Description | The ability to write effective grant proposals is key to a successful academic career, though it is often expected that academics will pick up the necessary skills in real time without any formal teaching – causing writing to be often stressful and inefficient. The goal of this workshop is to equip researchers with the skills necessary to compose compelling grant proposals as well as provide key information to include and pitfalls to avoid. A good grasp of these basics of proposal composition will help academics save time and energy when they sit down to write.
This workshop will teach the basics of composing a scientific grant proposal, covering each key proposal section: • Background; • Proposed work;
For each section, we will review in depth: • The points and key parts to include in each section;
At the end of the workshop participants will be able to: • Effectively organize a grant proposal.
*We don't have the time in a short-format workshop to compose full drafts, but participants will leave the workshop knowing exactly how to do it.
