LLF supports STEM opportunities that connect aspiring scientists and engineers with Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory’s (LLNL) premier resources and mentors. Our STEM programs are focused on fellowships and research stipends aimed at fostering the academic and professional journey of undergraduate and graduate students, with a focus on those historically underrepresented in the field, low-income/financial need, and/or first-generation college students. Increasingly, we seek to place LLF Fellows with Lab teams engaged in the key research areas we fund – namely, climate resilience, neurodegenerative disease, and fusion innovation. LLF provides direct student funding, allowing more time for research, studies, and ultimate success in scientific careers, and supports fellows with assigned Lab mentors and access to LLNL facilities a
