Excellence Cluster looking for support with your website, interested in promoting a UBC research or innovation story to an external audience or communicating research information to an internal audience.
