Video Presentation Consideration Grant writers invest, on average, 34 days in preparing major grant proposals. A 2019 survey found that reviewers spend an average of ten days per year reviewing applications. Despite this enormous time investment, they struggle to rank grants reliably while following the current processes. The community’s capacity to engage more reviewers per application is dependent on improving the efficiency of the grant-review process. Using video as a time-efficient medium to help reviewers to navigate proposals may entice more researchers to offer their grant-reviewing expertise. Consider the use of video presentations for grant proposals and discuss the pros and cons of the process. Then present your idea for a grant proposal using a video presentation.
