The Sidney Fernbach Postdoctoral Fellowship in the Computing Sciences was established in 2012 to attract top new researchers into the Computation Directorate. Similar to LLNL’s Lawrence Fellowship, it offers outstanding new scientists the opportunity to establish their own research directions with a great deal of autonomy. The Lawrence Fellowship is open to all technical disciplines at the Laboratory and is awarded to several candidates each year. The Fernbach, on the other hand, focuses specifically on disciplines in the computing sciences: applied mathematics, computer science, computational science, and data science. It usually supports one fellow at a time for a two-year term.
