How will we do this year?

Hopefully they award more awards this competition (as promised). 

Also hoping they are consistent with their scoring..

What committee did everyone apply to? 

Any repeat applicants here, like me?

Last year I applied to Committee 1, my score was recommended for funding but not enough funding to be awarded. This year, I changed the direction of my project and applied to Committee 2. Fingers crossed!

Committee 3. Third time. I came so, so close last time. I just hope it is not a "lottery" as I've heard a few people say.

Committee 3, first-timer to the postdoc cycle.

@bookmouse Thanks for sharing! Did you find it difficult to switch project directions? Did you have to find a new prospective supervisor?
