The Ninth Annual Graduate Student Mini-conference in Computational Mathematics

该奖项支持于2018年2月17日至18日在南卡罗来纳大学哥伦比亚校区举行的第九届计算数学研究生小型会议。会议的网页是：http://imi.cas.sc.edu/events/ninth-annual-graduate-student-mini-conference-computational-mathematics/.这次会议将通过聚集在计算数学前沿工作的广泛的学生和研究人员来促进科学的进步。主题包括偏微分方程模型数值解的理论和实现的最新进展，用于但不限于材料科学、湍流、生物医学流动、气候模拟和数据丰富现象。该系列会议为不同文化背景的研究生和新近获得博士学位的学生提供了一个舒适的论坛，让他们展示自己的工作，了解最新进展，形成合作关系，并建立网络来推进他们的职业机会，这是一个独特的角色。第九届研究生年会将延续这一传统。会议组织者致力于支持研究生、新近的博士和来自代表性不足群体的研究人员的参与。组委会预计将有大约55人出席，其中包括1名高级全体演讲者和1名初级全体演讲者、30名研究生(10名来自南加州大学)及其导师(5名来自南加州大学)。会议包括2个45分钟的全体会议，大约16个15分钟的专题演讲和1个2个小时的讨论环节。特别值得一提的是，一场全体演讲将由阿贡国家实验室的一名资深计算科学家发表，另一场演讲将由南加州大学一名初级博士后研究员发表；所有贡献的演讲将由研究生进行，讨论环节将集中于研究生和博士后的职业发展。学生演讲者将根据他们的简历和咨询他们的导师关于他们的研究成果从与会者中挑选出来。

This awards supports "The Ninth Annual Graduate Student Mini-conference in Computational Mathematics", held at University of South Carolina at its Columbia campus on February 17-18, 2018. The conference webpage is at http://imi.cas.sc.edu/events/ninth-annual-graduate-student-mini-conference-computational-mathematics/. The conference will promote the progress of science by bringing together a wide group of students and researchers working at the frontier of computational mathematics. Topics include recent advances in the theory and implementation of numerical solutions to partial differential equation models for, but not limited to, materials science, turbulence, biomedical flows, climate simulation, and data rich phenomena. The conference series has established a unique role as a comfortable forum for culturally diverse graduate students and recent Ph.D.s to present their work, learn of recent advances, form collaborations, and network to advance their career opportunities. The Ninth Annual Graduate Student Mini-conference will continue this tradition. The conference organizers are committed to supporting the participation of graduate students, recent Ph.D.s, and researchers from underrepresented groups. The organizing committee anticipates approximately 55 participants in attendance, to include 1 senior and 1 junior plenary speakers, 30 graduate students (10 from USC), and their advisors (5 from USC). The conference consists of 2 forty-five-minute-long plenary talks, approximately 16 fifteen-minute-long contributed talks, and 1 two-hour-long discussion session. In particular, one plenary talk will be given by a senior computational scientist from Argonne National Laboratory, the other will be presented by a junior postdoc fellow at USC; all the contributed talks will be given by graduate students, and the discussion session will focus on the career development for graduate students and postdocs. The student speakers will be selected from attendees based on their CVs and by consulting with their advisors about their research achievements.
