The "Write Your Big Idea" workshop is designed to help researchers effectively communicate their research ideas to secure grant funding. In this workshop, we will guide participants through a series of focused writing activities, aimed at crafting a clear, concise, and impactful research blurb that captures the attention of potential funders. Additionally, the content generated through this workshop can be transformed into correspondence with program officers and provides the scaffold for a compelling white paper. This workshop is ideal for researchers looking to refine their communication skills and improve their chances of obtaining grant support.
