Sample R01 Applications and Summary Statements
Table of Contents
Introduction
Four investigators who wrote exceptional R01 applications in the shorter format—with a 12-page Research Strategy—have graciously agreed to let us post them online.
We are truly indebted to the investigators listed below, who have enabled us to deliver this widely anticipated resource to the research community.
We selected these applications as sound examples for new investigators as well as experienced investigators who are new to the shorter format. To highlight the excellent grantsmanship attributes, we have lightly annotated the Abstracts and Research Plans.
