Dear colleagues,

I would like to inform you about the  IMU-Simons Foundation Travel Fellowship:
IMU-Simons Travel Fellowship Program supports collaborative research  
visits of mathematicians working in the developing world to a center  
of excellence in any part of the world for collaborative research in  
mathematics.

This grant will support mathematicians working in a developing or  
economically disadvantaged country (as determined by the IMU-CDC) to  
travel to a center of excellence in any part of the world for  
collaborative research (in mathematics).
In exceptional cases, the funds can also be used by mathematicians  
from developed countries to visit centers of research in developing  
countries to do collaborative research with mathematicians working  
there.

The program is administered by IMU- CDC and funded by the Simons Foundation.

Basic Requirements:
Applicants must hold a PhD in Mathematics,
be based in a developing country and
be employed as a faculty member of a university or equivalent institution
Additional Requirements:
The applicant should already have established contact with a  
mathematician in the host institution and should have a definite  
research plan which must be submitted, along with the curriculum vitae  
of both mathematicians at the time of applying for this grant.
The host institution should cover all local living expenses like  
accommodation and boarding.
The applicant should have been granted appropriate leave of absence  
from his/her home institution which will cover the period of the visit.
Minimal length of a visit is one month.
All applications should, besides the online application form, contain  
all of the following:
Curriculum Vitae (CV) including a selected list of publications (max.  
3 pages),
a detailed research program including expected interaction with local  
mathematicians, Ph.D. students, etc. (minimum 100 words and including  
general aim and schedule of research visit),
a formal letter of invitation from the host institution which clearly  
specifies the period of the visit as well as the extent of its  
financial commitment. (It is expected that the host institution at  
least completely covers all local living expenses like accommodation  
and boarding). This letter should be send by the host institution by  
email to: imu-simons-travel-fellowship en mathunion.org

Financial Support:
The travel grant under this scheme will completely cover the travel  
costs from the place of work of the applicant to that of the host to  
the extent of economy class airfare and surface (public) transport,  
all visa fees as well as travel and health insurance charges up to USD  
5,000.

You can also find other grants and funding possibilities for  
mathematicians from developing countries and economically  
disadvantages countries.

Please do not hesitate to contact me in case of any questions  
regarding this or any other CDC grants.

Best wishes,

Lena Koch
