Grant Brainstorming Event

IRiSCaL colleagues came together for an engaging and productive knowledge exchange event focused on developing potential grant ideas, future research directions, and opportunities for grant-related partnership and collaboration.

The event created a valuable space for colleagues to exchange expertise, reflect on strategic priorities, and identify opportunities for future collective work.
