Current Developments in Mathematics Conference

这是一项申请部分资助的建议，以资助由哈佛大学和马萨诸塞州理工学院的丘成桐教授和其他成员举办的一系列数学最新发展会议。第一次会议将于2009年11月在哈佛大学科学中心大楼举行。这一系列的会议是著名的汇集优秀的发言人在其领域的前沿，以及吸引了大量的观众来自全国各地。数学家在美国东北部的一部分受益于这样的活动。他们来参与和相互交流，这是真正的跨学科活动。主题是广泛的，从数学物理计算应用数学。人们从欧洲和亚洲远道而来参加这次会议，对所有参与方来说都是富有成果的。申请资助的主要是来自全国各地的研究生和博士后研究员，其中许多是女学生和少数民族。一些研究生可以从演讲中获得足够的想法来写论文，他们可以就自己的研究课题与演讲者进行交流。

This is a proposal requesting partial funding for a series of the Current Developments in Mathematics conferences organized by Professor Shing-Tung Yau and other members of Harvard University and the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. The first of the three conference will be held at Harvard University in the Science Center building in November, 2009. This series of conferences is known for bringing together excellent speakers at the forefront of their field as well as attracting a large audience from all over the country.Mathematicians in the Northeast part of America benefit from such activities. They come to participate and communicate with each other, and it is truly interdisciplinary activity. The topics are wide-ranging, from mathematical physics to computing to applied mathematics. People come to this conference all the way from Europe and Asia, and it has been very fruitful for all parties involved. The applications for funding are primarily for graduate studentsand postdoctoral fellows who travel from all over the country and many are female students and minorities. Some graduate students can get enough ideas from the talks to write their theses, and they can communicate with the speakers on their research topics.
