The Clifford G. Shull Fellowship was established in recognition of Shull’s pioneering work in neutron scattering. Corecipient of the 1994 Nobel Prize in Physics, Shull began his work in 1946 at what is now ORNL. The distinguished scientist is often referred to as the “Father of Neutron Scattering.”
The goal of this fellowship is to attract new scientific talent to ORNL for the development of its neutron science program. We are looking for candidates with exceptional ability who are capable of developing innovative research programs and who show the promise of outstanding leadership.
Shull fellows are sponsored by the Neutron Scattering Science Division, which manages scientific activities at both SNS and HFIR. Fellowships are two-year appointments, renewable for a third.
