How to Write a Successful Grant Application
Dr. Stephen Steadman
Mon Jan 24, 03-04:00pm, 26-414, Kolker Room
No enrollment limit, no advance sign up
Single session event
Many young researchers writing grant applications make serious errors despite having outstanding ideas that are well worth support by federal agencies. These include sending the proposal to the wrong program, missing deadlines for proposal submission, and incomplete or poorly written proposals. A description of the proposal process will be presented with information to help avoid these and other errors, with particular emphasis on funding in the physical sciences by the National Science Foundation and the U.S. Department of Energy Office of Science. Dr. Steadman has recently been a Program Director/Manager in both agencies. Please contact steadman@mit.edu by Friday, Jan. 21 so enough copies of handout materials will be available.

Tour of the MIT-Bates Electron Linear Accelerator Center
Dr. Stephen Steadman, Prof. Richard Milner
Tue Jan 25, 01-04:30pm, Van/bus to Middleton
Enrollment limited: advance sign up required (see contact below)
Signup by: 24-Jan-2005
Limited to 25 participants.
Single session event
The MIT Bates facility, supported by the U.S. Department of Energy Office of Science and located in Middleton, provides up to 1 GeV beams of electrons that are used like a giant microscope to probe inside the nucleus to learn how it is put together as a composite system of quarks formed into protons and neutrons. The facility will soon be used in new ways as an interdisciplinary center for research and development in accelerator science and technology. A brief general description of the facility and its research will be followed by a tour of the facility.
