ORS/OREF Grant Writing Workshop  

Location: San Diego Marriott Hotel & Marina
Room: Marina Ballroom D (Level 3)

There is a $75.00 fee per person which includes continental breakfast, lunch and syllabus.

The ORS Mentoring Committee is pleased to present the 3rd Annual Grant Writing Workshop at the ORS Annual Meeting in San Diego. The course is designed for new investigators in the process of writing their first grant proposals, and will include a mock study section so that investigators can see what is involved in NIH peer review. Attendees are encouraged to submit a grant to the ORS office. Two grants, one initial and one revised, will be chosen for review during the mock study section. The faculty have all been members of the NIH study section, and have participated in the ORS/OREF/AAOS sponsored Grant Writing Workshop held annually each Spring.

The workshop will include introductory talks from NIAMS representatives, and discussions of each of the components of a R01 proposal from both a basic science and clinical research viewpoint. A mock study section will take place during lunch with faculty providing reviews. This will be followed by discussions of interpreting pink sheets, and what to do when you get your first grant.
