Bad news on the New Investigator Application

Jun 30, 2015 05:28

I didn't get the new Investigator Award, but I've got some good notes for improving my next application.  Overall, they didn't identify a lot of weaknesses. One of the issues they did flag is annoying, because there was a confusing part of the application and I emailed CIHR for clarification, did exactly what they told me to do, and then lost points for doing so.  Grrr.

I'll have a better shot in the next competititon. I've got a head-start on writing (since I can revise what I have), I have comments to work with, I'll have advanced in my career, and they have special calls for Indigenous investigators.

i have to figure out how to express my supervisory work better, and find more opportunities to do that kind of work.

Now I'm sitting, fingers crossed, to hear back about the Dal application.

grants, work
