The Colin Garfield Fink Summer Fellowship is awarded annually by The Electrochemical Society (ECS) to support postdoctoral scientists or engineers who are ECS members in good standing. The fellowship provides $5,000 to assist with research conducted during the summer months (June through August). The recipient is expected to submit a brief summary of their research at the end of the fellowship period, suitable for publication in the ECS Interface, and must acknowledge the fellowship in any related formal publications. The award is intended to allow the recipient to uniquely hold this ECS Summer Fellowship during the period; therefore, concurrent named fellowships are not permitted.
