Write for the Reviewer

A proposal is written with a small audience in mind - the reviewers. But what do you really know about their mindset?

7 Triggers

I cover some of the most commonly seen triggers that I have experienced myself while reviewing - and how to avoid them.

A framework and checklist

Next I provide a simple framework that helps you take those triggers into account, and a handout with a checklist to help you.

Oliver Bogler, PhD

I am a cancer scientist who has seen grants from all three angles - I successfully competed for fellowships, R01 and R21 grants and a SPORE during my active research years. I've reviewed for over 25 funding agencies including being a permanent member and chairing NIH study sections. I've led a team that oversaw a portfolio of over $200M in fellowship, career development, training and cancer research education grants for NCI. So I have gotten, reviewed and given grants - and I am here to share my knowledge with you to help you put your best application forward.
