LMS-IMA David Crighton Award Lecture and Medal Presentation 2026
The LMS-IMA David Crighton Award is awarded to an eminent mathematician for services both to mathematics and to the mathematical community.  It is a joint award of the Institute of Mathematics and its Applications and the London Mathematical Society.

Professor Alain Goriely FRS was awarded the 2025 LMS-IMA Crighton Award in recognition of his deep and influential mathematical insights into mechanical and biological processes and materials, for his support of early career mathematicians, and his contributions to the public understanding of mathematics and its applications.

Professor Goriely will be presented with the Medal at a ceremony, which will take place at The Royal Society. The ceremony and talk, given by Professor Goriely, will be held in the Kohn Centre/Marble Hall and will be followed by a buffet reception.
