Summary points:

- Writing grant applications is a skill that researchers must acquire;
- Decide which grant making body to approach at the outset; make sure
  that proposed research is relevant to the funding body;
- Write focused, succinct, clear applications that follow the guide-
  lines set down;
- Learn from rejections.
