CaSDaR launched our first funding call in November 2025, with applications closing on the 22nd January 2026. Our reviewers had a month to review the applications, before our review panels for the £5k funding stream and £70k funding stream met on the 5th March 2026. The quality of the applications we received was incredible and we did not know how we would be able to decide on only funding a few of those applications.
In This Issue...We discuss the process for reviewer allocation for the funding call, talk about Cassie's recent adventures (where we acted as the travel companion to chaperone her), talk about International Love Data Week 2026 and let you know about our upcoming future events.
CaSDaR's Funding Call was launched on the 5th November 2025 with an online webinar. We want to ensure that our community feel supported to apply for the funding opportunities, so we're inviting anyone who has queries to come to a Q&A session where we'll answer your queries.
