AWM Research Symposium 2015

这笔赠款为妇女数学协会(AWM)组织的2015年AWM研究研讨会提供了部分资金，该研讨会将于2015年4月11日至12日在马里兰州学院公园的马里兰大学举行。该研讨会的目的是帮助增加妇女在学术界、政府和工业界对数学科学的参与。这是一系列相互关联的会议和研讨会的一部分，旨在建立持续的网络，鼓励研究合作，并在数学科学领域的女性中建立更强的社区感。这次会议预计将吸引来自全国各地的约200名与会者，其中包括许多处于职业生涯早期阶段的女性。虽然演讲者和受资助的参与者都是女性，但会议将向整个数学界开放，包括男性和女性。研讨会位于大华盛顿地区，也将为当地企业和政府机构提供一个独特的机会，让他们接触到一批有才华的研究生和新近获得博士学位的人。2015年的研讨会将包括四位杰出的女数学家的全体讲座、十三场关于广泛数学主题的特别会议、面向研究生和新近博士的海报会议，以及一场网络活动。全体演讲者是辛几何、调和分析、图论和小波领域的领军人物。与全体会谈同时举行的还有相关领域的特别会议。其他九个特别会议将涵盖范围广泛的主题，包括代数几何、数论、拓扑和几何、概率论和数学教育。其中一节将介绍EDGE计划中未被充分代表的少数族裔的工作。这类活动对于在该领域的妇女之间建立社区、减少孤立感以及建立新的研究和指导关系至关重要。此外，在这些活动上建立的联系导致了未来的演讲邀请，增加了对其他研究会议的参与，从而更好地融入了更广泛的数学界。欲了解更多信息，请访问：https://sites.google.com/site/awmmath/home/awm-research-symposium-2015.。

This grant provides partial funding for the AWM Research Symposium 2015, organized by the Association for Women in Mathematics (AWM), to be held April 11-12, 2015, at the University of Maryland in College Park, MD. The Symposium is aimed at helping to increase participation of women in the mathematical sciences in academia, government, and industry. It is part of a series of interconnected conferences and workshops designed to create ongoing networks, encourage research collaborations, and build a stronger sense of community among women in the mathematical sciences. The conference is expected to draw about 200 participants from all over the country, including many women in the early stages of their career. While the speakers and funded participants will all be women, the conference will be open to the whole mathematical community, both men and women. Located in the greater Washington area, the Symposium will also provide a unique opportunity for local businesses and government agencies to reach out to a talented pool of graduate students and recent PhD recipients.The 2015 Symposium will feature four plenary lectures by distinguished women mathematicians, thirteen special sessions on a broad spectrum of mathematical topics, poster sessions for graduate students and recent PhDs, and a networking event. The plenary speakers are leaders in the fields of symplectic geometry, harmonic analysis, graph theory, and wavelets. Accompanying the plenary talks are special sessions in related areas. Nine other special sessions will cover a wide range of topics including algebraic geometry, number theory, topology and geometry, probability theory, and mathematics education. One session will feature work by under-represented minorities from the EDGE program. Events of this kind are essential for building community among women in the field, decreasing the sense of isolation, and establishing new research and mentoring relations. In addition, connections made at these events lead to future speaking invitations, increased participation at other research conferences, and hence better integration into the broader mathematics community.
