The AWM–Microsoft Research Prize in Algebra and Number Theory and is a prize given every other year by the
Association for Women in Mathematics to an outstanding young female researcher in
algebra or
number theory . It was funded in 2012 by
Microsoft Research and first issued in 2014.
Winners
Sophie Morel (2014), for her research in
number theory , particularly her contributions to the
Langlands program , an application of her results on weighted
cohomology , and a new proof of Brenti's combinatorial formula for
Kazhdan-Lusztig polynomials .
[1]
[2]
Lauren Williams (2016), for her research in
algebraic combinatorics , particularly her contributions on the totally nonnegative
Grassmannian , her work on
cluster algebras , and her proof (with Musiker and Schiffler) of the famous Laurent positivity conjecture.

Melanie Wood (2018), for her research in
number theory and
algebraic geometry , particularly her contributions in arithmetic statistics and
