Morningside Medal

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Morningside Medal of Mathematics (Chinese: 晨兴数学奖) is awarded to exceptional mathematicians of Chinese descent under the age of forty-five for their seminal achievements in mathematics and applied mathematics. The winners of the Morningside Medal of Mathematics are traditionally announced at the opening ceremony of the triennial International Congress of Chinese Mathematicians. Each Morningside Medalist receives a certificate, a medal, and cash award of US$25,000 for a gold medal, or US$10,000 for a silver medal.[1]

In 2013 Yitang Zhang was awarded the Morningside Special Achievement Award in Mathematics for his proof of the restricted twin prime conjecture.[2]
