We meet with faculty members and fellows to learn about their current research and discuss funding needs. An extensive search is performed to acquire information for funding opportunities that match the needs of the faculty member or fellow. For more information, please email FSMFoundations@northwestern.edu.
We review and edit PowerPoint slides and conduct practice sessions to prepare faculty for in-person presentations to foundations and associations.
Our office provides assistance with editing and reviewing progress reports. Progress reports are an essential piece of communication between researchers and the foundation who funds them.
Site visits are organized to reinforce the relationships between researchers and foundations. Foundations can see first hand how their funding directly contributes to scientific breakthroughs.
