NIH Workshop for faculty, residents, fellows and postdocs, Tuesday, May 20, 2008, please register

Writing Successful NIH Research Grant Proposals

A Training Class for EVMS and ODU Faculty, Post-Docs, Fellows, and
Residents

Tuesday May 20, 2008
8 am – 5 pm (lunch provided)
Hofheimer Auditorium, EVMS

Pre-registration by May 8 required. Training sessions open to EVMS and ODU
personnel at no cost. Parking at EVMS is $8 per day.

Interested in learning how to write a grant proposal with an improved
chance of being funded? On May 20 EVMS and ODU will jointly present a
day-long session on grant-writing. The focus will be on NIH grants,
including translational and other research involving collaboration
between clinicians and basic scientists. The principles taught will also
be helpful for other research grants.

The material covered will be similar to the successful ODU/EVMS
grantwriting class presented at ODU in October 2006, but with more clinical
and behavioral emphasis. Course faculty are recipients of NIH or other
federal grants, and have served as reviewers on NIH study sections or
reviewed proposals for other agencies.

Cell Biology
