• Contents: 1. Exploring Funding OptionsExplains the value of applying for grants such as academic recognition and career success – even a springboard to entrepreneurial ventures. The chapter addresses competition, sources of funding, the value of contracts vs. grants.2. Pursuing Federal SupportStarts by discussing 7 myths commonly associated with grantsmanship such as the folly of ingratiating or chasing hot topics, and offers advice on building a successful career using grants.3. Grant MechanismsStarting with research project grants, the chapter proceeds to explain the purpose of major grant mechanisms while showing how training, career development, planning and conference grants, and even small business grants contribute to preparing for almost any size and scope of research project.4. The Application ProcessThe chapter takes readers from initial idea, through project planning, developing a budget (including how to gauge if your costs are likely to be viewed to be too high or low, and how that affects review), and finishes with a discussion of the best strategies for communicating your project and submitting it for review.5. Application ContentThe chapter walks through the basic application elements using the NIH R01 format as a guide. The authors offer insights into what to include and what to exclude – often confusing to new applicants. The authors also underscore the value of letters of support, resource sharing to reflect outside support.6. Application ReviewFollows the flow of a typical NIH application from arrival at the funding institution, assignment to review and an administrative official, peer review, scoring (and questions about score meaning, ) and touches on other federal agency review processes.7. Funding Institution VettingTries to unlock the mystery of how final funding decisions are arrived at and the role various offices play in deciding funding. The authors end with a discussion of re-applying, progress reporting, and renewal applications that take readers back to the idea stage and submitting a new follow-on project.
