The fellowship holder will spend one semester (not necessarily the first) at the Simons Institute for the Theory of Computing and the remainder of the fellowship at the Max Planck Institute.

For the residence at the Simons Institute there is a preference for the research topic to be related to a respective half-year research program run at the Simons Institute. Descriptions of these programs and other information about the Simons Institute can be found at http://simons.berkeley.edu.
