Identifying promising funding opportunities is the first step to winning a research grant. In this interactive workshop, ORD's Carolyn Bradley will introduce participants to the most comprehensive funding database available: Pivot.  Participants will learn how they can use Pivot to easily find funding for their research projects from both federal funding agencies and private foundations.  Over the course of an hour, Carolyn will walk participants through the process of creating an account and engineering targeted funding searches.
