It doesn't have to be this way. The Grant Writing Guide (publisher: Princeton University Press) is an essential handbook for writing research grants, providing actionable strategies for professionals in every phase of their careers, from PhD students to seasoned researchers.

Motivation

I believe scholars deserve support for incredible ideas. Luck of the draw in training shouldn't determine who gets funded. We need to hear and fund society's best ideas. I also believe fear of failure can keep us from aiming for big goals. Take the leap and "try imperfectly." And finally, I believe the time to do work that matters is now.

I'm an associate professor at Boston College and the author of The Grant Writing Guide (publisher: Princeton University Press). I study child mental health, and I have published over 70 peer reviewed articles on this topic. My research as a Principal Investigator has been funded by the National Science Foundation, the National Institute of Mental Health, and the Gulf Research Program of the National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine, among others. These efforts have been recognized with awards from the American Psychological Association and the American Psychological Foundation.
