MSRI / SLMath: Summer Research in Mathematics 2023 Extended Deadline

Priority Deadline: December 5, 2022
via MathPrograms.org


Applications received after December 5th will be reviewed on a rolling basis until program capacity is reached. 
 

MSRI/SLMath's Summer Research in Mathematics (SRiM) program provides space, funding, and the opportunity for in-person collaboration to small groups of mathematicians, especially women and gender-expansive individuals, whose ongoing research may have been disproportionately affected by various obstacles including family obligations, professional isolation, or access to funding. Through this effort, MSRI/SLMath aims to mitigate the obstacles faced by these groups, improve the odds of research project completion, and deepen their research experience.

Groups of two to six mathematicians with partial results on an established project are invited to apply for SRiM 2023. Through this effort, SLMath aims to mitigate the obstacles faced by these groups, improve the odds of research project completion, and deepen their research experience. See website for full details.

Apply via MathPrograms.org

The Mathematical Sciences Research Institute (MSRI) is becoming the Simons Laufer Mathematical Sciences Institute (SLMath) in 2022-23. (Learn more)

Program Eligibility

  • Groups of two to six mathematicians with partial results on an established project may submit an application to the program.
  • Each member of the group must have a PhD or advanced graduate standing in the mathematical sciences.
  • At least one team member must be US based.
  • Each group may apply to be in residence at MSRI for a minimum of two weeks.
  • All members of the group must be in residence for the full duration of the visit.
  • Applicants may only apply as a member of one research group.
  • The visits to MSRI/SLMath must take place between June 5, 2023 to July 14, 2023.
  • Research groups with faculty from Canadian universities may be invited to BIRS (either Banff or UBCO-Okanagan). UBCO visits must take place between June 5, 2023 and July 14, 2023. Visits to Banff are subject to availability of accommodation and meeting facilities.
  • Research groups with faculty from Mexican universities may be invited to UNAM, Cuernavaca. Visits for these groups must take place between May 8 and June 30, 2022.

Application Process


Applications are hosted on Math Programs and require: 
  • Project Description (not to exceed four pages) aimed at a broad mathematical audience
  • Statement on alignment with program goals (not to exceed two pages)
  • List of all members on the research team, including home institution, citizenship, year of PhD, current position, and gender identification
  • Biographical sketch (following NSF format) of no more than two pages for each team member
  • Length of visit and preferred dates
  • List of Mathematics Subject Classification Codes (primary and secondary)
  • List of keywords

Learn more about the application requirements, or download a program flyer for sharing with your department and colleagues.

Priority Deadline: December 5, 2022
via MathPrograms.org


Applications received after December 5th will be reviewed on a rolling basis until program capacity is reached. 

Selection Process


In choosing the groups, preference may be given to teams made up of a majority of U.S. citizens and Permanent Residents, teams whose members come from a variety of institutions, teams made up of members at various stages of their careers, and proposals related to core mathematics. The impact on women’s careers will be an important factor in making the final decisions.

Funding & Support:

  • Lodging in spacious and comfortable dorm apartments on the campus of UC Berkeley
  • All meals
  • Reimbursement of travel expenses to Berkeley
  • $1,000 per person for post-programmatic travel
  • MSRI / SLMath is pleased to be able to offer Childcare Grants to researchers with children under the age of 17 to allow full participation in our programs. These grants can be used for travel, lodging and meals for children and a caregiver. They can also be used for daycare, nanny, babysitters, and summer camps, either in Berkeley or at the member's home location.(Learn more)
  • Mathematicians who are spouses or partners of invited group members will be offered shared office space

For more information, please contact Christine Marshall, SLMath Program Manager, at coord@msri.org.

Support for the 2023 Summer Research in Mathematics program is provided by the National Science Foundation (NSF), the National Security Agency (NSA), Johnson Cha, and Priscilla Chou. MSRI / SLMath has been supported from its origins by the National Science Foundation, now joined by over 100 Academic Sponsor departments, by a range of private foundations, and by generous and farsighted individuals.
