Eight new Simons Emmy Noether Fellows are ready to make waves

This year’s batch of faculty-stream Emmy Noether Fellows are exemplars of the best physics has to offer, grappling with big questions from quantum to cosmos.

Perimeter Institute is pleased to announce the names of eight brilliant scientists who have won spots in the 2024 Simons Emmy Noether Fellowship Program.

The program offers support for talented women in physics, helping them jumpstart their burgeoning careers and pursue cutting-edge research. The winning fellows make extended visits to Perimeter, work and collaborate with PI researchers, and set aside their usual administrative and teaching duties to advance their research.

The program is named for an exceptional twentieth century physicist, Emmy Noether, whose work earned her a place alongside last century’s greats like Einstein, Bohr, and Curie.

This year’s fellows have expertise in wide-ranging fields, including quantum matter, holography, astrophysics, and particle physics.

The 2024 Simons Emmy Noether Fellows are:

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Applications for the 2025 fellowships will open later this fall. Keep an eye on this page for new updates.

The Simons Emmy Noether Fellowship Program is generously supported by the Simons Foundation.
 

About PI

Perimeter Institute is the world’s largest research hub devoted to theoretical physics. The independent Institute was founded in 1999 to foster breakthroughs in the fundamental understanding of our universe, from the smallest particles to the entire cosmos. Research at Perimeter is motivated by the understanding that fundamental science advances human knowledge and catalyzes innovation, and that today’s theoretical physics is tomorrow’s technology. Located in the Region of Waterloo, the not-for-profit Institute is a unique public-private endeavour, including the Governments of Ontario and Canada, that enables cutting-edge research, trains the next generation of scientific pioneers, and shares the power of physics through award-winning educational outreach and public engagement.
