Congratulations to Alain who has been awarded the 2025 LMS/IMA David Crighton Medal. The award recognises his deep and influential mathematical insights into mechanical and biological processes and materials, his support of early career mathematicians, and his contributions to the public understanding of mathematics and its applications.
This is a four-year, postdoctoral research fellowship from the Royal Society that aims to support the retention in STEM of researchers from underrepresented backgrounds. Fellowships will provide funding to conduct high-quality research and a comprehensive programme of mentoring, training and networking opportunities to support award holders in establishing a successful research career in the UK.
