The NHFP supports promising postdoctoral scientists performing independent research that contributes to NASA Astrophysics https://science.nasa.gov/astrophysics for more information. The research may be theoretical, observational, and/or instrumental. If your application is successful you will become an Einstein, Hubble or Sagan fellow depending on the area of your research. We are continuing the legacy of those three earlier programs in this way, and through joint management of the program by STScI, in collaboration with The Chandra X-ray Center and the NASA Exoplanet Science Institute.
The NHFP is open to applicants of any nationality who have earned (or will have earned) their doctoral degree on or after January 1, 2016 in astronomy, physics or related disciplines. The duration of the Fellowship is up to three years: an initial one-year appointment, and two annual renewals contingent on satisfactory performance and availability of NASA funds.
We anticipate offering up to 24 NHFP Fellowships this year. The Fellowships are tenable at a U.S. host institution of the fellow's choice, subject to a maximum of two new fellows per host institution per year, and no more than 5 granted to a single host institution in any 3 year period (where the cumulative count begins with 2018 fellows).
The Announcement of Opportunity, which includes detailed program policies and application instructions, is available at: http://nhfp.stsci.edu . The application submission page will be open until November 1, 2018.
