The Midwest Topology Seminar for 2014 to 2017 is the continuation of a regional conference series in algebraic topology that meets three times per year and rotates between universities in the Midwest and Great Lakes areas. The next two meetings are at Indiana University-Purdue University Indianapolis (April 2014) and Northwestern University (Fall 2014). The Midwest Topology Seminar has been running continuously since the early 1970s, with at least one of the yearly meetings held in Chicago, the hub of the network. Algebraic topology has always been broadly construed to include homotopy theory, algebraic K-theory, geometric group theory, and high dimensional manifolds; more recently the series has explored connections to algebraic geometry, representation theory, number theory, low dimensional manifolds, and mathematical physics.The Midwest Topology Seminar is a long-standing, reliable, low-key, and low-cost way for participants to keep up with the field. The Midwest is a traditional and continuing center of algebraic topology; hence there is a strong source of local speakers. Programs are augmented with featured speakers from around the country. The audiences are always large and diversified, drawing faculty and graduate students from a broad range of institutions. The Midwest Topology Seminar serves as a nexus for a vibrant community of research mathematicians, optimizing the distribution of new ideas through the field, especially among early career research mathematicians and mathematicians away from the traditional centers of research. This award supports travel expenses for approximately twelve seminar participants, primarily graduate students and other active research mathematicians with limited means of support, per year.Conference web site: www.math.wayne.edu/~rrb/MTS/

2014年至2017年的中西部拓扑研讨会是代数拓扑区域会议系列的延续，每年召开三次，并在中西部和五大湖的大学之间轮换。接下来的两次会议是在印第安纳州普渡大学印第安纳波利斯（2014年4月）和西北大学（2014年秋季）。中西部拓扑研讨会自20世纪70年代初以来一直在持续举办，每年至少有一次会议在网络的中心芝加哥举行。代数拓扑一直被广泛地解释为包括同伦理论，代数K理论，几何群论，和高维流形;最近该系列已探索连接代数几何，表示论，数论，低维流形，和数学物理。中西部拓扑研讨会是一个长期的，可靠的，低调的，和低成本的方式，为参与者跟上该领域。中西部是一个传统的和持续的中心代数拓扑，因此有一个强大的来源，当地的发言者。节目增加了来自全国各地的特邀演讲者。观众总是庞大而多样化，吸引了来自广泛机构的教师和研究生。中西部拓扑研讨会作为一个充满活力的研究数学家社区的纽带，优化了新思想在该领域的分布，特别是在早期职业研究数学家和数学家远离传统的研究中心。 该奖项每年资助大约12名研讨会参与者的差旅费，主要是研究生和其他积极研究的数学家，支持手段有限。www.math.wayne.edu/~rrb/MTS/
