The names of 343 holders of AEC‐sponsored fellowships for the current academic year were announced in December by the Oak Ridge Institute of Nuclear Studies, which administers the fellowship program. The fellowships, given for research and study on both the predoctoral and postdoctoral levels, have been awarded for work at seventy American universities and research institutions and seven others located abroad. Of a total of three hundred predoctoral fellows, eighty‐seven are in physics, four in biophysics, and the remainder in chemistry, metallurgy, mathematics, geology, engineering, and the biological sciences. Nearly one‐quarter of the physicists received the fellowships as extensions of awards granted for the 1950–51 academic year.
