To pursue Excellence, we must be absolutely professional in knowledge and resolutely oppose luck. I believe that the application of the National Natural Science Foundation is fair, and everyone must rely on strength to compete and make great efforts to write the tender; If you think NSFC is only relevant, then you don't have to read on. The National Natural Science Foundation of China is a systematic project, which requires a lot of time and energy. It is not as simple as a few pages of tender, but the crystallization of wisdom. Don't think too highly of the National Natural Science Foundation, but believe in your creativity. Opportunism does exist, but we have no other capital, so we can only rule out all possible failure factors in the tender, and add perfect topic selection and topic design to completely conquer the judges. Fund application is different from the actual scientific research project design, so it is necessary to combine personal interests with the interests of the Fund Committee to suit your own interests.
A good topic is produced under the condition of profound understanding of the topic. Read a lot of literature, and don't forget to think while learning knowledge. When you find someone else's loophole, a good topic is not far from you. It is best to choose topics according to problems rather than techniques. When you find the problem, you find the topic. And holding new technology to find problems that can be solved is mostly ineffective, but there are still many people, such as RNAi. Emancipating the mind, divergent thinking, multi-faceted methods, and interdisciplinary are generally favored by people. It is easy to apply for funds, but you can't cross it for the sake of crossing. The subject of innovating new technologies and theories should have a certain theoretical and technical basis, preferably a working basis.
