One of the most important skills in science is the ability to successfully apply for and acquire funding, whether in a postdoctoral or principle investigator position. Sources of funding are often difficult to identify, and postdocs may find themselves feeling under-equipped in their search and acquisition of grant support. This session will explore approaches for seeking funding, how to tailor applications for foundation and corporate grants, best practices in government grant applications (i.e NIH), and how to write an application that seems beneficial to potential funding partners- “how do I make my application sound fundable?” We invite a diversity of panelists with experience in government, foundation and corporate granting schemes to share their expertise.
