SPIN-D is excited to open our third call for Inclusion in Practice projects under the Flexible Funding initiative, designed specifically to support Early Career Researchers (ECRs). This initiative funds projects that deepen our understanding of dementia or build upon existing research to drive real-world impact.

Focus Areas for Round 3

While we continue to support research into dementia risk factors and disease progression, this round places a special focus on practical application.

We are particularly inviting projects that aim to translate research into practice around understanding brain health and reducing dementia risk.

Who can apply?

Early Career Researchers (at eligible organisations), in collaboration with practitioners and people with lived experience, looking to translate dementia and brain health insights into practical, real-world tools and care models.

Full application guidelines, eligibility criteria, and key deadlines are outlined on the SPIN-D funding webpage.
