Travel Awards to Attend the Fifteenth Latin American Symposium on Mathematical Logic

该奖项为9名美国人提供旅行支持-研究人员和11位博士。美国大学的学生参加将于6月4日举行的第十五届拉丁美洲数学逻辑研讨会？2012年8月8日在哥伦比亚波哥大的安第斯山脉大学，拉丁美洲的一个主要逻辑中心。大多数战神资金的人的旅行支助非常有限，或没有其他手段。一年两次的拉丁美洲数理逻辑研讨会，首次在圣地亚哥，智利在1970年举行，发挥了核心作用的增长和活力的数理逻辑在拉丁美洲。虽然研究活动的水平和在该地区举行的具有国际声望的专业会议的数量继续增加，但拉丁美洲数理逻辑研讨会仍然是最大的泛美逻辑会议。 该计划包括当前非常感兴趣的领域，演讲者包括世界领先的专家。这项活动为美国和拉丁美洲的研究人员和学生之间的广泛互动提供了一个重要的平台，超越了已经建立的研究联系。增加北美和欧洲以外的逻辑的可见度和存在，特别是在拉丁美洲和亚洲，是符号逻辑协会的一个目标。的最高长期战略重点。

This award provides travel support to nine U.S.-based researchers and eleven Ph.D. students at U.S. universities to participate in the Fifteenth Latin American Symposium on Mathematical Logic, to be held June 4?8, 2012 at Universidad de los Andes in Bogota, Colombia, a major center of logic in Latin America. Most of those for whom funds ares ought have either very limited or no other means of travel support.The biannual Latin American Symposium on Mathematical Logic, first held in Santiago, Chile in 1970, has played a central role in the growth and vitality of mathematical logic in Latin America. While the level of research activity and the number of specialized conferences of international prestige that are held in the region continues to increase, the Latin American Symposium on Mathematical Logic remains the largest Pan-American logic meeting. The program includes areas of great current interest, and speakers include leading world experts.This event provides an important platform for extensive interaction between U.S. and Latin American researchers and students beyond already well-established research contacts. Increasing the visibility and presence of logic outside North America and Europe, particularly in Latin America and Asia, is one of the Association for Symbolic Logic?s highest long-term strategic priorities.
