The National Science Foundation (NSF) and Oak Ridge Associated 
Universities (ORAU) are pleased to announce that they will sponsor a 
maximum of 20 young researchers to attend the 2^nd annual Heidelberg 
Laureate Forum in Heidelberg, Germany, from September 21 through 26, 
2014. NSF and ORAU invite your institution to nominate graduate students 
and postdoctoral researchers to be members of the U.S. Delegation to 
this prestigious meeting.

The first Heidelberg Laureate Forum (HLF) was held in 2013 bringing 
together winners of the Fields Medal, Abel Prize, Turing Award, and Rolf 
Nevanlinna Prize with young researchers in Heidelberg, Germany on the 
campus of the University of Heidelberg. It is anticipated that about 200 
young researchers from around the world will attend the weeklong meeting 
in 2014. There are formal lectures in the morning, and the remainder of 
the day is set aside for the young researchers to meet informally with 
the Laureate scientists, as well as with their peers from around the world.

U.S. delegation members will receive all business-related expenses to 
attend the HLF along with some additional benefits. We are seeking 
applicants from U.S. institutions and meet the criteria set forth by 
ORAU and HLF. We are especially interested in receiving nominations from 
a diverse group of students, including women, minorities and people with 
disabilities. Specific eligibility criteria and a nomination form may be 
found on our web site: http://www.orau.org/hlf. All applicants to the 
U.S. delegation must also apply to attend to the HLF Foundation at 
http://www.heidelberg-laureate-forum.org/call-for-application.

All nominations must be submitted before Monday, March 3, 2014 at 12:00 
pm, Eastern Time.  We know this is a short time period but the HLF has a 
hard deadline for the completion of all nominations. Further information 
about the program, including the Web site for submission of nominations, 
can be found online at http://www.orau.org/hlf.

If you have any questions or need further information, please use the 
contact information below.

Best Regards,

Samuel Held

Program Manager
