The annual #VillumExperiment meeting for our grant holders is always a great experience with a lot of energy the room. This year we ask grant holders to come up with good and not-so-good uses of generative AI in grant proposal writing to inform our future policy in @VILLUMFONDEN.

One week to go until the launch of our new event series on experimenting with funding! Next Wed 23 Oct, we'll talk about double-blind proposal evaluation @VILLUMFONDEN, where the review panel only sees an anonymous research proposal, and the identity of the review panel is not disclosed.
