Learn best practices for finding, vetting, and reading funding opportunities (FOAs) so that you can develop responsive research proposals. While the information you learn will be relevant to all funders, this presentation will emphasize NIH opportunities, specifically the SuRE R16 mechanism. 

How to Find Funding Opportunities
We'll cover strategies for finding suitable FOAs for your research, with an introduction to some of the different tools available, such as:

  • Grants.gov
  • Subscription funding databases
  • Mailing lists
  • NIH Guide to Grants & Contracts

How to Read a Funding Opportunity
We'll show you how to evaluate opportunities and interpret FOAs from the funder's perspective, with a focus on locating and understanding critical pieces of information, such as:

  • Deadlines and timelines
  • Funding amounts and restrictions
  • Eligibility considerations
  • Application instructions and evaluation criteria
