I’ve reviewed a bunch of submissions for conferences and grant competitions this year and have some basic but important tips to share! 1/5 #AcademicTwitter #GeneChat
1) read the guidelines and make sure you include something on every section that is asked for. The guidelines usually correspond with sections on a rubric so missing a section will get you a 0 which could heavily impact your overall score. 2/5
2) write for your audience. This involves balancing how much info you choose to provide, especially in the background. Avoid jargon and limit acronyms- even with expert audiences, it makes it much easier to read 3/5
4) do everything you can to show alignment between your questions, methods, and outputs. Will your methods be effective at answering the question you’re asking? 4/5
5) get excited about your work! Talk about the benefits, impacts for stakeholders and end users, why your work is important and impactful. This translates through writing and may get reviewers excited about it too. 5/5
