Proposal Training: How to Win Funding from the National Institutes of Health

This workshop on the NIH will cover the agency’s organization, mission, funding mechanisms, priorities, and a step-by-step discussion of how to write a proposal to NIH. (This seminar is aimed at faculty who are relatively new to NIH.)

Presenter Lucy Deckard established her consulting firm, Academic Research Funding Strategies, LLC in 2010. She works with universities and faculty across the U.S., helping them develop the skills to compete successfully for research funding. She has extensive experience helping to prepare proposals to a wide range of funders, including NSF, NIH, DoD, DARPA, DOE, DoED, NASA, and USDA.

The online workshop will be conducted on Zoom. Many of the exercises will involve breakout rooms, and faculty will be asked to turn on their cameras if possible. The workshop will be recorded, with the exception of the exercises in the breakout room.

Participants will be eligible for one of a limited number of 45-minute individual consultation slots with Lucy Deckard following the workshop. Information on this opportunity will be sent to registrants before the presentation date.
