The European Young Researchers Award

The European Young Researchers Award is granted since 2010 to researchers demonstrating outstanding research performance and leadership. It aims to inspire early stage researchers to incorporate a European dimension and perspective into their research. The Award is granted each year; in odd years, the prize is dedicated to PhD candidates, and in even years to post-doctoral fellows. The Award consists of a Certificate, waiving the participation fee to ESOF, a grant to cover travel and accommodation for the stay in the ESOF city and a two years’ free EuroScience membership. ESOF 2018 will be held in Toulouse from 9 to 14 July.

Eduard Čech Distinguished Visitor Programme

The programme has been established with the aim to significantly enhance the creative environment in the Institute of Mathematics by bring here highly distinguished mathematicians for prolonged periods. The Eduard Čech Distinguished Visitor for 2017 will be Prof. Giovanni P. Galdi from the University of Pittsburgh. For the details of the programme see the corresponding

Pavel Exner received the Neuron Award for Contribution to Science

Prof. Pavel Exner, researcher in the Institute of Nuclear Physics CAS and President of the European Mathematical Society received the Neuron Award for Contribution to Science. This prestigious award is designated to acknowledge and recognise top Czech scientists at home and abroad who have reached outstanding achievements in their field and as such can serve as role models and inspiration.

Prize of the Southmoravian Region awarded to František Neuman

Prof. František Neuman from the Brno Branch of the Institute of Mathematics CAS received the Prize of the Southmoravian Region for his contribution to science. The ceremony was held in the Slavkov Castle on 12 November 2016.

Embracing an ERA of Change

At the German National ERA Conference on 10 October 2015 in Berlin, the Commissioner for Research, Science and Innovation Carlos Moedas presented his vision of the 9th Framework Programme to come after Horizon 2020. The principal values should be Exellence, Openness and Impact.

Yves Meyer receives the Abel Prize 2017

The Norwegian Academy of Science and Letters has decided to award the Abel Prize for 2017 to Yves Meyer of the École normale supérieure Paris-Saclay, France “for his pivotal role in the development of the mathematical theory of wavelets”. Meyer's work has a relevance extending from theoretical areas of mathematics to the development of practical tools in computer and information science. As such it is a perfect example of the claim that work in pure mathematics often turns out to have important and useful real-world applications. Yves Meyer will receive the Abel Prize from His Majesty King Harald V at an award ceremony in Oslo on 23 May.

Neuron Impuls grants for Tomáš Vejchodský and Ondřej Kreml

Two young members of the Institute of Mathematics CAS received research grants from the Neuron Fund for Support of Science: Tomáš Vejchodský in the category Neuron Impuls for the study of Guaranteed bounds of eigenvalues and eigenfunctions of differential operators and Ondřej Kreml in the category Neuron Impuls Junior for the study of Mathematical analysis of hyperbolic conservation laws.
Through the Neuron Impuls grants, the Neuron Fund for Support of Science aims to support projects in basic and – in medicine – applied scientific research and, especially, young scientists working in the Czech Republic or successful Czech scientists returning from abroad to pursue their research in the Czech Republic.
