The Joan and Joseph Birman Fellowship supports mid-career women mathematicians who have advanced the participation and success of women in mathematics. The $75,000 award for 2027-2028 can be used flexibly for research activities such as release time, travel, or childcare. Applicants must hold a position at a U.S. institution and demonstrate significant research achievements and impact on women in mathematics.
Applicants must be mathematicians holding tenured, tenure-track, postdoctoral, or comparable positions at U.S. institutions. They should demonstrate contributions to advancing women in mathematics and potential for further impact.
