Lost in Translation: The Founding Cohort

 

Everything in the self-paced curriculum — plus five weeks of live sessions, peer feedback, and direct coaching with Dr. Lisa Carter-Bawa. Built around the October 5, 2026 NIH deadline.

You've seen the Five Translation Gaps. You have the modules and the workbooks. The Founding Cohort adds what self-paced learning can't: structure, feedback, and accountability — with your actual grant as the throughline.

Over five weeks, you'll work through the curriculum alongside a small group of investigators all preparing for the same NIH deadline. You'll join five live sessions with Dr. Carter-Bawa, apply each module to your own Specific Aims page, and leave with a polished draft and five weeks of runway before October 5.

This is the first time this cohort is being offered to individual investigators. Space is limited to 10 participants to ensure meaningful coaching and personalized feedback on every participant's work.

What's Included section:

  • Five live 90-minute sessions — Mondays, noon–1:30 PM ET, August 3–31

  • Full access to the Lost in Translation self-paced curriculum (14 modules, 13 companion workbooks)

  • Peer cohort with breakout pairs for real-time feedback

  • Direct engagement with your Specific Aims page throughout the program

  • A curriculum aligned with the NIH 2025 Simplified Review Framework

Who This Is For:

Early-career investigators and postdoctoral fellows preparing an R01, R21, R34, or K-series application for the October 5, 2026 NIH deadline. You should have a grant idea or draft in progress. This cohort is application-based — we review every application to ensure a strong, diverse group.

Pricing:

  • Founding Cohort: $997 (includes full course access)

  • Already own the course? $697

This is founding cohort pricing for the first pilot offering. Future cohorts will be priced higher.
