1 Research Proposal Requirements and Networking Workshop ESTEC, Noordwijk, 13 September 2004

2 Summary Table Submissions: Submission of NOIs + Proposal -> Electronically Use standards forms downloaded from www.spaceflight.esa.int/users/lifephys www.spaceflight.esa.int/users/lifephys Proposal 12 Nov: Electronic to lifephys@esa.int + paper originallifephys@esa.int Proposal content: Will be done in detail this afternoon

3 How to write a good proposal … 1 A set of basic components ……. You need to provide as a minimum - a short abstract - a hypothesis

4 How to write a good proposal … 1 A set of basic components ……. You need to provide as a minimum - a short abstract - a hypothesis - a short, condensed description of the scientific background and some references from any relevant ground-based experiments you or others have performed – HERE YOU DEFEND YOUR CASE!

5 How to write a good proposal … 1 A set of basic components ……. You need to provide as a minimum - a short abstract - a hypothesis - a short, condensed description of the scientific background and some references from any relevant ground-based experiments you or others have performed - a definition of the objectives and expected outcome

7 How to write a good proposal … 1 A set of basic components ……. You need to provide as a minimum - a short abstract - a hypothesis - a short, condensed description of the scientific background and some references from any relevant ground-based experiments you or others have performed - a definition of the objectives and expected outcome - an accurate description of the equipment in question and its use - an experimental procedure to be performed

8 How to write a good proposal … 1 A set of basic components ……. You need to provide as a minimum - a short abstract - a hypothesis - a short, condensed description of the scientific background and some references from any relevant ground-based experiments you or others have performed - a definition of the objectives and expected outcome - an accurate description of the equipment in question - an experimental procedure to be performed - Life Sciences (Justify the) number of test subjects and their qualification and what they must be trained in (provide basic statistics arguments)

9 How to write a good proposal … 2 Be consistent ………

10 How to write a good proposal … 2 Be consistent ……… The need for microgravity is based in experience from ground based experiment background

11 How to write a good proposal … 2 Be consistent ……… The need for microgravity is based in experience from ground based experiment background Make sure you have a plan and describe the plan

12 How to write a good proposal … 2 Be consistent ……… The need for microgravity is based in experience from ground based experiment background Make sure you have a plan and describe the plan Build up the proposal logically …

13 How to write a good proposal … 2 Be consistent ……… The need for microgravity is based in experience from ground based experiment background Make sure you have a plan and describe the plan Build us the proposal logically … Be clear … follow basic rules for a good and understandable document (order, pagination, font, systematics, etc.)

14 How to write a good proposal … 2 Be consistent ……… The need for microgravity is based in experience from ground based experiment background Make sure you have a plan and describe the plan Build us the proposal logically … Be clear … follow basic rules for a good and understandable document (order, pagination, font, systematics, etc.) References – use and usefulness – MAKE SURE TO KNOW YOUR REFERENCES!

15 How to write a good proposal … 2 Be consistent ……… The need for microgravity is based in experience from ground based experiment background Make sure you have a plan and describe the plan Build us the proposal logically … Be clear … follow basic rules for a good and understandable document (order, pagination, font, systematics, etc.) References – use and usefulness Team members: Do only identify people that are NEEDED for the science you want to do …

18 How to write a good proposal … 3 Make sure you are doing compelling science !

19 How to write a good proposal … 3 Make sure you are doing compelling science ! -this you only know if you are completely current re. what has been done already – this peers demand !

20 How to write a good proposal … 3 Make sure you are doing compelling science ! -this you only know if you are completely current re. what has been done already – this peers demand ! -You want to contribute to progress, not only to ‘status-quo’

21 How to write a good proposal … 3 Make sure you are doing compelling science ! -this you only know if you are completely current re. what has been done already – this peers demand ! -You want to contribute to progress, not only to ‘status-quo’ -Do science for the field you are in, not only for yourself and your funding …..
