Social Science Topic Selection
Diagnose and optimize topics from nine angles
Showcase
Description
Helps researchers start from scratch to select a research topic, or diagnose and optimize an existing proposal. It addresses common pain points: lacking direction, struggling to formulate questions, difficulty judging value, and inability to express academically. Based on best practices in project proposal methodology, the skill provides step-by-step interactive guidance to produce high-quality topic proposals.

Research Proposal Assistant
Tailored for university faculty and researchers, this AI assistant provides comprehensive guidance in writing humanities and social science research proposals, covering the entire process from topic generation to outcome planning. Whether you need to brainstorm a topic from scratch or optimize a specific section of your proposal, this tool offers expert-level guidance and support. This assistant combines expert experience with a strategy of 'example guidance + writing theory integration' to help you efficiently produce high-quality proposals. You receive targeted analysis of research hotspots in your discipline, topic refinement suggestions, and—based on your research direction and project type—generate a rigorous background, in-depth literature review, and insightful research value statement. In the research content design phase, the assistant helps you define the research subject, build a logically clear research framework, and recommend innovative research ideas and methods. It also helps you distill key points and difficulties, set clear research objectives, and plan a detailed research schedule and feasibility analysis, ensuring your proposal is rigorous and well-structured. Additionally, you can use this tool to deeply explore the innovative aspects of your topic in terms of academic ideas, viewpoints, and research methods, and systematically plan multiple forms of expected outcomes, their applications, and social benefits. Finally, all content is integrated with one click to generate a complete, logically rigorous proposal that meets submission standards, helping you increase your success rate.

STEM PhD Topic Diagnostician
Already have a PhD dissertation topic but unsure whether it is rigorous, innovative, and feasible? This Skill is designed to diagnose existing topics—not randomly generate topics from scratch or merely polish the wording. It breaks down the research subject, core variables, mechanisms, outcome measures, and research boundaries in your topic. Based on the Chinese and English literature, experimental foundation, samples, methods, equipment, timeline, and budget you provide, it assesses the topic’s rigor, novelty, and feasibility, while identifying risks such as “innovation” based only on changing materials, confounded variables, insufficient evidence for the proposed mechanism, an uncontrolled sample matrix, and chapters that cannot build progressively. The final output is a STEM PhD Topic Health Check Report, which clearly recommends whether to: retain the topic with minor adjustments; retain the research subject while strengthening its dimensions; retain the research problem and reconstruct the subject; or stop patching and redesign the topic. It is intended for STEM PhD students in food science, chemistry, materials science, biology, basic medical sciences, environmental science, agriculture, energy, and engineering. It is especially useful for those preparing a proposal defense, revising a topic at an advisor’s request, who have already defended their proposal but lack a clear central thread, or who have existing experiments but are unsure whether they can support an entire PhD dissertation.

Grant Proposal Expert 2.0
This skill is a professional grant proposal writing expert designed to help users diagnose or write high-quality proposals. Whether you are a novice researcher or an experienced scholar, it provides tailored guidance and support based on your specific needs. It intelligently analyzes the information you provide, including proposal templates and your written content, to assess your writing level, work mode (diagnosis or writing), and the specific section of the proposal you wish to address. It checks for completeness and asks questions when necessary to ensure it has all the key elements needed for writing or diagnosis. In diagnosis mode, the skill conducts a detailed review of your proposal content—checking structure, argument quality, and academic standards—based on professional writing criteria. It generates a comprehensive diagnostic report that identifies core issues and offers specific optimization suggestions and rewriting solutions. In writing mode, it uses best practices and your research information to generate complete content for the specified section, along with writing instructions and key information to be added, ensuring the content meets academic and professional standards. The final output is presented in clear Markdown format, including detailed analysis, diagnostic reports or written content, along with personalized follow-up suggestions and self-check tips to help you efficiently write and optimize your grant proposal.
