Build a stronger scientific plan before the final draft

You have identified a funding opportunity and intend to write the application, but need an independent scientific partner to strengthen the plan, connect evidence to the proposed work, and identify gaps before the final draft.

• An annotated aims structure, with feedback on objectives and the logic connecting the proposed work
• Prioritized recommendations on scientific rationale, evidence, experimental design, milestones, and risks
• Feedback on one working scientific draft for coherence, positioning, and issues requiring revision
• Two strategy meetings and a concise summary of agreed priorities and next steps

Share the funding opportunity, available evidence, current aims or outline, and submission timeline. I agree the materials and review schedule with you, discuss the scientific plan, and provide feedback as your team develops the application.

This engagement covers one scientific project and one funding opportunity. The sections and length of the working draft are agreed before work begins. Your team writes the application; full proposal drafting and submission administration are outside scope. A comprehensive final pre-submission review is a separate service. This work can also be included within an agreed advisory work plan. Funding is not guaranteed.
