Description
2nd Edition
by Lisa Chasan-Taber (Author)
Competition for research funds in
epidemiology, preventive medicine and biostatistics is highly
competitive and at the same time, the grant application and review
process at such agencies at the National Institutes of Health (NIH) has
undergone substantial revisions. Writing Grant Proposals in
Epidemiology, Preventive Medicine, and Biostatistics, Second Edition
targets effective grant proposal writing in this highly competitive and
evolving environment.
Covering all aspects of the proposal writing process, the updated second edition: -Includes
new chapters on Fellowship Grants and Career Development Awards
designed for graduate students, postdoctoral fellows, and early-career
faculty -Provides strategies to highlight the "overall impact" of the
grant, one of the most important aspects determining NIH funding in a
new chapter on Significance and Innovation -Provides step-by-step
guidelines for grant structure and style alongside broader strategies
for developing a research funding portfolio -Explains how to avoid common errors and pitfalls, supplying critical dos and don'ts that aid in writing solid grant proposals -Illustrates key concepts with extensive examples from successfully funded proposals
Written by an established NIH reviewer
with inside knowledge and an impressive track record of funding, Writing
Grant Proposals in Epidemiology, Preventive Medicine, and
Biostatistics, Second Edition is an essential cookbook of the
appropriate ingredients needed to construct a winning grant proposal.
The text is not only relevant for early-stage investigators including
graduate students, medical students/residents, and postdoctoral fellows,
but also valuable for more experienced faculty, clinicians,
epidemiologists, and other health professionals who cannot seem to break
the barrier to obtain NIH-funded research.
