Where do you start?
1. Have an idea of what interests you in the biotechnology field. Spend some time investigating your topic of interest, what questions do you have, what would you like to look into further?

2. Find out what research is being done in Calgary, is there a lab doing research that your idea would fit with? Contact the researcher and let them know what you are doing, what your interests are. Ask them for help, or if they would like to be your mentor for the SABC program. (keep in mind that this is a part time research project that must be finished by early April)

3. Follow the links from the SABC home page for the on line application. There you will find some helpful hints and guidelines as how to write a proposal. Or go to this link -proposal writing tips- Attend our proposal writing clinic.

4. Write and submit your proposal on-line by the dead line.
