Grant officers are generally looking for work that could have an enduring influence. It should inherently lead to further study. 研究具有持续、深入进行的潜质，能起到抛砖引玉的作用 3.Applicants must effectively outline their ideas in the application, including a clear and direct hypothesis along with the expected results. 清晰、简明、扼要地阐述自己的科学思想，不要拐弯抹角 4. Applicants must state their research objective clearly and straight away. 清晰阐明研究的目的 5.It is wise to get editing and streamlining recommendations from as many senior colleagues as possible, both in and outside the research field, and to check the funder's website for advice. 甭管圈里、圈外的，多找几个人给你把把关 6.Applicants should make sure to request an appropriate amount of funding. 资金预算合理，不能太多也不能太少 应避免的低级错误： Avoid being too ambitious — don't propose a study that would take decades. Grant officers can tell when an applicant is overextending. 不要好高鹜远，脚踏实地更重要 Don't use abbreviations, acronyms, jargon or highly technical language. Reviewers who aren't familiar with your field will get annoyed and may think that you are trying to cover up for a lack of knowledge or ability to carry out the experiment. 本子要有一定的通俗性，不要使用简写或者太高深的专业词汇来突显自己的NB，遇到对你专业领域不熟的评审，你就死定了 Don't give short shrift to explaining why your proposal is important. Reviewers don't already know. Explain the study's impact, advances and potential. 在阐述研究的重要性时，千万不要吝惜笔墨 Make the application easy to read — don't cram it with text, use too-small fonts or miniaturize any figures. 不要只是文字，要图文并茂 祝俺和正在申请基金的同僚们2012心想事成。
