We will study how exposure to different socioeconomic and ethnic groups in different domains of life—neighborhoods, schools, and workplaces—shapes segregation and inequality over the life course and across generations.

It looks very interesting. Looking forward to reading it!

lol! I should've specified! This is — luckily — a stronger currency, though it also comes with an extra zero. Thank you! :)

Getting funding is a huge relief, but also a reminder of the hidden costs behind every grant application. We spend so much time and energy on proposals that may never be supported. For many early-career researchers, this means less time actually doing the research that funding is meant to enable.

It took us two years and six versions (submitted to different funders) to get this project funded. Even when you believe your work is worth supporting, success feels a bit random, though gratifying when it finally comes through. A mix of luck, persistence, and privilege.
