General comments
? A good idea is critical, but not enough. Roughly 80% of proposals submitted to NIH are reasonably good ideas that will yield important knowledge.
? Excellent grant writers often claim they can get any reasonable idea funded.
? A poorly written grant will never be funded, even if it's the best idea in the world.

General Comments
There is a simple secret to writing successful grants that all the best grant writers follow, . . .
but the vast majority of applicants do not.
It's the 1st page of the grant: The Specific Aims

There's lots of excellent science out there.
What makes for an excellent grant?
? A compelling question ? Clarity of thought and expression ? A strong, testable hypothesis ? Logical steps (aims) to answer the question ? Rigorous experiments to answer the
question
