This site contains documents and information for a fellowship writing workshop sponsored by the Elizabeth Weiser Caswell Diabetes Institute, first offered in Spring 2024. If you are interested in joining the CDI Learning Community, or participating in this or future workshops please email Dave Bridges.
The main goal is to support trainees in writing F31 applications, so these materials are based on PA-23-272.
We will host workshops every other week with a brief faculty talk and peer review of each other's documents
- Before the meeting: First complete the worksheet for each week, then using that information write drafts of the relevant sections. Upload these by Friday before the meeting.
- During the workshops: There will be a faculty-led mini-lecture on the topic, followed by peer review of each participant's documents (and food).
- After the workshops: Revise your documents based on the discussions.
