The Great Lakes Mathematical Physics (GLaMP) meetings are annual three-day research conferences promoting scientific progress and exchange among researchers working in mathematical physics. This award supports participation in GLaMP 2020 to be held June 24-26, 2020 at Oberlin College and GLaMP 2021 to be held June 25-27, 2021 (dates tentative) at Michigan State University. Mathematical physics is one of the oldest scientific disciplines and is very active worldwide, with researchers working in both mathematics and physics departments. Although there are many mathematical physicists working in the United States, there are few regular conferences representing the field in this country. The GLaMP conferences meet the need for a regular annual meeting in mathematical physics in the US, specifically in the greater Midwest. The main goals of the meetings are: (1) to provide a forum for young researchers in mathematical physics in the US to present their research, as well as to foster their professional development; (2) to maintain communication and collaboration among scientists working in the field of mathematical physics throughout the United States; (3) to encourage participation by women and under-represented groups in the field of mathematical physics; and (4) to raise the research profile of mathematical physics within the mathematical and scientific community of the United States. Besides its location, the distinguishing feature of the GLaMP meeting is its emphasis on promoting and showcasing the scientific work of young researchers (graduate and advanced undergraduate students, post-doctoral researchers, and early-career faculty) in the field. The GLaMP 2020 and 2021 conferences each consist of a three-lecture mini-course (one lecture each day) on a topic of current high-profile interest, five invited 50-minute plenary talks from leading researchers in their respective fields, and sessions of short 20-minute contributed talks given primarily by young researchers. To increase the visibility and participation by women and under-represented groups in mathematics, the organizers strive to have at least half of the invited plenary talks (including the mini course) be given by researchers from these under-represented groups. As in the past, the organizers will hold the meetings in cooperation with the Association for Women in Mathematics (AWM). To further highlight the focus of the meeting on the support of young researchers in their professional development, each GLaMP conference features a roundtable discussion on early-career development. The panel of the round table consists of researchers representing both careers in different types of academic institutions (for instance, private and public research universities, four-year liberal arts colleges), as well as in industry.

五大湖数学物理(GLAMP)会议是一年一度的为期三天的研究会议，旨在促进科学进步和数学物理研究人员之间的交流。该奖项支持参加2020年6月24-26日在奥伯林学院举行的GAMP 2020和2021年6月25-27日在密歇根州立大学举行的GAMP 2021(暂定日期)。数学物理是最古老的科学学科之一，在世界范围内非常活跃，研究人员在数学系和物理系工作。虽然有许多数学物理学家在美国工作，但代表这个领域的定期会议在这个国家很少。GLAMP会议满足了美国数学物理年会的需要，特别是在大中西部地区。这些会议的主要目标是：(1)为美国数学物理领域的年轻研究人员提供一个论坛，介绍他们的研究成果，并促进他们的专业发展；(2)保持全美数学物理领域科学家之间的交流与合作；(3)鼓励妇女和代表不足的团体参与数学物理领域；以及(4)提高美国数学和科学界对数学物理的研究形象。除了地点之外，GLAMP会议的特点是强调促进和展示年轻研究人员(研究生和高级本科生、博士后研究人员和职业生涯早期教师)在该领域的科学工作。GAMP 2020和2021年的会议都包括一个关于当前备受瞩目的话题的三个讲座的迷你课程(每天一个讲座)，五个受邀的各自领域领先研究人员50分钟的全体演讲，以及主要由年轻研究人员做的20分钟的简短演讲。为了提高妇女和代表性不足群体在数学方面的知名度和参与度，组织者争取邀请的全体讲座(包括迷你课程)至少有一半由这些代表性不足群体的研究人员讲授。与以往一样，组织者将与妇女数学协会(AWM)合作举行会议。为了进一步突出会议的重点是支持青年研究人员的专业发展，每一次GLAMP会议都有一个关于早期职业发展的圆桌讨论。圆桌会议小组由代表不同类型学术机构(例如私立和公立研究型大学、四年制文理学院)以及工业界职业的研究人员组成。有关会议的详细信息将在会议网站上公布：https://sites.google.com/msu.edu/glamp2020(针对GLAMP 2020)和https://sites.google.com/msu.edu/glamp2021(针对GAMP 2021)。这一奖项反映了美国国家科学基金会的法定使命，并通过使用基金会的智力优势和更广泛的影响审查标准进行评估，被认为值得支持。
