 Writing a sound, cogent, and impactful grant proposal begins with careful reading of an RFP. If that signals the start of a process that is often rushed, frenetic, and frustrating, then there is a better approach. Let's get realistic about the time and effort required to write a highly competitive grant application. This Forum addresses both practical and conceptual aspects important to managing grant proposal timelines and the impact they have on the writing process. Guest speakers include faculty who have worked on large and small grants, providing practical and workable suggestions and guidelines. Faculty and graduate students are welcome to attend and participate in this helpful and truly informative forum. Tuesday, October 20, 2015, 11:00am - 12:15pm, Westside A
