The following are written comments about the seminar
(on file):
•
 Excellent presentation-extremely helpful.
•
 This is the third time attending this seminar with an R01 in between awarded in 2004. I cannot get enough of this seminar.
•
 This was a very well organized and useful seminar, look forward to the next.
•
 Great slides and handout. I loved the pearls of wisdom. Great also to have examples of what good writing is. It is helpful to know how to phrase things.
•
 [The presenter] was especially helpful.
•
 Having a structure like this demystifies the process. This was by far the most valuable workshop I’ve attended--everything was immediately applicable.
•
 Should be required for all veterinary grad student programs.
•
 This seminar is one of the most useful seminars that I have attended. It is great for young fellow and junior faculty.
• Great seminar!
• As a fourth year academic, this was one of the most informative and helpful pieces of professional development I have experienced.
• Extremely well presented--recommend having them back again.
• The seminar was excellent. I went from knowing nothing about grant writing to feeling prepared to tackle my first application. The recommendations were realistic and to-the-point. No time was wasted with extras, less important information-each hour was packed with useful details.
• Some of the best time spent for career development.
• The seminar was great as well as the speakers.
• [The speaker] did a terrific job as a presenter and with the material. Nice balance of theory/concept and tips. Examples are good – I recommend more!

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!”
