Testimonials of past SCAR Fellows

The first fellowships were initiated in 2002 by the Prince of Asturias Award (http://www.fpa.es) of US$50,000, which paid for 5 Fellowships in 2003. Since 2005 the SCAR Fellowship Scheme was developed. The SCAR Fellowships are sustained by contributions from SCAR Members and from other sources of revenue as they become available. The programme is designed to encourage the active involvement of early career scientists and engineers in Antarctic scientific research, and to strengthen international capacity and cooperation in Antarctic research.
