KAKENHI WRITING SEMINAR – for early-stage researchers

What Makes an Effective Grant Proposal?

An effective proposal allows reviewer to grasp your research at a glance. To do so, you need to structure your research story to tell your story effectively to the reviewers. You need to know what the reviewers are looking for, and you need to effectively incorporate reviewer’s point of view in your research story to convince the reviewers.

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!
