Postdoctoral fellows聽and graduate students
An open competition was launched in Spring 2017, for which 221 complete and eligible applications were received: 46 at the Master's level, 117 at the doctoral level and 58 at the postdoctoral level.
Nine Master's students each received $10,000 per year for one year, 24 doctoral students each received $15,000 per year for one year, and five postdoctoral fellows each received $35,000 (plus聽benefits) per year for one or two years.
