The methods and experimental design section needs a gantt chart added as described in the document called proposal-pro forma (which I am not sure how to include in my research so i need assistance in that). furthermore, the entire proposal should be checked again to make sure it abides by everything said in the proposal pro forma. the appendices section also needs to be polished aswell i don′t think it is well described. Furthermore, please check the table that I have put regarding the expected results im not sure how put that correctly.
Regarding my proposal, I have had an emailed response from my lecturer and it is below regarding my proposal that needs to be edited.
“I had a quick look at your proposal and overall it looks far better than the draft. So while it could be better, but I think that should do for now. I suggest you to put those subsection title at left side instead of centred as you did, take off those “Paper and stationary” and “Institutional F&A costs” from the costing table. Also, I clearly told you it’s not about equipment as you should assume you have all necessary equipment (that also include cages, because often universities have animal facilities with all necessary stuff in there) it’s about the other stuff you need. Also, how did you get that £3,340 for those “lab supplies and equipment” ? you need to say what do you mean? What supplies?? You can’t just put it there for us to figure out what it is. This is a proposal that you use to get funds from a funding agency, so you need to tell them everything in details.”
The words count won’t change by adding in the table what other stuff you need (tables won’t count in the words count). The other stuff is simply like “mice, buffers, syringes, ….” The real stuff to do your experiment. Yes, that will be good to put a Gantt chart.”
If you need any more clarification please let me know if you believe anything should be added to the appendix 1 section or appendix 2 section please let me know. furthermore, the most important thing is to put a Gantt chart…
