Grant Writing
Course Description. This course is designed to teach students principles of grant writing and introduce funding
opportunities and application procedures for major US grant agencies in the life sciences. Several faculty will participate
who are familiar with different funding agencies. Students will each write an independent grant proposal that will be
peer-reviewed by a mock panel composed of both student and faculty reviewers. A revised version will be due at the end of
the semester that addresses panel comments. We will conduct panel reviews to give students timely feedback if they are
planning to submit a DDIG in the fall.
This course is taught by a rotating panel of instructors, and will be coordinated by Lynn Adler or Ben Normark
in alternate falls.
