I am on the post-doc job market for positions starting in 2023! I am hoping to continue developing skills in the analysis of large-scale neural data - particularly applied to issues in addiction - while further developing skills in theoretical and computational neuroscience. 1/2

This is excellent advice. The specific aims page is probably the most important part of your grant application. Get a solid draft of it together BEFORE you start writing the research plan, revise it often, and when you’re really happy with it, your grant is probably done.
Greybeard #NIH grant reviewer here. Most Specific Aims pages only make sense after reading the rest of the grant. The Aims page needs to stand alone and make sense. All info that reader needs to understand that page needs to be ON THAT PAGE. Yes, It's not easy.

Help me Twitter. I told my 5 year old daughter “Vegetables make you smart.” She looked at me and asked “HOW do vegetables make you smart?”

Dear Students, Don't use your writing struggles as evidence to support that you're not a writer & can't write. Those struggles, like needing 17 drafts to get it right, are literally just normal steps in the writing process. It's not you. We're all struggling. It's hard as hell.

No one is immune to developing a mental health condition or needing to take care of their mental health. No matter who you are, don’t forget to take care of yourself!
