International Association of Mathematical Physics
The International Association of Mathematical Physics (IAMP) was founded in 1976 in order to promote research in mathematical physics. The Association invites both mathematicians and physicists (including students) interested in this goal to become members.
The Association sponsors a Congress every three years. The Association also publishes a Web site, as well as a news bulletin sent to members three times each year. The bulletin includes advertisements of positions in mathematical physics as well as announcements of other news and activities of the Association.
Membership supports the activities of the Association. One special advantage of membership is steep discounts on personal subscriptions to several journals and on certain books. These include Communications in Mathematical Physics and Letters in Mathematical Physics.

Henri Poincaré Prize
The Henri Poincaré Prize is sponsored by the Daniel Iagolnitzer Foundation.
The Prize was created in 1997 to recognize outstanding contributions in mathematical physics, and contributions which lay the groundwork for novel developments in this broad field. The Prize is also created to recognize and support young people of exceptional promise who have already made outstanding contributions to the field of mathematical physics. The prize is awarded every three years at the International Mathematical Physics Congress and in each case, is an award to three individuals (to be exact, the rules say approximately three allowing for exceptional circumstances, at the discretion of the prize committee). A list of laureates may be found on the IAMP website.
IAMP Early Career Award
The prize is awarded at the International Congress of Mathematical Physics (ICMP) in recognition of a single achievement in Mathematical Physics. The prize consists of the sum of 3000 Euro and is reserved for scientists whose age in years since birth on July 31 of the year of the Congress is less than 35.
