Join Queen’s University Research Projects Advisors and very special guest Dr. Dawn McArthur — live and in-person! — for this hands-on, half-day grant-writing workshop at the Donald Gordon Hotel and Conference Centre on June 10, 2022.
While participants have the option of attending virtually, in-person attendees are likely to benefit more from what the workshop has to offer. Dr. McArthur will be providing tools and strategies designed to address the start-to-finish challenges of successful research grant proposals, regardless of discipline or specific funding agency.
Both early-career and established faculty members stand to benefit from the workshop, which will be divided into the following four components:
Following the workshop, researchers will be better prepared to find appropriate funding; interpret requests for applications; develop their research ideas, project plans, and budgets; and craft a competitive proposal.

Dr. Dawn McArthur is Director, Research and Technology Development at BC Children's Hospital Research Institute (BCCHR) , one of UBC’s four hospital-based research institutes.
Dr. McArthur has held senior research development positions for 20+ years and has worked with researchers from all fields, from arts/design to zoology. From 1999-2003, she was a senior university grants facilitator at Simon Fraser University, working with faculty across all disciplines.
In 2003, Dr. McArthur was recruited to BCCHR to establish and lead the Research & Technology Development Office (RTDO), with the mandate to enhance research excellence, capacity, and competitiveness of the Institute's multi-disciplinary research community and of its colleagues in women’s health. The RTDO has an exceptional record for success and has contributed to bringing in more than $550 million in external funding for researchers and the institute through salary awards, operating grants, training programs, teams/networks, and major infrastructure projects.
Dr. McArthur gives workshops and webinars in Canada and abroad on various topics related to competitive proposals and research development. Her background is in comparative physiology/energy metabolism (BSc 1st Hons, MSc, UBC; PhD, University of Alberta) and stress/obesity/diabetes (PDFs, University of Alberta and SFU).
