This webinar is an excellent opportunity to get an inside look at the priorities of the current administration and the various federal agencies, as we seek to increase Tufts' competitiveness in a difficult funding environment. It is not necessary to view all sessions – we encourage faculty to strategically choose which sessions are most applicable to their research and funding goals.
If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to contact the Office of Proposal Development at proposaldevelopment tufts edu.
Best regards,
Amy Gantt
Director, Office of Proposal Development
