Developing your grant writing skills, in person

Thursday, 25 April 2024 to Wednesday, 01 May 2024, 10am - 4pm
This two-day in-person workshop will help you to understand how to: plan, develop, and structure your research proposal; turn your ideas into a well-written, strong and convincing proposal, and follow the Oxford grant submission process. It will be targeted at MSD researchers, especially early and mid-career researchers, who would like to develop their grant writing skills and who are planning to submit a grant or fellowship application. Please come prepared to discuss your project/fellowship ideas. Ideally, this should be on possible future work but if you are not quite at this stage, it could be on current work.
