The overall goal of this event is to highlight examples from international funding entities that are either already piloting or considering implementing different models to allocate research funds, with a particular emphasis on the partial randomisation process, and highlight the perspective of researchers on this topic.
The session will end with a roundtable discussion featuring the views from researchers hosted by Portuguese institutions on whether partial randomisation is an appropriate alternative to the current peer review process.
