This action funds an NSF Minority Postdoctoral Research Fellowship for FY2003. The goal of the fellowship is to increase the participation of minority scientists at the postdoctoral level and to prepare them for positions of scientific leadership in academia and industry. To attain this goal, the fellowship provides opportunities for postdoctoral training and research of the highest quality to recent doctoral recipients. It is expected that Fellows supported through these fellowships will play important roles in training of the future workforce.The research and training plan is entitled "Adaptive landscapes and the evolution of cooperation in RNA viruses." RNA bacteriophages present unique opportunities to explore the evolution of cooperation. When two or more viruses infect a cell, opportunities for cooperation or conflict arise. Interactions within the host between co-infecting viruses can affect the fitness of each and have various implications for the health of the host.

这一行动为2003财年的NSF少数民族博士后研究奖学金提供了资金。该奖学金的目标是增加少数民族科学家在博士后水平上的参与，并为他们在学术界和工业界担任科学领导职位做好准备。为了实现这一目标，该奖学金为最近的博士后获得者提供了高质量的博士后培训和研究机会。预计通过这些奖学金支持的研究员将在未来劳动力的培训中发挥重要作用。这项研究和培训计划的标题是“RNA病毒的适应环境和合作的演变”。RNA噬菌体为探索合作进化提供了独特的机会。当两个或更多的病毒感染一个细胞时，合作或冲突的机会就会出现。宿主内共感染病毒之间的相互作用可能会影响每种病毒的适合性，并对宿主的健康有各种影响。
