Grant Wise


Grant Wise is a service that offers the opportunity for one-on-one feedback from experienced senior faculty (aka consultants) to junior faculty on grant writing. Interested faculty and trainees submit an online request for a consultation and are then paired with a senior faculty member from our list of volunteer consultants.

Requests for mentoring range from developing a timeline, reviewing Specific Aims, writing and editing the text, or responding to reviewer comments.

Mentors will be paired with mentees by a member of the CMDTS Steering Team based on field, expertise, and interests. We anticipate that each experienced faculty volunteer will be asked to advise one junior colleague in preparing a grant no more than once a year. We do not anticipate that mentors will become collaborators, although that option exists should both parties agree. The specific time commitment and expectations for each pair will be determined and agreed upon by the requester and consultant themselves following an initial meeting. We anticipate that consultation responsibilities will be limited to the duration of the project.

All grant types are welcome!
