Quality versus Quantity when it comes to grant writing, which wins? – MetaMorgan TV

There are two distinct mindsets among many scientists about grant writing. One approach is to write many grants, to "play the odds". Necessarily, when quantity goes up, quality goes down. Another approach is to write less grants but of higher quality. These take more time, but may have better odds of getting funded. Which way do you think Morgan advocates for? Find out in today's episode of The Not So Boring Scientist. Leave a note in the comments if you disagree!

It’s not about the computers, it’s about the people – the NHGRI Planning meeting (MetaMorgan TV)

https://morganonscience.com Morgan was invited to participate in a meeting designed to give feedback to the NIH for the future of informatics for handling the flood of data from the "post genome" era of biology. It is a huge challenge. But in the meeting, the primary focus was all about the machines - hardware and software that it will take to get it done. I was a bit frustrated that there wasn't more about the "people" in the meeting, for reasons I discuss on the video.

Earlier in the day before taping this episode, she was feeling exactly that way, asking herself: how can I get it all done? What am I going to do? Then she (re)discovered one simple fix that puts it all in perspective and made everything seem ok again…. watch today's episode to find out what that is.
