Mathematical Sciences Postdoctoral Research Fellowship Application Data

The information gathered with the Mathematical Sciences Postdoctoral Research Fellowship Application Forms serves for facilitating the proposal review process. Since peer review is a key component of NSF's grant-making process, it is imperative that proposals are reviewed by scien-tists with appropriate expertise. The collected information about the 2010 Mathematics Subject Classification codes of the about 250 submitted proposals helps to ensure that the comparable groups of proposals are evaluated by specialists who are well versed in appropriate subject matters. This helps maintain a fair and equitable review process. The information on the applicants' PhD institution, current employment place, and Fellowship institution, as well as prospective mentor's name will allow potential reviewers to determine conflicts of interest before reading proposals, thus ensuring fare review process.
