Description
Tier 1: Basic Narrative Drafting ($2,000)
The Goal: A sophisticated, reviewer-ready “Bioinformatics Approach” section for your NIH/NSF/AHA grant.
- Timeline: 72-Hour Rapid Kickoff (approx. 1.5 work weeks for delivery).
- Best For: PIs who already have their preliminary data but need a PhD-level computational strategy written for the “Approach” or “Innovation” sections.
- What’s Included:
- Strategic Technical Writing: Full drafting of the bioinformatics/computational biology sections, including detailed pipeline descriptions (Nextflow/Docker) and statistical power justifications.
- Resource & Environment Section: Preparation of the “Facilities and Other Resources” text, highlighting the high-performance computing (HPC) or cloud infrastructure (AWS/GCP) to be used.
- Literature Alignment: Integration of current “Gold Standard” methods and benchmarks to demonstrate that your proposed research is cutting-edge.
- The Deliverable: A polished, “submission-ready” technical narrative (Word/LaTeX) tailored to your specific grant mechanism and study section.
Tier 2: Premium Preliminary Data & Visuals ($5,000)
The Goal: The “Money Shot”—undeniable visual and statistical proof of feasibility to secure high reviewer scores.
- Timeline: Priority Scheduling (approx. 3 work weeks for delivery).
- Best For: High-stakes grants (R01, Program Projects, or Series A Biotech pitches) needing fresh preliminary data analysis and high-impact integrated visuals.
- What’s Included:
- Pilot Data Analysis: Full execution of 1–2 key modules (e.g., initial clustering or biomarker identification) on your provided pilot samples to generate “Preliminary Results.”
- The “Fundability” Figure: Generation of 2–3 high-impact, multi-panel visuals (Nature/JCI-level) designed to be the centerpiece of your “Research Strategy.”
- External Data Integration: Sourcing and integrating relevant public data (TCGA, GTEx, GEO) to demonstrate the broader clinical or biological relevance of your proposal.
- Iterative Grant Review: Up to two rounds of narrative refinement to ensure the technical story perfectly aligns with your specific aims and reviewer feedback.
- The Deliverable: A complete “Preliminary Results” package including high-resolution figures, a detailed technical methods draft, and a statistical feasibility report.
