Jeffery Williams Prize
The Jeffery-Williams Prize ( English Jeffery-Williams Prize ) of the Canadian Mathematical Society is a prize awarded annually since 1968 for outstanding mathematical research. It is named after the company’s former president Ralph Jeffery (1889–1975) and its former treasurer Lloyd Williams (1888–1976). The award winner will give a lecture at the society's congress and will receive an individually made Inuit sculpture made of soapstone .
