Co-sponsored by the UMMS Office of Research and the MICHR Education and Mentoring Group, this widely acclaimed seminar addresses practical and conceptual aspects of the proposal writing process (with emphasis on NIH applications). The presenter, David Morrison, Ph.D., is one of the most sought after presenters of workshops on writing NIH grant proposals. Participants will learn to prepare a competitive grant proposal by:

• incorporating knowledge of the peer review process in a persuasive research description
• formulating a focused research plan that incorporates well-formulated hypotheses, rationales, specific objectives, and long-range research goals
• developing and justifying a budget for the proposed research activities
• using existing resources at the University of Michigan in research proposal development
• avoiding many common grant writing mistakes.

This workshop is open to everyone interested in developing their NIH grant writing skills.  CME credit is available.
