2026 Google PhD Fellowship Program is opened and I have several questions if someone can please give me constructive answers. I want to apply but still confuse because this is my first year of phd and till now i do not have top publications but previously i had.

Do you know any person who is selected without research publications?

Project summary is just for 200 words. What is the selection criteria?
