Columbia sent a message on this topic just now; an excerpt is below:
“As hundreds of thousands of people are being forced from their homes, pouring into neighboring countries and nations across Europe, we, as an institution of learning, will expand the initiative we put in place for students and scholars displaced by the crisis in Afghanistan to include those seeking refuge from the war in Ukraine. We are eager to welcome these students and scholars to our campuses.”
Important to note – men between 18 and 60 are not currently permitted to leave Ukraine.

Will this leads to an influx of academics from Russia and Ukraine such that the new grads will be at a disadvantage on the job market? I heard sometime before (maybe in the 80s?), a lot of established Russian mathematicians came to the US, and left many new grads jobless. There is no way a new grad can compete with established mathematicians in terms of publication record.
3 March, 2022 at 3:00 pm
Yanky Landau
As a grad student myself (albeit in physics, not math) this does resonate with me. However, my framing for this is that Putin upended global stability; it happened and that’s that. The cost for some people will be their lives, for some their families, for some financial hardships that will cripple their entire lives, and for some a decreased probability in getting their first choice of job. I am very happy that I am only in the final category

I understand she chose to teach math to underprivileged children through Teach For Ukraine in her city and was killed in a missile attack while distributing aid. A pic of her shows her in a t-shirt on which was printed “Education lights a fire” from William Butler Yeats: “Education is not the filling of a pail, but the lighting of a fire.” (History is repeating itself. The Scottish Cafe is in Lviv, which was Lwow, Poland, during and before WW II. Most of the Lwow school of mathematicians who authored The Scottish Book were either killed or emigrated to the U.S. War has no favorites.)

This is another Brazilian initiative for academics from Mathematical Sciences displaced (or in serious danger) by any war (not only Ukraine).
The Institute of Mathematics, Statistics and Scientific Computing (IMECC) at the University of Campinas (Unicamp) invites researchers in the Mathematical Sciences from countries involved in the conflict in Ukraine and other war-affected countries to apply for the Researchers at Risk Initiative, by the Sao Paulo Research Foundation (Fapesp):
https://fapesp.br/15402/initiative-researchers-at-risk
The scheme will cover scientific stays for 12+ months at any university in the state of Sao Paulo, as well as travel costs, under the following modalities:
— Visiting Researcher Award (PV), granted initially for up to 12 months, which may be reevaluated and extended at Fapesp’s discretion, under exceptional circumstances. Guidelines for the submission and selection of PV proposals are available at: https://fapesp.br/index.php/en/visiting
— Post-Doctoral Fellowship lasting up to 24 months, which may be extended. Guidelines for the submission and selection of Post-Doctoral Fellowships are available at: https://fapesp.br/en/postdoc
Applications must be sponsored by a local supervisor/host researcher; links to our established research groups can be found here:
https://www.ime.unicamp.br/en/research
Tentative applicants may contact our Research Coordinator at IMECC, Professor Marcelo Terra Cunha, at pqimecc@unicamp.br for further information, as well as assistance in matching with our research groups.
Furthermore, if no immediate collaboration can be locally established, we may assist in sharing individual profiles among groups in other Sao Paulo universities.
The call is currently open and applications will be processed as they are received, for expedited implementation, until the scheme’s closure on August 30th, 2022.
This is an equal opportunity call, and IMECC particularly welcomes applications from women and underrepresented groups in the Mathematical Sciences, regardless of religion, marital/maternity status, or migratory situation.
Please forward this message to any relevant persons or forums.
Yours sincerely,
Prof. Marcelo Terra Cunha
Research Coordinator | IMECC-Unicamp
