Book excerpt: This concise guide to planning, writing, and presenting research in biology and behavioral ecology is intended for students at all levels. The guidelines apply equally to independent projects for undergraduate theses, as well as to doctoral dissertations, and research aimed at publication. The book discusses planning research, writing a research proposal (such as a formal proposal for a thesis, or for a funding agency), writing a research report (such as a graduate thesis, or a manuscript for publication in a research journal), and presenting research at research seminars and scientific meetings. The final chapter covers writing an effective CV. An appendix gives some tips on how to write clearly.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Takes the reader to a new level in proposal writing "The authors have captured the gestalt of grant writing in a lucid fashion. In short, I think students would appreciate the clarity and insights this book offers." —Robert J. Hard, University of Texas at San Antonio "As a research scientist who is frequently involved in proposal development myself, it is clear to me that the authors have travelled the grant writer's path before." —John V. Stone, Michigan State University This resource provides a step-by-step approach to turning a research idea into a proposal worthy of funding, demystifying the process as a result. The authors present a proven approach to the development of research ideas alongside a systematic treatment of proposals section-by-section and project management function-by-function. Highly accessible, this book gives examples for each aspect of the proposal development and works through sketches of ideas to fully developed proposal sections. Key Features Contains idea development linked to specific proposal sections: Supports creativity that can be captured effectively and systematically one step at a time. Uses sketches to facilitate idea development and make enhancement and revisions easy: Allows for ease in trying out alternative formulations and revising preliminary approaches. Provides international research proposals: Key to understanding resources for proposing international research collaborations. Shows how to manage a funded project: Guides researchers and research staff in effectively implementing a funded project. This book is appropriate for all graduate students across the health, social, and behavioral sciences who need guidance on writing successful, compelling funding proposals.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is a hands-on guide for graduate students and young researchers wishing to perfect the practical skills needed for a successful research career. By teaching junior scientists to develop effective research habits, the book helps to make the experience of graduate study a more efficient and rewarding one. The authors have taught a graduate course on the topics covered for many years, and provide a sample curriculum for instructors in graduate schools wanting to teach a similar course. Topics covered include choosing a research topic, department, and advisor; making workplans; the ethics of research; using scientific literature; perfecting oral and written communication; publishing papers; writing proposals; managing time effectively; and planning a scientific career and applying for jobs in research and industry. The wealth of advice is invaluable to students, junior researchers and mentors in all fields of science, engineering, and the humanities. The authors have taught a graduate course on the topics covered for many years, and provide a sample curriculum for instructors in graduate schools wanting to teach a similar course. The sample curriculum is available in the book as Appendix B, and as an online resource.
