Program Office, in association with
the National Institutes of Health (NIH),
will offer grant
seminar workshops in the Career
Resources Center at the Experimental
Biology 2008 Annual Meeting. Dr. Peter Preusch of NIGMS, NIH and Dr.
Anthony M. Coelho, Jr., Review
Policy Officer at NIH, will chair
the workshops. EB 2008 registration
is required to participate in the
seminars.
Peer Review of NIH Grants–Part I
This workshop is focused on
providing information on how to
understand the peer review process,
which is essential to competing
successfully for funding. The
workshops also provide an overview
of how scientific peer review is
carried out at NIH.
Grant Writing for Success–Part II
This workshop provides an
introduction to factors that
contribute to applications that
succeed in obtaining research
funding. This presentation is
focused on the fundamental
principles of successful grant
writing, the most common reasons
that grant applications fail, how to
make an application “reviewer
friendly”, how to meet the needs of
the reviewers and the funding
agency, how to avoid the need for
resubmission, and tips and
strategies for resubmitting,
including what should and what
should not be done if resubmission
becomes necessary.
NIH Mock Study Section–Part III
This workshop provides participants
with an overview of the working
dynamics of peer review at NIH.
Participants will see the peer
review process in action, followed
by a question-and-answer period.
NIH K Awards
This presentation will focus on the NIH's new K99/00 Pathways to Independence Award (for postdoctoral scientists) and the K08 Mentored Clinical Scientist Development Award (for individuals with a health professional doctoral degree committed to a career in laboratory or field-based research.) The interactive discussion will give attendees an opportunity to ask questions of and obtain insight from an NIH representative.
IMPORTANT: Handouts and
resource materials will be provided
on-site.
