LMS Emmy Noether Fellowships

The Emmy Noether Fellowships offer grants of between £2,000 and £10,000 per applicant to enhance the mathematical sciences research, broadly construed, of holders either re-establishing their research programme after returning from a major break associated with caring responsibilities or requiring support to maintain their research programme while dealing with significant ongoing caring responsibilities. In the context of this scheme, caring responsibilities are interpreted as looking after young children, or looking after a person – e.g. a family member, partner or friend – who needs help because of their illness, frailty, disability, mental health problem or addiction and cannot cope without this support. In order to be eligible, applicants must have a PhD in Mathematics or closely related subject and be affiliated with a UK University in an academic capacity. This scheme is also available to mathematicians who have recently reached the UK after fleeing their home country and are continuing their studies in a UK host institution. The Emmy Noether Fellowships are funded by a donation by Liber Stiftung (Liber Foundation).
