My feedback will mainly focus on your grant writing, but I'll also read over your supplementary materials and I'll let you know if I see something in these that could be strengthened.
After you book, I'll send you an optional template you can use for your grant writing. You're welcome to use your own template if you have one, but please make sure your answers are under the CCA's maximum word count.
