In this instructional segment, Stacy Chin explains how founders should craft the Specific Aims section of an NIH SBIR proposal. She emphasizes outlining concrete tasks that address the technical R&D hurdle, and presenting them as well‑organized specific aims. The guidance stresses the need to detail timelines, available resources, and expected deliverables, while highlighting the rigor and methodologies that will be used. This level of detail is intended to give reviewers confidence in the feasibility of the proposed project.

Outline the specific tasks, experience, or activities that you plan to undertake to overcome your technical R&D hurdle. And we call each of these tasks the specific aims. And when you draft this section, it is important to demonstrate a well-organized and thoughtful approach detailing the timelines, resources available, and anticipated deliverables. Here, founders can also emphasize the rigor and methodologies that will be implemented when executing this proposed project so that the reviewers have the confidence in the project's feasibility.
