Now in its fourth year, the Early Career Awards support the development of individual research programs by outstanding scientists who are in the early stages of their careers, and stimulates research careers in the disciplines supported by the DOE's Office of Science. Across the Office of Basic Energy Sciences divisions, 61 awards were made from about 770 proposals that went out for peer review.
