Submitter: Jason Hessels
Description: The NASA Hubble Fellowship Program (NHFP) recently named their 2025 awardees, with 24 fellowships granted out of the 650 received applications. NASA's full announcement can be read here: https://science.nasa.gov/missions/hubble/nasa-awards-astrophysics-postdoctoral-fellowships-for-2025/.

Fellows are named to one of three sub-categories corresponding to three broad scientific questions that NASA seeks to answer about the universe: "How does the universe work?" (Einstein Fellows); "How did we get here?" (Hubble Fellows); and "Are we alone?" (Sagan Fellows).

Among this prestigious cohort of fellows is Kenzie Nimmo, a former ASTRON/UvA PhD student who defended her thesis in 2022 https://www.astron.nl/dailyimage/main.php?date=20220922). Kenzie's project "From Glimmering Jewels to Cosmic Ubiquity: Unraveling the Origins of FRBs" will be hosted at Northwestern University, in Chicago.

Congratulations to Kenzie and all of the highly talented NHFP awardees!
