Professor Giuseppe Cannizzaro has been awarded a prestigious 2026 Philip Leverhulme Prize in recognition of his research in probability.

Giuseppe is one of 30 researchers honoured in this year鈥檚 awards, including five recipients in Mathematics and Statistics. The prizes recognise researchers whose work has already achieved international recognition and whose future research shows exceptional promise.

Giuseppe鈥檚 research brings together probability theory, statistical mechanics and stochastic analysis to understand the mathematics of randomness. He investigates how complex random systems behave at large scales and why common mathematical patterns emerge across different models.

Speaking to the Department about the award, Giuseppe said:

鈥淚 am thrilled and honoured to have received the Philip Leverhulme Prize and grateful both to the trustees for the support and to the department for the nomination. Thanks to the award, I will have the opportunity to expand my research agenda and enhance our understanding of statistical physics systems at and beyond the critical dimension.鈥�

The award follows Giuseppe鈥檚 receipt of the 2026 Rollo Davidson Prize for his advances in understanding scaling-critical two-dimensional stochastic systems, marking a year of significant recognition for his contributions to probability.
