Hey Prospective Panelists.We don’t know when panel applications will be going live. At this point in time we don’t feel it’s fair to put the extra burden of the content review policy on you as well as a reduced submission timeline so we will be removing the content review policy for 2025 and revisiting it in 2026. We are sorry for the false starts when it has come to panel submissions this year and will let you all know as soon as we know anything definitive. Thank you for your patience.
