SIAM’s Science Policy Fellowship Program engages early-career professionals in science policy and advocacy. Fellowship recipients learn about the workings of science policy as it pertains to our discipline by participating in SIAM’s Committee on Science Policy (CSP) meetings and conducting relevant activities to further SIAM’s science policy efforts.
The 2020 Fellowship recipients are as follows:
- Samantha Erwin, Oak Ridge National Laboratory
- Michael Schneier, University of Pittsburgh
- Alyson Fox, Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory
- George Slota, Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute
- Luis Sordo Vieira, The Jackson Laboratory*
- Andy Huang, Sandia National Laboratories*
- Anthony Bonifonte, Denison University*
Fellowships will pay for travel to the biannual SIAM CSP meetings. Each spring, the CSP meets with representatives of agencies (such as the National Science Foundation and the Department of Energy) that are relevant to our discipline and visits congressional offices to promote the importance of research funding, graduate training, and undergraduate education in applied mathematics and computational science.
