Announcing such a major change to NSF GRFP this late in the cycle is incredibly cruel. 2nd yr students (mine included) have been working so hard on their proposals despite ongoing uncertainty. They are driven and passionate about being outstanding scientists and helping those coming up behind them.

This means individuals in the following statuses at the time of application are eligible:

    Undergraduate in the final (senior) year of a bachelor’s degree program
    Bachelor’s degree-holder with NO enrollment in a graduate degree program (non-degree graduate coursework allowed)
    Individual enrolled in a joint bachelor’s-master’s degree program with at least three undergraduate years completed  
    First-year graduate student in their first graduate degree program with less than one academic year completed in the degree program (according to institution’s academic calendar)
        Individuals enrolled in joint bachelor’s-master’s degree programs are considered graduate students. For GRFP, joint bachelor’s-master’s degrees are defined as degrees concurrently pursued and awarded.
        Not be a current NSF employee.

Applications that do not meet eligibility requirements will be returned without review as being ineligible for a fellowship.

120 scientist working together to study how to effectively implement programs to end the HIV epidemic! That’s epic!

HIV Implementation Science Coordination Initiative@hivimpsci.bsky.social · last yr.

🚨 New JAIDS supplemental issue published today! Coordinated by ISCI, this supplemental issue examines 120 NIH-funded projects aimed at ending the #HIV epidemic, sharing key findings and highlighting strategies for success. Read it now: tinyurl.com/4jb2fmbt

JAIDS supplemental issue now published: “State of US HIV Implementation Science: Progress and Priorities to End the Epidemic by 2030." Volume 98, supplement 5. HIV Implementation Science Coordination Initiative.

These studies will probably get cut too when findings support that: 1) a very small minority of people detransition 2) of those that do detransition, the majority do it for their safety or financial reasons 3) many "detransitioners" REtransition at some point trans people aren't going anywhere🤷
