She began as a contract grant writer in 2001, and left Tufts as<br \/>\ndirector of proposal development in 2010.<\/p>\n<p>This workshop has been modified so that more time is allowed for questions and discussion, and materials are included (e.g., how priority scores are calculated, what facilities and administrative, or indirect, costs are, how to analyze a critique in anticipation of resubmission and other topics). <\/p>\n<p>Dr. AtKisson also will discuss how proposal writing relates to building an academic career. <\/p>\n<p><i>The seminar will be held April 3 from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. Lunch is not provided. The postdoctoral education office will provide each participant with a &#8220;Successful NIH Proposal&#8221; workbook, a $75 value, free for future reference.
