Fellowships for Computational Scientists
Since I feel like I am always hearing about new fellowships that I should apply for soon, or that I should have applied for already, I am creating this list of fellowships that I think are relevant to scientists specializing in computational work. While this list will likely not be exhaustive, and will contain no institute-specific fellowships, I intend to use it to track what fellowships I might apply for when needed and hope others will find it useful as well!
Note that I don't guarantee any of the information to be completely correct and you should always read through the solicitation for the various fellowships to fully understand all of the terms, conditions, and application components.
Also note, this is a work in progress and is being constantly updated (as of 2017).
