Abstract: This piece follows an earlier Editorial, ‘‘Ten Simple Rules for Getting Published’’ [1], which has generated significant interest, is well read, and continues to generate a variety of positive comments. That Editorial was aimed at students in the early stages of a life of scientific paper writing. This interest has prompted us to try to help scientists in making the next academic career step—becoming a young principal investigator. Leo Chalupa has joined us in putting together ten simple rules for getting grants, based on our many collective years of writing both successful and unsuccessful grants. While our grant writing efforts have been aimed mainly at United States government funding agencies, we believe the rules presented here are generic, transcending funding institutions and national boundaries. At the present time, US funding is frequently below 10% for a given grant program. Today, more than ever, we need all the help we can get in writing successful grant proposals. We hope you find these rules useful in reaching your research career goals.

Ten simple rules for getting published.
TL;DR: The student council of the International Society for Computational Biology asked me to present my thoughts on getting published in the field of computational biology at the Intelligent Systems in Molecular Biology conference held in Detroit in late June of 2005, and the advice I gave that day is modified and present as ten rules for getting published.
Ten simple rules for making good oral presentations.
TL;DR: What it takes to make a good oral presentation is considered; the rules apply broadly across disciplines and are certainly important from the perspective of this readership.
