This award supports the Young Mathematicians Conference (YMC) to be held at Ohio State University annually over a three year period. YMC provides a venue for undergraduate students to present and disseminate the results of their research, discuss mathematics with their peers and with senior researchers, and receive serious recognition of their achievements. Besides dissemination of undergraduate research activity in mathematics and facilitating exchange of ideas, another primary mission of YMC is to inspire and encourage students, particularly women and traditionally underrepresented groups, to pursue mathematics as a career. Each July, student researchers submit abstracts of their research projects, which are then judged and ranked by a panel of 40-70 faculty reviewers; the top ranked students, and their mentors, are invited to participate to YMC. The conference takes place during a weekend in August, from Friday noon until Sunday at noon. Besides the student talks (about 45, running in three parallel sessions) and a poster session, there are three plenary lectures delivered by world class mathematicians, aimed to introduce students to topics related to high impact, innovative research of current interest; videos of their talks are posted online. Representatives from about seven graduate schools introduce themselves and present their departments on Friday evening. A Graduate School Orientation event is held on Sunday morning where the Graduate Representatives answer the students' questions. Also on Sunday morning there is a Mentors' Breakfast where the mentors exchange ideas and information on undergraduate research. At all stages of preparation of the conference, the organizers seek advice, and then report back to the YMC Advisory Board.

该奖项支持青年数学家大会（YMC）在俄亥俄州立大学举行，为期三年，每年一次。青年会为本科生提供了一个展示和传播他们的研究成果的场所，与他们的同龄人和资深研究人员讨论数学，并获得认真的认可。除了传播本科生的数学研究活动和促进思想交流外，青年会的另一项主要使命是激励和鼓励学生，特别是女性和传统上未被充分代表的群体，以数学为职业。每年7月，学生研究人员提交他们的研究项目摘要，然后由40-70名教师评审员组成的小组进行评判和排名；排名第一的学生和他们的导师将被邀请参加青年会。会议在八月的一个周末举行，从周五中午到周日中午。除了学生讲座（约45场，分三期进行）和海报讲座外，还有三场由世界一流数学家主持的全体讲座，旨在向学生介绍与当前感兴趣的高影响力创新研究相关的主题；他们的谈话视频被发布在网上。周五晚上，来自大约七所研究生院的代表进行了自我介绍并介绍了他们的院系。研究生院的迎新活动在周日上午举行，研究生代表会回答学生的问题。此外，周日上午还有导师早餐，导师们在那里交换关于本科生研究的想法和信息。在会议筹备的所有阶段，组织者都会寻求建议，然后向yc顾问委员会报告。
