Grant Sprint
Are you looking for a fresh approach to grant writing with your research team? This two-day grant sprint approach, developed by faculty from the University of Michigan, is an intensive period of 4-hour blocks working with your collaborators that will leave you with an almost complete proposal by the end.
Collaborating with your research team and collaborators to write a grant proposal can be great for team building and to open constructive discussions to identify the strengths and limitations of your proposal.
Who is involved?
A team of approximately 5-10 members, that can include:
- the Principal Investigator,
- co-investigators/ collaborators,
- grant writers,
- quantitative experts,
- students/fellows, and
- a facilitator.
