New ORDE Website, New Resources

I'm happy to announce that ORDE has re-worked our website and we're offering a clearer, better-organized home base to our faculty and research development community.  Along with this "new skin," we also are offering a variety of great resources, which I'll highlight below.

Faculty Seminars & Events
We're now listing all of our Spring seminars and Know Your Agency (KYA) Lunches, including those open for registration and those upcoming. They include:

• Grant-Writing Structure and Mechanics
• KYA Lunch: Institute for Education Sciences
• NSF CAREER Grant Planning
• NIH K Grant Planning

Additionally, if you miss a seminar, we are capturing and editing clips from our seminars and lunches and offering them in our archives.  All clips are around five minutes long. Check out our archives under the last tab here.

Funding
On our funding page, we're offering the following services and resources:

• Information on our fund searching services
• Our funding e-books (these currently list funding opportunities for pilot projects, sabbaticals, and for new investigators)
• Various funding source databases

Resources
We are offering and linking to a variety of high quality articles, worksheets, and other media to support you in the following categories:

• Sponsor information
• Proposal development
• Collaboration
• Research career development/strategies

ORDE Blog
Certainly, you're familiar with the ORDE blog, but on our website, we're also linking to other blogs that we like, particularly from some of the major funding sponsors. So, be sure to take a look at these other great blogs!

We think our new and improved website is more easily navigable to our research community, but you decide. Check it out and don't hesitate to make comments or send us email with other resources you're looking for or that you love that we should be including. Thanks and enjoy!
