NSF Graduate Research Fellowships
Kudos to Christopher Lane, Ph.D. student, and Brian Sedio, incoming student, who received Graduate Research Fellowships from the National Science Foundation. GRFs provide three years of support for graduate study leading to research-based master’s or doctoral degrees. They are intended for students in the early stages of graduate study.
