When the University of Cincinnati required funding to support their Cardiology Research department, they looked no further than Sandy Nagel. Sandy’s training in grant proposal writing and exceptional organizational skills were key in developing the NIH SCOR grant application, her efforts included; compiling research, CVs, budgets & graphics/photos. With only 2 SCOR grants issued in the U.S, Sandy’s amazing understanding of the submission process allowed UC to further their mission in Cardiovascular Research.
