This is part one of a two-part webinar series designed to help researchers in all stages of their career find funding sources. This workshop series offers approaches to strategy, selection, and technical skills in writing grants for scientists and entrepreneurs. The series will cover how to write grant applications for NIH, foundations, and big Pharma. A successful grant application contains both high quality scientific aims and objectives and a well written succinct grant application. Scientists from all stages in their career from training to leading a start-up business should be aware that they will likely need more than one type of grant during an academic or business career. This 2-part WEAVR series is led by experts who have successfully obtained grants and serve on review panels at federal and private grant agencies in ocular research.

Part 1 discusses general strategic approaches on developing a strong grant application.
