The Society for Immunotherapy of Cancer (SITC) hosted the "Grant Writing Workshop: The study section black box: A look inside the grant review process" during the SITC 2019 Annual Meeting on November 7, 2019. Available here are the presentation slides and video from "Session II: You Submitted Your Grant: Now What Happens?"

Program Summary

This two-hour program featured two sessions. The first session opened with an overview of the grant submission process, briefly outlining funding opportunities and how to navigate those. Session one also addressed critical points of government and private sector grant submissions. The second session consisted of a “mini-study section,” which allowed attendees to experience how a study section evaluates a grant proposal, which assisted attendees to identify points that determine the success or failure of a grant proposal and help them optimize the process of grant re-submission.
