Securing research funding takes more than
just good
science – it requires that you
conceptualize and prepare
a highly competitive research proposal.
This workshop provides an overview of NIH
grant mechanisms and
discusses the role of the Center for
Scientific Review. Additional topics
include how to select the best institute
and study section for your science, what
are NIH criteria
for evaluation, what are recommended
timelines, the structure of an
application, and proven strategies for
success.
