Proposal Presentation Review Presenter: Anna Reviewer: Jon C. 1. Did the presentation clearly describe the aims of the research – empirical, conceptual, methodological and practical? Yes...

2. Did the presentation provide an overview of what we already know about the research subject, and then explain how the proposed research will create new knowledge? Yes.

3. Did the presentation provide a robust sense of how the research will be carried out, and of the type of data that will be collected? Yes

4. Did the research plan presented seem credible and feasible? Yes -- 60 interviews is a whole lot.

5. Did the presentation provide a tangible sense of the book and other outcomes of the research? Not really, but you are still early in your research.

6. Did the presentation persuade you that the proposed research is important, in this historical moment in particular? Yes.

7. Was the speaking style clear, engaging and well timed? You spoke rather quickly; someone who isn't used to your speed might have trouble understanding you.

8. Further comments and questions. Unlike Ned, I think that there is a "safe" way to do nanotech stuff, and this research will help flesh it out.
