Grant Writing

This book is meant to be a quick guide that every researcher and grant writer can keep at hand, especially at the time to start writing a grant proposal. It is based on the experience acquired by providing consulting support to more than three hundred researchers across more than 25 countries worldwide.
It has been kept concise and straight to the point, intending to focus on the main points that can help researchers to design their project and successfully pitch it to funding bodies.
This guide helps defining, understanding and structuring a research project. Even though this book is meant at guiding the writing of successful grant proposals for research projects, the tips provided will also be very useful to researchers to design their research projects, even if they do not aim to submit a grant proposal.
It is assumed that the success of a grant proposal does not only depend on the structure of the project, but also on its innovative contents and objectives. For this reason, we dedicate a complete volume on strategy building.
