The joint funding call, now in its third year, awarded six projects up to 拢10,000 each to support innovative and collaborative activities
The third annual 果冻影院-Osaka University (OU) Strategic Partner Funds has awarded seed funds to six joint projects between 果冻影院 and OU academics.
Each of the collaborative projects received up to 拢10,000, with the funds jointly contributed by 果冻影院 and OU.
One of the funding recipients, Dr Sarabajaya Kumar, said: 鈥淚'm absolutely delighted to have been awarded the 果冻影院-OU Strategic Partner Funds grant. It has given me and my colleagues, Dr Jennifer Rode and Professor Beverley Yamamoto, a wonderful opportunity to study a critical and under-researched area whilst employing innovative methods. As disabled people听have been disproportionality affected by the COVID-19 pandemic, it is vital to understand our everyday lived experiences and the global engagement grant has enabled us to do this.鈥
