The London Mathematical Society is pleased to announce the LMS Hardy Lecturer 2025 is Professor Emily Riehl (Johns Hopkins University).
Professor Riehl has established herself as a leading expert in higher category theory and has also developed an interest in connections with computer science such as homotopy type theory. She is an accomplished and enthusiastic expositor of mathematics at a variety of levels aimed at mathematicians as well as popular writing with articles in Scientific American and New Scientist. She also plays a leading role in broader engagement of mathematicians and other scientists from marginalized and discriminated against groups.
Professor Riehl will undertake a lecture tour of the UK in July and July 2025, which will include the Hardy Lecture at the Society Meeting on Friday 4 July in London.
The Hardy Lectureship was founded in 1967 in memory of G.H. Hardy in recognition of outstanding contribution to both mathematics and to the Society. The Hardy Lectureship is a lecture tour of the UK by a mathematician with a high reputation in research.
