assignment 2

Grant Proposal – Topic, Specific Aims and Bibliography

For this assignment, you will select a topic for your grant proposal (i.e., Final Project due in Week Six). Then you will write the Specific Aims section and create a preliminary bibliography. You will conduct a search in an University Library and/or on PubMedCentral  http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/ to locate at least 10 scholarly peer-reviewed articles that are relevant and that support your funding request.  Create your preliminary annotated bibliography and ensure that your resources are relevant and supportive of the Specific Aims as well as the Background and Significance sections of your grant proposal (the Background and Significance sections will be written in Week Three). See a sample annotated bibliography for assistance. 

Compose the Specific Aims section following the Grant Proposal Guidelines. See the Sample Grant Proposal Template as an example and use it as a template for your Grant Proposal. The assignment should be one page, excluding the bibliography.
