Proposals are invited from members and their departments to host the next LMS Invited Lectures Series in 2026. This lecture series consists of meetings held in the UK at which a single speaker gives a course of about ten expository lectures, examining some subject in depth, over a five-day period (Monday to Friday) during a University vacation. The meetings are residential and open to all interested. Funding of up to £6,000 is offered to the host department to support the Invited Lecturer’s costs and participants’ attendance at the lectures.
Proposals for the Invited Lectures 2026
Any member who would like to suggest a topic and lecturer and be prepared to organise the meeting at their own institution or a suitable conference centre can submit a proposal. For further details, please visit the Society’s website: www.lms.ac.uk/events/lectures/invited-lectures#IL%20Call
