Launch to R Grant Writing Workshop
The Launch to R Grant-Writing Workshop offers a structured, step-by-step path to developing a competitive NIH R01 grant, culminating in a Mock Study Section.
The Launch to R Grant-Writing Workshop from the Clinical and Translational Science Institute provides a structured, interactive experience for faculty to facilitate preparation of an initial R01 grant. Over the course of the workshop, participants will write their grant, section by section, and receive peer and expert review on each part.
The program is open to anyone who is ready to write an NIH R01 grant and will accept up to eight applicants. The program concludes with a Mock Study Section.
The workshop will meet in person from 2 to 4:30 PM at the CTSI in Prior Hall every two weeks from September 2 to December 16.
