IDEA is holding a networking session on 03 May for members interested in applying for the New Foundations 2022 research funding. This session will consist of a short briefing on New Foundations, by Brenda Blake, manager of the COALESCE and New Foundations programmes in the Irish Research Council. This will be followed by discussion, and an opportunity for members to network and explore possible collaborations.
