Mathematics Research Communities

数学研究社区（MRC）计划是美国数学学会（AMS）的一个独特的国家计划，该计划使早期职业数学科学家参与以主题为重点的合作研究，并为他们提供来自各自领域领先学者的指导。 它的目标是培养下一代数学家和推进科学知识的前沿。 它通过创建早期职业数学家的研究群体来实现这些目标，这些研究群体将通过促进整个数学科学中重要主题的连贯研究计划的发展来维持他们。 参与者，谁是高级研究生或最近的博士学位，参加为期一年的经验，其中包括：在夏季密集的为期一周的会议，在此期间，参与者在选定的研究领域开放的问题工作; AMS特别会议在年度联合数学会议;支持协作旅行;和指导。 每年的主题由医疗辅助队主席委任的顾问委员会选出。 该奖项将在2020年至2022年的三年期间支持MRC计划。 在2020年和2021年，夏季会议每年将为约120名与会者提供服务，到2022年，与会者人数将增加到160人。 从2021年或2020年开始，该计划将包括至少一个MRC，专注于与商业，工业或政府相关的数学相关主题。 在将女性纳入MRC计划的基础上，AMS将继续努力招募性别、种族/民族、地理位置和雇主类型多样化的参与者群体。2020年，该奖项将支持五次MRC会议，AMS预计将在罗得岛西格林威治的一个会议中心举办。 他们的头衔是：（1）传染病动力学：多尺度生态模型;（2）计算几何和代数拓扑的组合应用;（3）度量空间中的分析;（4）多复变量中的新问题;（5）在干草堆中寻找针：使用组合学和线性代数的反问题方法。2021年和2022年MRC会议的主题将由MRC咨询委员会确定，该委员会评估数学和相关科学学者团队提交的提案。 2021年MRC的提案将于2019年9月提交，预计至少有一个主题将与商业，工业或政府相关。 这些会议将使高级和初级研究人员聚集在一个理想的环境中建立联系，预计与会者和组织者将建立长期的合作关系，并产生许多高质量的出版物作为这一经验的直接结果。 MRC计划的网站是http://www.ams.org/programs/research-communities/mrc.This奖，反映了NSF的法定使命，并被认为值得通过使用基金会的知识价值和更广泛的影响审查标准进行评估来支持。

The Mathematics Research Communities (MRC) program is a distinctive national program of the American Mathematical Society (AMS) that engages early-career mathematical scientists in topically-focused collaborative research and provides them with mentoring from leading scholars in their fields. Its goals are to train the next generation of mathematicians and to advance the frontiers of scientific knowledge. It pursues these goals by creating research cohorts of early-career mathematicians that will sustain them over time by fostering the development of coherent research programs on important topics throughout the mathematical sciences. The participants, who are advanced graduate students or recent PhDs, take part in a year-long experience that includes: an intensive one-week conference in the summer, during which the participants work on open problems in the chosen research areas; AMS Special Sessions at the annual Joint Mathematics Meetings; support for collaboration travel; and mentoring. Each year's topics are selected by an Advisory Board appointed by the AMS President. This award will support the MRC program over a three-year period from 2020 through 2022. In 2020 and 2021 the summer conferences will serve approximately 120 participants per year, with the number of participants increasing to 160 in 2022. Starting in 2021 or 2020, the program will include at least one MRC focused on a mathematically related topic of relevance in business, industry, or government. Building on its record of including women in the MRC program, the AMS will continue its effort to recruit groups of participants who are diverse in terms of gender, race/ethnicity, geographic location, and employer type.In 2020 this award will support five MRC conferences, which the AMS expects to host at a conference center in West Greenwich, Rhode Island. Their titles are: (1) Dynamics of Infectious Diseases: Ecological Models Across Multiple Scales; (2) Combinatorial Applications of Computational Geometry and Algebraic Topology; (3) Analysis in Metric Spaces; (4) New Problems in Several Complex Variables; and (5) Finding Needles in Haystacks: Approaches to Inverse Problems using Combinatorics and Linear Algebra. The topics for the MRC conferences in 2021 and 2022 will be determined by the MRC Advisory Board, which evaluates proposals submitted by teams of scholars in the mathematical and related sciences. Proposals for the 2021 MRCs are due in September 2019, with the expectation that at least one topic will be in an area of relevance in business, industry, or government. The conferences will bring together senior and junior researchers in an ideal environment to establish connections, and it is expected that participants and organizers will establish long-lasting collaborative relationships and produce many high-quality publications as a direct result of this experience.
