NEW NIH R01 GRANT APPLICATION SPECIAL REPORT:
Research Plan: Make the Most of Your Significance, Innovation, Approach and Overall Impact
Probably the most important parts of your National Institutes of Health (NIH) R01 application are those in which you describe your proposed research. In particular, these are the Specific Aims and Research Strategy sections. They address your project’s Significance, Innovation and Approach, which are three of the five core grant criteria that reviewers use to score your application. As a matter of fact, these sections are the ones you will spend most of your writing time on.
At the same time, these sections will heavily influence your application’s Overall Impact score. Unfortunately, there is no template for incorporating overall impact into your application, and there is no section called “Overall Impact” — or even an incentive to simply add a paragraph labeled as such.
Consequently, this report examines how you can use the Specific Aims and Research Strategy to perform double-duty:
- Fulfill the Significance, Innovation and Approach criteria
- Support the Overall Impact of your research
Must-have, step-by-step expert guidance includes:
- Avoid the dreaded “overly ambitious” reviewers’ critique with advice from the experts
- Are your Specific Aims “sequential” or “parallel”? 1 Way to know for sure
- One section holds the key to completing the rest of your application. Learn the easiest place to start
- How to make the argument that your research is “translational” — Key language every grant-writer should know
- Effectively craft your Innovation section: Here’s how
- Reviewers focus specifically on your Approach — Make sure yours passes muster
- How much preliminary data is really necessary? Know where to draw the line
PLUS! This 53-pg special report includes sample language from NIH funded applications specifically focused on these sections!
