Hi, I would like to suggest that it would be useful if users could reapply for database/model access after rejection. It seems that the last time I applied, I did not set up my academic email address as my primary email, which led to my application being rejected. After linking my .edu email to the account, my access application for another model managed by the same admin was accepted. However, there seems to be no way to reapply for the rejected one. Can you please fix this?

Although it is a very primitive method, if you cannot cancel it yourself, the most reliable way is to directly contact the model author in the discussion section.
If it is a mistake in the email, that should be enough.😀
