ADR UK is establishing an Expert Assessor Directory (EAD), which will consist of informed and experienced expert reviewers and panellists, who will play a role in the assessment of applications to different funding opportunities.
The EAD’S main purpose is to hold a pool of experts in policy-relevant social science and, when possible, represent individuals who possess experience of using administrative data in research and our ADR UK flagship datasets.
The EAD’s main use at the moment is to support ADR UK’s Research Fellowships 2025 funding opportunity, and we are asking members to act as our expert assessors. So you are aware, RF2025 closes this month.
In the first instant we are seeking expert reviewers who have no conflict of interest owing to planned or submitted applications, and, if reviewers would like, they can also join the EAD. If members of this community feel they’re able to commit to reviewing a minimum of one application (with the possibility of this being up to six), please email adrfellowships@esrc.ukri.org.
If you have any questions on joining the EAD, or being an expert reviewer for RF2025, or the funding opportunity itself, please do get in contact with lola.brookes@esrc.ukir.org and steven.friend@esrc.ukri.org.
