Simons-Berkeley Research Fellowships are intended for exceptional young scientists (within at most five years of the award of their PhD at the start of the academic year of their Fellowship). The Institute offers about sixteen Fellowships each semester; the majority of these are for one semester, in connection with a specific program, but several appointments for a full academic year are also available. In each semester of residence, a Fellow normally participates in at least one of the ongoing programs at the Institute.
