Description: For all the virtues of the research peer review system, there is a well-recognized tendency of the system to gravitate to "safe science" in times of austerity. Creative research tends to struggle to receive grant support. This session will discuss how creativity and innovation can be identified, promoted and funded in a time of austerity.
