The David Crighton Medal is a biennial prize established in 2002 by the Institute of Mathematics and its Applications (IMA) and the London Mathematical Society (LMS) for "for services both to mathematics and to the mathematical community". The holders are usually fellows of both the IMA and LMS. [1] [2]
The award is issued on odd-numbered years, with its partner IMA-LMS prize, the Christopher Zeeman Medal, issued on even-numbered years. [3]
The medal was first awarded in 2003 and was established in memory of David Crighton FRS (1942–2000) "for services both to mathematics and to the mathematical community". [1] [4]
