Eisenbud Professors

In 2007, James Simons announced a gift of $5 million from the Simons Foundation to form the Eisenbud Endowment. The income is used to attract key senior researchers to spend a substantial period, typically a semester, at MSRI. The individuals on this page were partially supported by this endowment.
