- Information about the "Principal Investigator." That's me. It's simple and boring information, like mailing address and contact info. Nothing as interesting as, say, Bernard Pivot's questionnaire.
- A one page summary, where I have to promote both how good the science is and describe all the good things this will do for society ("broader impacts," they're called).
- The description itself. Up to 15 pages, single spaced. Again, it has to both encapsulate the science and say how great it will be for society at large.
- The references included in the description of the project.
- A so-called "biographical sketch," which is essentially a short curriculum vitae.
- A budget.
- A list of all the other funding you currently have. Easy for me, because I won't have any!
- A list of equipment and resources I have available to carry out the research.
Currently, I have a decent draft of everything but the budget. Ug. Drawing up that budget is turning out to be an uphill battle.
