Description
We Are:The Fermilab Neutrino Physics Center (NPC) is a community organization that facilitates communication and collaboration throughout the international neutrino physics community. The NPC's fellowship program brings experimentalists working on Fermilab experiments and neutrino theorists to Fermilab to engage with the neutrino community at the Lab.
Fermilab is America’s premier laboratory for particle physics and accelerator research, funded by the U.S. Department of Energy. We support discovery science experiments in Illinois and at locations around the world, including deep underground mines in South Dakota and Canada, mountaintops in Arizona and Chile, and the South Pole.
Open Date: February 28th, 2023
Close Date: April 10th, 2023
The NPC Fellowship is designed to bring neutrino researchers (experimentalists and theorists) to Fermilab. For experimentalists, awards are made for hardware and software projects. For theorists, the awards are made for neutrino theory or phenomenology related to the Fermilab neutrino program, interpreted in a broad sense.
Fermilab’s Neutrino Division has a strong and exciting research program with major commitments to a diverse range of current and future neutrino experiments, including DUNE, NOvA, MicroBooNE, SBN (SBND and ICARUS detectors), and ANNIE.
Additional information on the Fermilab neutrino program can be found here: http://neutrinophysics.fnal.gov/.
NPC awards are intended to support researchers for short and medium-term stays at Fermilab, ranging from two weeks to 6 months.
A successful award typically provides: travel to and from Fermilab, housing support at Fermilab, per diem during time at Fermilab, and support for transportation around Fermilab.

Eligibility
- Qualified applicants are graduate students, postdoctoral fellows, and senior researchers.
- All of the above should apply directly, but graduate students can either apply directly or in conjunction with their advisors.
- Graduate students and postdoctoral fellows should indicate the dates of current and expected terms of their employment or Ph.D., and all candidates must be employed by a U.S. or non-U.S. institution at the end of the award period, EXCEPT for graduate students and emeritus scientists.
Ferrmilab employees are not eligible to apply for these Fellowships.
The funds awarded by the fellowship must be used within 1 year of the date of the award letter.
Award money can only be used while in residence at Fermilab or in travel to the lab, and cannot be used for other travel. The award may not be used to fund travel away from Fermilab (e.g., to visit another facility or attend a conference) or support while not in residence at Fermilab.
Application Materials Required:
