Grants and Fellowships

  • AWM Travel Grants
    The Association for Women in Mathematics has administered the NSF-AWM Travel Grant Program for Women since 1988, supporting both travel to domestic or foreign research conferences and, more recently, longer-term visits with a mentor.

  • EWM Travel and Caring Grants
    The EWM Travel and Caring Grants are meant to (co-)fund travel and/or accommodation for participating and giving a talk at a significant conference in their field.

  • PIMS/BIRS Team Up!
    The PIMS/BIRS Team Up! program provides opportunities for in-person collaboration to teams of mathematical scientists, targeting researchers whose research program may have been disproportionately affected by various obstacles like family obligations, professional isolation, access to funding, and the COVID-19 pandemic. This includes, but need not be limited to, women, gender-expansive, and minoritized groups, Indigenous scholars, individuals with visible/invisible challenges and early-career researchers with limited resources.

  • Simons Emmy Noether Fellowship Program
    The Simons Emmy Noether Fellowship Program awarded annually and supported by the Simons Foundation, honours her legacy by supporting and encouraging early- and mid-career women and all under-represented groups in physics. These fellowships enable visiting scientists to spend up to a year in Perimeter’s thriving, multi-disciplinary community.
