Choosing Your NSF research Topic

•

1 gostou•559 visualizações

A good grant proposal always begins with a good idea, and like any scientist, you are full of good ideas. But the process of obtaining funding from NSF requires more than a good (or great) idea, more than a great project or a great team. This presentation will give you some tips on how to choose the best project topic for you and your team.

Even the most talented researcher knows that talk is cheap. While one-on-one, in person communication plays a critical role in securing major investments, in virtually every case commitments cannot be secured until a thoughtfully written proposal is presented. Seasoned fundraising and communications practitioner John Greenhoe will share tips and shortcuts for “kick-starting” your proposal writing and also provide templates that can be referred to every time a written proposal is needed.

10 NIH R01 Tips

Principal Investigator Leader

Communicating your work effectively is the cornerstone of success in science. Whether you are giving an in-house Works in Progress or an International Investigator Award talk, how you organize and present your information can influence how your audience perceives your work. Motivating and engaging a broad audience is difficult to accomplish with just data. To make your data rich presentations “come alive” you need to make sure you and your message, and not your PowerPoint slides, take center stage.

If you’re considering NIH’s R15 grant, there are some facts you should know before you apply — including what the grant is, who is eligible to receive it, and what reviewers look for in R15 applications. NIH designed the R15, or Academic Research Enhancement Award (AREA), to support biomedical and behavioral sciences research at small health professional schools. The grant aims to expose graduate and undergraduate students to scientific investigation and bolster the research environment at these smaller institutions.

Program Project, or P01, grants support multifaceted, long-term research programs with a major objective or theme. Program Project Grants involve the organized efforts of relatively large groups, often from multiple disciplines, wishing to collaborate by bringing together their know-how and resources. P01s are designed to meet the needs of projects whose end goal could not be achieved by investigators working independently. Additionally, the interactions and/or core facilities made possible by the P01 strengthen the individual projects of each of the members. Getting the seal of approval from reviewers for a P01 project requires a strong leader and masterful organization, among other key elements. To succeed, you must convince reviewers of the synergy and added value resulting from this type of collaboration. Integration of all the moving parts into the whole takes time, careful planning and unparalleled management skills. During this partnership-driven Webinar, your expert presenter will go over the basic structure of P01s, the importance of reading and following the directions, the strong focus on management, and the justification for cores for the P01. Selection and integration of the projects will be covered as will how to emphasize the synergy of the work to be done. 5 Key Take-Aways: 1. Basic structure of P01 applications 2. Management that sells the proposal 3. How to get people in the program to work together so that the plan can be integrated 4. How to justify the need for certain cores 5. How to find the right niche for a P01

The success of your live presentation doesn't just depend on your public speaking style, but also on how engaging the content being presented is. For scientists, data rich presentations pose a unique challenge because they are often perceived as dull and uninspiring with most of the content focusing strictly on results. The truth is that motivating and engaging a broad audience is difficult to accomplish with just data. For starters, to make your data rich presentations “come alive” you need to make sure you and your message, and not your PowerPoint slides, take center stage.

The process of submitting the manuscript and communicating with the journal will be reviewed. The factors considered by journal editors and reviewers in deciding to accept a manuscript will also be presented. Problems in submitting articles, the purpose and oddities of guidelines for authors, and how to respond to reviewers will all be described. Depending on the audience, differences between journals reporting basic and clinical research will be pointed out. This Webinar is based on Chapters 7 and 8 of your expert presenter’s book, How to Write, Publish, and Present in the Health Sciences. 5 Key Take-Aways: The importance of following the journal’s instructions for authors The criteria defining authorship, plagiarism, and duplicate publication Specific approaches to writing titles, abstracts, introductions, and discussions An understanding of the factors influencing a journal editor in accepting an article Awareness and location of reporting guidelines for evidence-based medicine

Secrets to Building a Stellar Research Program

Principal Investigator Leader

Training for a career in science begins with formal theoretical and practical instruction at an academic institution, often followed by advanced training and eventual employment also at an academic institution. This career path is one which has been historically taken by most scientists. In recent years, increasing numbers of academic scientists are choosing commercial laboratories to pursue their research careers. This shift in career path is driven to a large degree by the eroding of financial support for academic scientists, as evidenced by the downward trend in the funding rate for grants submitted to the NIH, NSF, and private foundations. Perhaps the greatest challenge for an academic scientist contemplating a move to a commercial laboratory is to adjust their thinking of ‘doing science for science sake’ to ‘doing science for commercializing a product’. This insightful Webinar will cover areas to be considered when making this career change, including the culture of the commercial laboratory working environment, career advancement, scientific recognition, mentoring, and availability of opportunities. 5 Key Take-Aways: Similarities and difference between academic and commercial laboratory working environments Suggestions on how to increase your autonomy and independence in conducting research at a commercial laboratory How to ‘hedge your bets’ so that deadlines and milestones are reached Balancing publishing and intellectual property generation The difference in costs between academic and commercial laboratory research Who Should Attend: Any academic PI, scientist, post-doc, graduate student, technician contemplating a move from a university-based research laboratory to a commercial biotechnology or pharmaceutical development laboratory.

Diversity training grants supported by the NIH are multi-million dollar grants that seek to increase the numbers of underrepresented minorities in the biomedical sciences. Specifically, these training grants aim to augment the presence of certain groups— namely minorities (such as African-Americans, American Indians, Alaska Natives, Hispanic/Latino Americans and U.S. Pacific Islanders) as well as individuals with disabilities in the biomedical work force. Leading a team of qualified individuals from various backgrounds and perspectives has proven to be an effective strategy towards the resolution of complex scientific dilemmas. These grants represent a great opportunity to make a difference and the NIH recognizes this. In 2011 alone over 39 million dollars were awarded across 160 approved R25 grant applications. And this is just one of the many diversity-driven grants currently available. During this diversity-spirited Webinar, your expert presenter will cover the full range of what these training grants entail. Special attention will be given to the R25 and T34 grants, but others will be discussed as well. Walk away with a clear understanding of their mechanism and focus, the basic structure of these grants as well as their collaborative nature.
