<p class="x_MsoNormal">The mission of the <a href="https://www.simonsfoundation.org/" target="_self" id="LPlnk272241" class="OWAAutoLink" previewremoved="true">Simons Foundation</a> is to advance the frontiers of research in mathematics and the basic sciences.
To that end, the foundation invites applications for its Simons Fellows Programs in both mathematics and theoretical physics.</p>
<p class="x_MsoNormal">Through the programs, the foundation will award grants of up to $100,000 to university faculty for up to a semester-long research leave from classroom teaching and administrative obligations with the aim of boosting their creativity and/or
provide intellectual stimulation. The goal of the program is to make it easier to take such leaves, or to extend sabbatical leaves by an extra half year.</p>
<p class="x_MsoNormal">To be eligible, applicants must have a teaching or administrative position at a U.S. or Canadian college or university through the term following the leave that is the applicant's primary position. In addition, applicants must have an
active current research program.</p>
<p class="x_MsoNormal">For complete program guidelines, information about previous fellowship recipients, an FAQ, and application instructions, see the Simons Foundation website.</p>
