The following are written comments about the seminar
(on file):
•
 Great speaker, very engaging.
•
 Program was very informative. Presenter was effective and should be commended for being able to talk for such long periods and hold the attention of the attendees.
•
 USA Today: June 25, 2004. Speaker takes a humorous approach to the arduous task of grant writing. Keep it honest, simple and follow direction.
•
 Definitely should be part of annual program.
•
 This is one of the best lectures I have attended. He was clear, entertaining and went to the point. No wonder his grants get funded!
•
 Very informative. Changed my mind about how effective grant proposals are written.
•
 Thank you, for a great seminar. Now, I am very excited about writing my first grant.
•
 Excellent seminar. Should be provided to all new investigators to the university.
• Terrific! Diagrammatic slides are excellent.
• I thought this was a great program and extremely worthwhile.
• The seminar was excellent. The speaker was extremely effective and dynamic and kept our attention even given the time constraints.
• Very, very important topic for academic setting. Speaker was excellent.
• I have served twice as an NIH reviewer, but have not yet written an NIH grant. I’m working on a K Award application and the detail of this presentation will be invaluable.
• The seminar overall was outstanding and extraordinarily useful—wish I’d taken it years ago.
• I can’t express how outstanding this program was. It is just the type of “nuts and bolts” education our research community needs. As someone who develops educational research programs, I would highly endorse your seminar to other institutions!
• Who knew a workshop on grant writing could be so informative and so entertaining.
• Excellent. It takes a genius to present this material in a funny, engaging, stimulating way. [The speaker] is a genius!
• Not only was [the speaker] extremely knowledgeable, he was funny and entertaining. Did not expect such an educational and compelling seminar!
• This should absolutely be part of a faculty/student development program.
• Excellent presenter! Very enthusiastic, and energetic. Wonderful, concise, organized way of presenting a difficult topic.
• That’s what I need! Great!.
• These seminars should be offered more often. I wish I had known about these techniques years ago. A wonderful seminar!

Testimonials


“[The presenter] had a powerful, yet friendly presentation style that is not only hugely informative, but also reassuring that obtaining funding is feasible. His willingness to answer questions at the end of the session on broader topics than just grant writing was a pleasant and appreciated boon to the seminar.”
Wayne State University

“One of the most dynamic and informative seminars I've attended at NIH. Hopefully there can be an increase in similar seminars in the future to accommodate all those who wish to attend. I would highly recommend this seminar to all.”
National Institutes of Health

“This has been fabulous! It's definitely been worth the time. The timing has been good for me, too, as I'm just now writing my full PhD proposal. I will be editing it this weekend with [the presenter's] tips and recommendations in mind!”
