The Fellowships are designed to permit Fellows to choose the research and training environment most beneficial to their scientific development. This requires a change from the doctoral institution or a justification if this change is not proposed. Applicants may submit no more than one application per year. There is no limit on the number of applicants that an institution may host. Please see the full program announcement for further information.
Fellowships have an institutional allowance in lieu of indirect costs.
Graduate Student Travel and Research Starter Awards allow no indirect costs. Graduate Student Travel Awards must be received no later than 3 months prior to the proposed travel. Research Starter Award proposals may be submitted at any time. Antoinette Allen-Moore, Computer Assistant, DBI, rm. National Science Board approved criteria.
