Submit Your Proposal

Required Materials

In order to be respectful of your time and ours, we ask for a concise “pre-proposal” that summarizes your thinking around a potential proposal. Interesting ideas that we believe have the potential to innovate the existing state of the art will quickly attract our attention. In those cases, we will contact you regarding next steps (those next steps will likely include some additional discussion to more fully understand your thinking, maybe a 30-minute discussion/presentation, a slightly more detailed proposal reflecting more specificity and depth of thought after our discussions, and some more complete terms and conditions). In order to get started, please prepare a summary document with the following concise materials (please see attached example):

Project Description

  • Submission Date
  • Project Name
  • Principal Investigator Name/Team member names
  • Written Description (less than 150 words)
  • Related work (brief review of the state of the current research)
  • Summary Experimental Plan (less than 100 words)
  • How this work is different/new (less than 150 words)
