We are pleased to announce the OpenSim Fellows Program
<http://www.stanford.edu/group/opensim/support/fellows.html>– a new
initiative from the OpenSim project and the National Center for Simulation
in Rehabilitation Research. The goal of the OpenSim Fellows Program is to
cultivate and engage a community of OpenSim experts who will collectively
advance the field of neuro-musculoskeletal modeling and simulation.

The full details<http://www.stanford.edu/group/opensim/support/fellows.html>of
the
program, including
benefits<http://www.stanford.edu/group/opensim/support/fellows.html#Benefits>and
responsibilities<http://www.stanford.edu/group/opensim/support/fellows.html#Responsibilities>are
available on our website. Some of the benefits include participation
in
a biannual Fellows symposium, access to support, and recognition as a
Fellow and recommended OpenSim consultant. The OpenSim Fellows will help to
grow and sustain the modeling and simulation community by 1) training the
next generation of researchers; 2) encouraging interdisciplinary
collaboration; 3) sharing models, data, and software; 4) advocating for
model validation; and 5) demonstrating simulation best practices.

The application<http://www.stanford.edu/group/opensim/support/fellows.html#ApplicationProcess>includes
a CV, two representative publications, five short essays, and two
letters of endorsement. Applicants must demonstrate OpenSim expertise and
contributions to the community. Applications will be accepted and reviewed
on a rolling basis.

Please let us know if you have any questions about the program or the
application process.

Best wishes,
Jen
