Value: Full-time fellows based in the United States will receive a
stipend of $80,000 or $100,000, depending on work experience, seniority,
and current income. In addition to the stipend, fellows will receive a project
budget. That budget may include expenses such as travel (including airfare
and hotel), visa costs, part-time research assistance, conference fees and
health insurance. Fellowship expenses should not include operational or
programmatic costs, such as employees and physical infrastructure. The
purpose of the fellowship is to support individual fellows; therefore the
program will only cover individual expenses.
