Description
Most researchers find it easier to talk about their research than themselves but grant and fellowship applications often require a strong personal statement. During this session, they will examine examples of the genre and share strategies for crafting an effective personal statement that supports your research proposal. Whether you’re applying for a standard research grant, a fellowship, or other postdoc opportunities, the best practices they cover will help you stand out.
