The report should not exceed 10, double spaced pages and should include the following sections:
Section A   A description of the process of the study (successes and less than successes). This is the "story" of how the project went, the issues encountered, the solutions to those issues, etc.
Section B   A detailed discussion of the findings (data analysis, interpretation, and conclusions).
Section C   A reflection on how this pilot project has/will influence the PI’s program of research.
Section D   A specific description of how the follow-up commitment will be achieved.  Address how the PI will:
  1. Submit study results to a peer reviewed journal within six months of study completion.
  2. Submit a research proposal for extramural funding within one year of study completion.
  3. Present research results at a regional/national/international scientific conference within one year of study completion.
 
It is our practice that any unspent funds are returned to the CRCHC budget to continue the work of the Center.  Because we are not able to reapply for NINR funding, we are trying to be very wise stewards so as to allow us to carry the work of the CRCHC into a fourth year.  Should you have some special needs, please contact Clarann Weinert, SC, PhD, RN, FAAN, Center Director to discuss the use of unspent funds.
