Fall 2019 ORDE Seminar Videos

Happy New Year!

I thought it appropriate by starting the new year with a look back at some of our seminars from the fall. Below are the descriptions and links to the edited videos on our vimeo site!

AMC: Grant Writing Symposium

Faculty Experts: Jennifer Kemp, Director, Research Office, Department of Medicine, School of Medicine; Andrew Thorburn, Chair, Department of Pharmacology, School of Medicine; Adit Ginde, Professor and Vice Chair for Research, Department of Emergency Medicine, School of Medicine

Grant writing is an essential skill for a successful and productive researcher, but one that takes work and experience to hone. Join us for our 2019 Grant Writing Symposium and hear from seasoned researchers and grant writers on how to work with Program Officers, write your Specific Aims, and get insights about the review process and what reviewers are looking for in your grant. You’ll leave with best practices in grant writing, as well as resources to help you start your academic year off on the right foot!

Denver: Know YourAgency Lunch: Department of Education

Faculty Experts: Ritu Chopra, Executive Director, The Paraprofessional Research and Resource Center & Project Director, NxtGEN Teachers, Teacher Quality Partnerships Project; Barbara Seidl, Associate Dean of Teacher Education and Undergraduate Experiences, School of Education and Human Development

In the Know Your Agency Lunches, we feature a specific agency and ask either an investigator funded by the agency or an agency insider to give an overview of the agency and offer some of the nuances that might not be readily available on the website or program announcement. These lunches also offer an opportunity for investigators interested in applying to the agency the chance to ask questions of someone more experienced with the agency.

AMC: Know YourAgency Lunch: DOD

Faculty Experts: Vikhyat Bebarta, Professor of Emergency Medicine; J. David Beckham, Associate Professor of Medicine, Neurology, & Immunology/Microbiology; Rosemary Rochford, Professor of Immunology & Microbiology; Travis Taylor, Associate, Strategic Marketing Innovations (SMI), Inc.; David Visi, Associate, SMI, Inc.

In partnership with the CU Office of Government Relations, in this Know Your Agency Lunch, we will hear from Drs. Travis Taylor and David Visi from SMI, Inc. on how to approach the Department of Defense (DoD) and apply for funding. We will then hear from a panel of faculty who have been successfully funded by the DoD to learn more about the unique aspects of this funder.

Denver: Revising and Resubmitting your Grant Proposal

Faculty Experts: Naomi Nishi, Associate Director, ORDE; Jean Scandlyn, Clinical Associate Professor, Health and Behavioral Sciences and Anthropology

Few things are as disappointing as not getting your grant proposal funded, but it’s important to remember that all of the most funded researchers have had many proposals declined. What makes them successful, though, is that they didn’t let those rejections stop them. They listened to their reviewers, worked with their Program Officer, went back to the drawing board, and resubmitted a better proposal. Join us for this seminar where a faculty expert will discuss the resubmission process and how to be successful through it. 

Happy viewing, and as we look forward to what 2020 has in store, don't forget to register for our Spring Seminars!
