Surgeons often find grant writing difficult and there is a perception amongst them that their projects are looked upon unfavourably. However, there is no reason or evidence to suggest that this is true and often surgeons are in ideal positions to conduct research, particularly in the areas of technical innovation and clinical trials. Major funding bodies do not discriminate against surgeons compared to other researchers, and there are even specific funding streams available only to surgeons.The opportunities for surgical research and funding are currently greater than at any previous time. To make the best use of these opportunities it is important to prepare a comprehensive, detailed and error-free application. However, many surgical applications are poorly prepared which therefore makes the award of funding impossible. The chances of success can be improved through the consideration of several key areas in the application that are directly addressed in this article.
