Isabella Novik (born 1971)[1] is a mathematician who works at the University of Washington as the Robert R. & Elaine F. Phelps Professor in Mathematics. Her research concerns algebraic combinatorics and polyhedral combinatorics.[2]

Novik earned her Ph.D. from the Hebrew University of Jerusalem in 1999, under the supervision of Gil Kalai.[3] Her doctoral dissertation, Face Numbers of Polytopes and Manifolds, won the Haim Nessyahu Prize in Mathematics, awarded by the Israel Mathematical Union for the best annual doctoral dissertations in mathematics.[4]

She was an Alfred P. Sloan Research Fellow for 2006–2008,[5] and was elected as a member of the 2017 class of Fellows of the American Mathematical Society "for contributions to algebraic and geometric combinatorics".[6]
