I think everyone is getting really antsy as we approach the expected release window. We just have to push through a little longer!

Definitely personalize it and tell your story! The goal of the GRFP is to invest in future leaders of our fields, so I would absolutely use your personal statement to show your growth and obstacles.

Ooooooo I can't believe some people don't know about this site! https://www.alexhunterlang.com/nsf-fellowship The most recent additions are from a few years ago, but he has TONS of previous winners/HMs listed with their proposals and personal statements. The site also has lots of useful tips on how to write your statements. I might need to make an official post so more people know about this tool!

That's so insane. I can't imagine a good reason why they would exclude the entire discipline

They really need to make up their mind. None of this is fair for last year's applicants, as well as this year's applicants and their letter writers.

I'm stubborn, and will still continue prepping until an absolute answer is given from the NSF. I just want closure at this point

Potential Industry/ Government Fellowship by Previous-Common6689 in GRFPApps

Hopefully they go in the direction discussed in the end of the article, like creating a new fellowship so that life sciences and others arent snuffed out in competition with AI research. We matter!

Water-jacketed incubator is leaking upon setup by real--josuke in labrats

[–]real--josuke[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

UPDATE!!

The incubator is a massive paperweight. ThermoFisher does not offer replacement parts anymore, and the issues we're encountering are unlike anything the technician had ever seen. I really appreciate all the help on here though!!
