Description
The London Mathematical Society (LMS), with support from the Heilbronn Institute for Mathematical Research and UKRI, funds research schools connecting mathematical research with users of mathematics. Schools combine training in Knowledge Exchange with the mathematics underpinning it, serving research students and postdoctoral researchers. They take place in the UK and support participation by research students from the UK and abroad.
The programme covers all areas of contemporary mathematics. It aims to introduce qualified research students to important, developing research areas and help establish them as future leaders in their research communities. Speakers are expected to be international leaders with relevant Knowledge Exchange experience. Proposals are assessed for mathematical significance, topicality, likely national and international demand, and alignment with the LMS mission.
