Roadmap for Funded Research: An Introduction to Grant Writing for Young Researchers, Covering Challenges and Successes
30/09/2024 – 02/10/2024
/English below/
Rahastatud teadustöö teekaart: Sissejuhatus teadusgrantide kirjutamisse noortele teadlastele, käsitledes väljakutseid ja edulugusid
30.09–02.10.2024 (kolm täispäeva)
University of Tartu (täpne ruum selgub Septembris)
Sihtgrupiks on 20 noorteadlast ja doktorandi, kes on huvitatud akadeemilisest karjäärist ja teadusgrantide kirjutamisest.
Kursust juhendab Dr. Sabina Hirshfield, professor State University of New York ülikoolis. Dr. Hirshfield on rahvatervise teadlane ja riiklikult tunnustatud ekspert, kellel on rohkem kui kahe aastakümne pikkune kogemus grantide kirjutamises. Ta on teinud koostööd enam kui 30 riiklikult rahastatud HIV-ennetusuuringus ning on ligikaudu saja teadusartikli esi- või kaasautor. Igapäevases töös keskendub ta edukate teadusgrantide koostamisele. Lisaks on ta kolme toimetuskolleegiumi liige ning on olnud ad hoc retsensent 27-s HIV-i, nakkushaiguste ja rahvatervise valdkonna eelretsenseeritud ajakirjas. Dr. Hirshfieldi ekspertiis hõlmab ka uuenduslikku e-tervise käitumuslikku uurimistööd ning ta on olnud NIH-i (National Institutes of Health) grantide hindaja 8 aastat.
Arvestades, kui madal on grantide rahastamise edukuse määr, on äärmiselt oluline harida noori teadlasi, laiendades nende teadusuuringute oskusi, pakkudes näiteid grantide kirjutamise protsessi õnnestumistest ja ebaõnnestumistest ning süvendades teadmisi kvaliteetsete teadusgrantide kirjutamisest.
See kursus paneb teid mõtlema oma akadeemilise karjääri üle, mida on vaja, et akadeemilises maailmas edukalt läbi lüüa, ja kuidas rahastada oma teadustööd (grandiettepaneku kirjutamise sammud). Kursuse lõplik programm saadetakse septembris. Enne kursuse algust saadetakse teile lühike küsimustik, et teada saada, mida te kursuselt vajate, et tagada selle vastavus teie vajadustele.

30.09-2.10.2024 (three full-day course)
University of Tartu (specific room details will be announced in August/September)
The target group includes 20 young researchers and doctoral students who are interested in pursuing a career in academia and writing research grants.
Course will be taught by dr. Sabina Hirshfield who is a visiting Associate Professor in the Department of Medicine, STAR Program at SUNY Downstate Health Sciences University in Brooklyn, NY. As a U.S. public health scientist and a nationally recognized expert with more than two decades of grant writing experience, Dr. Hirshfield has collaborated on over 30 federally funded HIV prevention studies and maintains a strong publication record. She excels as a research-development strategist, specializing in crafting compelling research grants, a core and critical aspect of her academic role. Additionally, she serves on three editorial boards and has contributed as an ad hoc reviewer for 27 peer-reviewed journals in HIV, infectious diseases, and public health. Dr. Hirshfield’s expertise extends to innovative e-Health behavioral research, and she has served as an NIH grant reviewer for 8 years.
Considering how low the success rate is for grant funding, there is a critical need to educate junior scholars by broadening research skills, providing examples of successes and failures in the grant writing process, and expanding knowledge on writing high-quality research proposals.
This course will make you think about your academic career, what it takes to succeed in academia, and how to fund your research (steps on writing a grant proposal). The final course syllabus will be sent in August/September. Before the course starts, you’ll receive a short questionnaire to tell us what you need and expect from the course, so we can make sure it meets your needs.
