It is with deep regret that the LMS has learned of the death of Professor Nicholas Higham FRS.

It is with great sadness that the LMS has learned that Dr Tony Gardiner passed away suddenly on 22 January. Tony was closely involved with the LMS for many years, including as a member of Council beginning in the 1990s, and particularly with the LMS Education Committee.

The London Mathematical Society administers two £6,000 travel awards funded by the Cecil King Memorial Foundation for early career mathematicians, to support a period of study or research abroad, typically for a period of three months. One Scholarship will be awarded to a mathematician in any area of mathematics and one to a mathematician whose research is applied in a discipline other than mathematics.

Application deadline: 14 January 2025 23:59 (GMT)

Applications are now invited for the 2024-25 round of LMS Early Career Fellowships. These fellowships are intended to support early career mathematicians in the transition between PhD and a postdoctoral position.

The LMS Hardy Lectureship is named after G.H. Hardy, former President of the Society and De Morgan Medallist. Originally awarded to a distinguished overseas mathematician in odd-numbered years.

The LMS is delighted to have launched a joint programme with the newly formed International Centre for Mathematics in Ukraine (ICMU).

The LMS Distinguished Visiting Fellowship Programme will allow mathematical scientists with recognised achievements in their disciplines to spend an period of time at the ICMU and give a series of lectures or a colloquium for the benefit of the Ukrainian mathematical community and students.
