TDCC-LSH Info sessions completed

What happened in the sessions?

Each session had two parts. The first hour was dedicated to the call itself: an introduction to the 2026 process, key dates, assessment criteria, and what TDCC-LSH is looking for in a strong proposal. We were joined by PI from previously granted NWO TDCC-LSH projects, who gave an honest and candid account of their experience from writing the proposal through to executing the project. They shared practical tips, challenges they encountered along the way, and advice for prospective applicants. This part of the session was particularly well received and raised many questions from the audience. 

The Pitch-Your-Idea floor 

During the second hour, we had the Pitch-Your-Idea where participants were invited to briefly share information about their ideas, such as which challenge or gap their idea addresses, and what kind of collaborators or expertise they are looking for. This was a valuable opportunity for the LSH community to connect, spot synergies, and potentially find partners before the EoI deadline.
