Mathematical Sciences: Postdoctoral Research Fellowship

数学科学博士后研究奖学金是授予最近获得博士学位的人的奖项。该奖学金旨在提供24个月的支助，分为18个学术月和3个为期两个夏季的月。受助者可以选择研究指导，将18个月的学术支持视为9个月的全职支持和18个月的半职支持。数学科学博士后研究奖学金允许研究员选择对其未来科学发展产生最大影响的研究环境。理查德·刘在加州大学伯克利分校获得博士学位，他将在康奈尔大学的劳伦斯·布朗的指导下，从事统计学领域的研究，特别是非参数函数估计/稳健和有效估计的效率。

The Mathematical Sciences Postdoctoral Research Fellowships are awards to recent recipients of doctoral degrees. The fellowship is designed to provide 24 months of support divided into 18 academic months and 3 periods of two summer months. The recipient has the option of a Research Instructorship which allows the 18 months of academic support to be taken as 9 months of full-time support and 18 months of half-time support. Mathematical Sciences Postdoctoral Research Fellowship awards allow fellows to choose research environments that will have maximal impact on their future scientific development. Richard Liu received his doctoral degree from the University of California, Berkeley, and will pursue research in the area of statistics, specifically, efficiency in nonparametric functional estimations/robust and efficient estimations, under the guidance of Lawrence Brown of Cornell University.
