Grant Library

The CCTS has partnered with successfully funded investigators from across its partner network to develop this compendium of best practice grant writing samples. Our goal is to share the wisdom of their award-winning experiences in communicating about research in support of both scientific excellence and discovery. We update this resource on a regular basis to keep it current with the latest sponsor requirements. Check back often to see the most recent examples of well-crafted grants. 

For those researchers interested in more support, consider applying to a CCTS/COERE Grant Writing Intensive Cohort (GRIT), which offer expert development guidance for a variety of grant mechanisms, including Ks and Rs. If you need further assistance with grant writing, or to submit a successful grant example to the library, contact CCTS Research Commons at This email address is being protected from spambots.
