 Please review the eligibility requirements and application instructions of
fellowships/scholarships very carefully. Our meeting time will be tailored to
your specific goals and interests. Thus, it is your responsibility to be aware of
basic information and deadlines of the various fellowships before our meeting. I
am, of course, more than happy to address more nuanced questions that are not
evident from the fellowships and foundation websites.
