[Aaus-community-list] [aaus-list] FW: International Fellowship Opportunities for Eurasia and Eastern Europe (including Ukraine)

[Chernetsky, Vitaly A. Dr.]

Dear Colleagues,

Please see the announcement below from IREX. An important change this year appears to be that they now limit eligibility to US citizens only (in the past, permanent residents were eligible as well).

Best,

Vitaly Chernetsky
