Topic: Sharing successful grant applications


view this post on Zulip Amar Hadzihasanovic (May 29 2020 at 16:01):

I'm starting a topic to invite people, especially those who have stable jobs by now, to share some of their successful early-career grant applications, in particular those for “regular” schemes like EPSRC, Marie Curie, etc.

I think that many early career people here (including me) would benefit from more examples from our own field; I have certainly got good ideas (in terms of structure, etc. -- not scientific content, of course!) whenever somebody with more experience has been willing to share one of theirs.

Since I don't want to look like I'm just asking others and not contributing, here's my own application material that got me a JSPS postdoctoral fellowship before I completed my phd in 2017.
(This was quite brief compared to what is required for other grants -- just a 2-page project, CV, and a few lines on past and present research to fill into an online form.) jsps_application.zip

This is a great idea Amar! Thanks for starting this!

I'm currently in the process of writing up applicaitons for postdoctoral fellowships. So if anyone has any successful EPSRC or Marie Curie (specifically in the maths) applications they can share, I would be super grateful!

Here's another shot in the dark: does anyone have a successful NSERC postdoc fellowship they would be to share with me?
