Effort Report Impact Score

Elizabeth Matsui and Roger Peng occasionally do the Effort Report Impact Score, in which they discuss listener-submitted grants and offer suggestions. It’s not a competition and there are no rewards. We do it strictly for educational purposes when we believe that our audience could learn from our discussion of the grant. If you’d like us to consider your grant, here are some important rules:

  • Please submit one page. This can be Specific Aims page, a Project Summary, or an Objectives page (or equivalent). Anything longer will be deleted immediately.

  • A cover letter/email providing background/context is okay but not required.

  • Please submit a PDF file only. It just makes our lives easier.

  • We need your real name with the submission. For this, no pseudonyms are allowed.

With your submission, you acknowledge the following:

I am attaching this one page of my grant knowing that it may be discussed on The Effort Report podcast, and that this page could show up in full or in part online. I acknowledge that this isn’t a contest, sweepstakes or solicitation of employment. This is strictly for fun and education. Elizabeth Matsui and Roger Peng might criticize my writing, but I won’t hold that against them, because after all, I volunteered for this. Most importantly, I won’t claim that they stole my idea or something like that.
