Dr Travis Schedler

Dr Schedler wins Andre Lichnerowicz Prize in Poisson geometry at the "International Conference on Poisson Geometry in Mathematics and Physics."

Established in 2008, the André Lichnerowicz Prize is awarded biannually for notable contributions to Poisson geometry. Awards are made at the International Conference on Poisson Geometry in Mathematics and Physics. This year the conference was held at ETH Zurich and was the tenth in a series of international conferences.The prize is awarded to researchers who have completed their doctorates no more than eight years before the year that the Conference is held.

Dr Travis Schedler is a Senior Lecturer in Pure Mathematics at Imperial College. He joined the department in 2015. He studies noncommutative and Poisson algebras from (symplectic) geometric, representation-theoretic, and cohomological points of view. From 2008-2013 he was a fellow of the American Institute of Mathematics. Dr Schedler received NSF standard grants from 2009 to 2012 and from 2014 to 2017.
