EPSRC/LMS MathFit call for proposals
The EPSRC/LMS MathFit initiative is entering its third year, and continues to
support high quality interdisciplinary research in the application of novel
mathematical techniques to problems in computer science through responsive
mode grants, visiting fellowships and summer schools and workshops.
MathFit summer schools and workshops are supported by the LMS and EPSRC,
which gives a particular flexibility to the format. Events have included
specialist research student training days attached to a regular conference,
invited lecture series by overseas experts and informal research workshops
on new interdisciplinary areas. Applications for MathFit summer schools
and workshops to take place in 1999 are now invited: the deadline for
receipt of applications is
***9 October 1998***
and decisions should be made by the end of 1998.
MathFit responsive mode grants and visiting fellowships are supported by
EPSRC and should be submitted through the usual EPSRC channels: there are
no closing dates. Visiting Fellowship applications to support transfer of
personnel between complementary departments in (different) UK Universities
are particularly welcomed. Your attention is also drawn to the EPSRC Fast
Track scheme for young investigators, to the possibility of applying for a
research grant to fund a research studentship and to the EPSRC Postdoctoral
fellowship scheme.

events, and how to apply for funding, can be found on the MathFit web pages
