Title of Proposed Project
20.109(F12) Pre-Proposal: Rice
Project Summary
THREE SENTENCES ONLY.
For example (from [1])
"There are starving children in Asia. We want to make more rice."
Introduction
ONE PARAGRAPH and at least TWO REFERENCES
Hungry children
Your idea
TWO PARAGRAPHS
Make clear what you see is the structural hole/gap in understanding or the need, and how you propose to fill in or satisfy what you've identified. You should specify your general approach (e.g. "will screen for mutants that enhance the contrast of the bacterial photography system") but do not need to think through the precise experimental details yet. Emphasize instead what results hope to collect and how they might improve the shortcomings that you've identified as interesting.
A sketch
Please make (don't copy or re-print another author's) a summary figure for your idea. This should give the reader a good idea about the idea you are proposing, cluing them in to the field you've focused on, the question you're asking and, ideally, the approach you're taking in your proposed research. These can be hand-drawn and scanned or designed digitally and posted.
