This course is targeted to early career and novice researchers writing their first major competitive biomedical / health research grant proposals. After the course, you will be able to:
1) Understand and apply principles of persuasive writing that improve overall research grant writing;
2) Identify purposes of sentences, within and across paragraphs and pages, that improve comprehension for readers of scientific writing; and
3) Describe and demonstrate major sentence positions and their roles expected by readers, and steps to improve sentence organization.
We are faculty at a major research institution with proven experience training others to health sciences research career success. Scientific writing is a key skill. This course is part of a larger Specialization called Grant Writing for Health Researchers. Please consider taking the other two courses on (1) Grant proposal plans, sections, and resubmission, and (2) Biostatistics study design and analysis for grant proposals. Together, these have been a recipe for success for researchers at the University of Colorado and beyond. Upon completion, you will earn an e-badge to display your new skills. Please join us!
