SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill includes references (resource) and assets (resource) components.

What problem does it solve?

Write competitive research proposals across NSF, NIH, DOE, DARPA, NSTC, and other agencies by providing agency-specific formats, review criteria, and submission requirements, including budgeting, broader impacts, and compliance.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Agency-specific guidance with mission priorities, review criteria, and submission processes for NSF, NIH, DOE, DARPA, NSTC.
  • Templates and components: NSF project summary, NIH Specific Aims, NIH budget justification, and agency-specific sections, along with resubmission guidance.
  • Comprehensive reference materials and best practices: agency guidelines, review criteria, and strategic guidance for integration and compliance.
  • Workflow guidance for multi-agency proposals and cross-agency alignment, including resubmission strategies and institutional commitments.

Quick Start

Draft an NIH Specific Aims page for a cancer biology project and tailor it to NSF project description guidelines.

Frequently Asked Questions about research-grants

High-intent search queries and answers about installing and using this skill.

FAQPage Schema
How do I write an NIH Specific Aims page that aligns with agency review criteria?

To write an NIH Specific Aims page, use structured grant-writing templates tailored to NIH review criteria, ensuring your specific aims clearly state hypotheses, objectives, and expected outcomes. This Skill generates agency-specific formats and components like the Specific Aims page to meet NIH submission requirements.

What is the best way to structure an NSF project summary for broader impacts?

Structuring an NSF project summary requires distinct sections for overview, intellectual merit, and broader impacts. This Skill provides NSF-specific templates and guidelines to properly format the project description and integrate broader impacts into your research proposal.

How do I prepare a budget justification for a DARPA or NSTC proposal?

Preparing a budget justification for DARPA or NSTC involves detailing proposed costs and explaining how they align with agency mission priorities. This Skill generates budget justification templates and compliance guidelines specific to DARPA, NSTC, and other major funding agencies.

Can I use this to draft a resubmission strategy for a rejected DOE grant application?

Yes, you can draft a resubmission strategy for a rejected DOE grant application. This Skill provides workflow guidance for resubmissions, offering best practices and strategic alignment to address reviewer critiques and improve your proposal's competitiveness.

Does multi-agency grant writing require different templates for NSF and NIH submissions?

Multi-agency grant writing requires different templates for NSF and NIH submissions due to distinct mission priorities and review criteria. This Skill applies agency-specific formats across NSF, NIH, DOE, DARPA, and NSTC, generating tailored components for cross-agency alignment.

What are the limitations of using standardized templates for DOE or DARPA research proposals?

Standardized templates for DOE or DARPA research proposals require careful alignment with specific solicitation instructions beyond base formats. This Skill provides reference materials and compliance guidelines to mitigate these limitations, ensuring proposals meet strict agency-specific submission requirements.
