Anyone from 187 Mol & Cell bio hear back?

[ChessChz]

Did anyone get the award in the first application?

I didn't apply on my Phd's first year because I didn't have a first author publication.. and now it's all or nothing..

 

[Tararizer]

Are people getting their rankings too, or just the notifications of results?  We got rankings last year, but I don't see any this year.

Also, congrats to everyone who won

[ParisMashouri]

My subject code is 5504 and propose field is animal physiology and metabolism. Are these the "committees" everyone is talking about?

I'm in the same boat here. Fingers crossed for both of us!

For those who's access to the site is denied, have you had any luck contacting NSERC to get it sorted?

Got it on my first application! At the time of application, I didn't have any journal publications. Only two submitted articles.

Glad to know I'm not alone!  Good luck to us!

I'm on 198 (Comp.Sci.), which I'm guessing is super competitive (like everything in CS), so I'm likely not getting it... but hoping I'm wrong

No ranking yet, but last year it was published later

Committee 179 (chemistry), still nothing. Congrats to everyone who got an award, and best of luck next time for those who didn't (don't give up!!).

Edit: should say, good luck to those who can apply next year. For those who can't, don't let an award define your success

You'd really think that for such a large organization they'd be able to automate the results. 

Any comp sci people should write that as a proposal, "I will fix your crap website and stop giving grad students heart attacks"

I did! I had two publications (one as a second author and one as a third author), and had my one as a first-author submitted. I didn't think I would get it since I didn't get any major scholarships beforehand and from people at my school who have gotten it had either a CGS-M or OGS before getting PGSD/CGSD

For people who have gotten their results: does the date under Modified in your personal folder change to today?

Anyone in math? Committee 177

Good to know! Mine is still showing the 23rd. That probably means you'll hear before me.

same!

To those that got the letter (rejection or acceptance), just curious: does your personal identification PIN that you got through NSERC when you were applying match the one that you got on your decision letter? For me it's different and I just noticed it.

For me it's different and I just noticed it since I somehow remembered my personal PIN from applying.

I think I remember something about those numbers being different to our NSERC personal pins last year, like they were some kind of application or result number?

Just got my rejection letter but I applied to animal physiology and metabolism. My rejection letter had committee 195 on it (plant and animal biology). Not sure if I somehow messed that up......or was sent to the wrong committee somehow?? 

I had 2 first author pubs, 4 co-author pubs, 4 conference abstracts, and an OGS on my application when I applied.
