What is search_researcher?

Searches https://profiles.ucl.ac.uk for UCL researcher profiles by keyword, department, and field of research. Returns paginated expert records with names, roles, departments, research fields, profile summaries, and other available researcher details. It runs on Notte's browser infrastructure and returns structured JSON, so you can call it like any other API — pass query, department, field_of_research, page, per_page and get the result back without maintaining a scraper.
