The fellowship programs are supported by the Rockefeller Foundation, the Radio Corporation of America, Merck and Company, the Carnegie Corporation, and the Atomic Energy Commission, and administered by the National Research Council. These provide for both predoctoral and postdoctoral research by United States citizens (in one case, Canadian citizens are eligible).
