KAKENHI WRITING SEMINAR: Telling your research story effectively

Do you know the essence of making an effective proposal?

An effective proposal can attract evaluators’ interest with just a short glance. To do so, you need to structure your research story strategically to tell your story effectively to the reviewers. You need to know what the reviewers are looking for, and you need to effectively convince them in your proposal.

This English seminar will walk you through the KAKENHI and its evaluation system followed by practical writing advices from a winner of multiple KAKENHI applications. Best for researchers who are applying KAKENHI for the first time or who have had difficulties in the past applications. If you are planning to apply for KAKENHI this year, make sure to join us!
