The Society for the Advancement of Chicanos and Native Americans in Science (SACNAS) will hold its 2014 National Conference in Los Angeles, California, October 16-18, 2014. The National Conference aims to present research from diverse disciplines, share advanced research and discoveries, interact with attendees, and mentor science students. This award will support participants at two scientific symposia. The session will consist of talks in topics of algebra, number theory, and combinatorics at a wide range of mathematical levels. Talks will be 30 minutes and will leave time for a closing question and answer period. One symposium will introduce accessible research topics for students with a post-calculus background, providing a wide range of interesting problems to motivate undergraduates to pursue further research and work in mathematics. The second symposium will provide current cutting-edge mathematical research done by mathematicians from underrepresented groups as well as provide a venue to meet and interact with researchers interested in mentoring underrepresented students in mathematics. The website for the SACNAS conference is http://sacnas.org/events/national-confThese scientific symposia sessions address a variety of broader impacts in the mathematical community. First, by organizing these sessions during one of the nations largest conferences for Hispanics and Native Americans, the symposia will reach students and professionals from traditionally underrepresented groups in academia. These participants will have the opportunity to see and contribute to current mathematical research presented at the 2014 SACNAS National Conference. In addition, conference participants will be able to hear from mathematicians who come from groups traditionally underrepresented in the mathematical sciences and from mathematicians who have successfully mentored and advised underrepresented students in numerous mathematical research projects. This will give participants an opportunity to hear about possible research projects, meet new mentors and/or advisers, and begin to build a research community beyond their institutions.

奇卡诺人和美国原住民科学促进会（SACNAS）将于2014年10月16日至18日在加州洛杉矶召开2014年全国会议。全国会议旨在展示来自不同学科的研究，分享先进的研究和发现，与与会者互动，并指导理科生。该奖项将支持两次科学研讨会的参与者。会议将包括代数，数论和组合在广泛的数学水平的主题演讲。讲座将持续30分钟，并留出最后的问答时间。一个专题讨论会将为具有后微积分背景的学生介绍可访问的研究主题，提供广泛的有趣问题，以激励本科生在数学方面进行进一步的研究和工作。第二次研讨会将提供目前由代表性不足的群体的数学家所做的前沿数学研究，并提供一个场所，与有兴趣指导代表性不足的数学学生的研究人员会面和互动。SACNAS会议的网站是http://sacnas.org/events/national-confThese科学专题讨论会，讨论数学界的各种广泛影响。首先，通过在全国最大的拉美裔和印第安人会议期间组织这些会议，专题讨论会将接触到学术界传统上代表性不足的群体的学生和专业人士。这些参与者将有机会在2014年SACNAS全国会议上看到并为当前的数学研究做出贡献。此外，与会者将能够听到来自传统上在数学科学中未被充分代表的群体的数学家，以及在众多数学研究项目中成功指导和建议未被充分代表的学生的数学家。这将使参与者有机会了解可能的研究项目，结识新的导师和/或顾问，并开始在他们的机构之外建立一个研究社区。
