NSF Fellowships for Transformative Computational Science using 
CyberInfrastructure (CI TraCS)
PROGRAM SOLICITATION
NSF 10-553
http://www.nsf.gov/pubs/2010/nsf10553/nsf10553.htm

Full Proposal Deadline(s) (due by 5 p.m. proposer's local time):
June 21, 2010

Synopsis of Program:
The overarching goal of the NSF Fellowships for Transformative 
Computational Science using Cyberinfrastructure (CI TRaCS) program is 
to support outstanding scientists and engineers who have recently 
completed doctoral studies and are interested in pursuing 
postdoctoral activities in computational science, and thereby 
nurturing the future leaders in this emerging and important 
multidisciplinary field. Computational research and education 
activities that are cyberinfrastrucure-based and cross disciplinary 
boundaries are a key focus of this program. Successful Fellows may, 
for example, use cyberinfrastructure to make revolutionary advances 
in their disciplines, and/or deploy cyberinfrastructure-based 
technologies that enable innovative computational practices.

Organization Limit: 
Proposals may only be submitted by the following:
	*Only individuals may apply. CI TraCS Fellowships are awards 
to individuals and applications are submitted directly by applicants 
to NSF. Applicants must be U.S. citizens, nationals, or legally 
admitted permanent resident aliens of the United States and meet 
other eligibility criteria listed below in the program solicitation. 
Applications must identify a host research institution (e.g., 
colleges and universities, and privately-sponsored nonprofit 
institutes, government agencies and laboratories, and, under special 
conditions, for-profit organizations). Applications must also include 
statements from the host institution(s) committing to providing 
resources and supporting the research and education activities 
proposed in the application, and must identify an individual (or 
individuals) who is willing to mentor the applicant.  There is no 
limit on the number of applicants that an institution may host.

PI Limit: 
Each Fellowship is awarded to a single recipient.
