The '''Noether Lecture''' is an award and lecture series thatwhich honors women "who have made fundamental and sustained contributions to the mathematical sciences". The [[Association for Women in Mathematics]] (AWM) established the annual lectures in 1980 as the [[Emmy Noether]] Lectures, in honor of one of the leading mathematicians of her time. In 2013 it was renamed the AWM-AMS Noether Lecture and since 2015 is sponsored jointly with the [[American Mathematical Society]] (AMS). The recipient delivers the lecture at the yearly American [[Joint Mathematics Meetings]] held in January.<ref name=NoetherAWM>{{cite web |title=Noether Lecture |url=https://sites.google.com/site/awmmath/programs/noether-lectures |publisher=Association for Women in Mathematics |accessdate=19 August 2015}}</ref>

The '''ICM Emmy Noether Lecture''' is an additional lecture series sponsored by the [[International Mathematical Union]]. Beginning in 1994 an additional Emmy Noether Lecture was delivered at the [[International Congress of Mathematicians]] held every four years. In 2010 the lecture series was made permanent.<ref>{{cite web |title=ICM Emmy Noether Lecture |url=http://www.mathunion.org/activities/icm/emmy-noether-lecture/ |publisher=International Mathematical Union |accessdate=19 August 2015}}</ref>
