The LMS Hardy Lectureship is named after G.H. Hardy, former President of the Society and De Morgan Medallist. Originally awarded to a distinguished overseas mathematician in odd-numbered years.
The LMS Hardy Lecturer visits the UK for a period of about two weeks, and gives the Hardy Lecture at a Society meeting, normally held in London in July. The LMS Hardy Lecturer also gives at least six other lectures, on different topics, at other venues in the UK; the schedule is decided by the LMS Society, Lectures and Meetings Committee in consultation with the LMS Hardy Lecturer, and is designed to allow as many UK mathematicians as possible to benefit from the LMS Hardy Lecturer's presence in the UK.
We are pleased to announce the LMS Hardy Lecturer 2025 is Professor Emily Riehl (Johns Hopkins University).
Dates confirmed for the Lectureship so far are as follows:
| Fri 20 June | Aberdeen |
| Mon 23 June | Manchester |
| Wed 25 June | Edinburgh |
| Fri 27 June | Cardiff |
| Mon 30 June | Cambridge |
| Wed 2 July | Birmingham |
| Fri 4 July | London - De Morgan House (Hardy Lecture) |
Full details on times, venue and registration will be added in due course.

Travel/Caring Grants to attend the Hardy Lectures.
Travel/Caring grants of up to £50 to support attending the Hardy Lectures, which are at universities on the Hardy Lecture Tour, were available to mathematicians who are based at neighbouring universities to those universities and would require financial support.
For future Hardy Lecture Tours, if you require support, please complete the application form as soon as you can and at least 3 working days before the Hardy Lecture you wish to attend. Please note that there are limited funds available and so grants may be awarded on a first-come, first-served basis.
