This award supports US-based participants in the Adjoint School Research Week, held at the University of Strathclyde, Glasgow, UK over July 11–15, 2022. The Adjoint School 2022 provides mentorship and community for early-career researchers in applied category theory, bringing them together for fortnightly virtual collaboration from February to June, and then in person for the Adjoint School Research Week, followed by the International Conference on Applied Category Theory. Held annually, the Adjoint School is a student-led, international, hands-on research training program serving 16-20 new students each year, with previous participants returning as teaching assistants and organizers. Adjoint School projects center on using techniques in category theory -- a mathematical language of systems and relationships -- to solve practical problems in science and engineering, relevant to both academic and industry needs. At core, the school is designed around community-building, reflecting the strongly social nature of mathematics research. As part of this, the school is especially committed to advancing inclusivity, access, and diversity in the applied category theory research community, and in the mathematics community more broadly. In 2022, the Adjoint School comprises the following projects and mentors: Compositional Thermodynamics (Spencer Breiner, National Institute of Standards and Technologies, USA), Fuzzy Type Theory for Opinion Dynamics (Paige North, University of Pennsylvania, USA), A Compositional Theory of Timed and Probabilistic Processes (Nicoletta Sabadini, University of Insubria, Italy), and Algebraic Structures in Logic and Relations (Filippo Bonchi, University of Pisa, Italy). The program combines a five-month virtual collaboration component with an intensive in-person week, and gives students practice across all skills of the research process, including reading and discussing papers, informal presentations and collaboration, expository blog writing, conference talks, writing papers, and, where relevant, programming.

该奖项支持在毗邻学校研究周，在斯特拉斯克莱德，格拉斯哥，英国在7月11日至15日举行的大学美国的参与者，2022年。伴随学校2022为应用范畴理论的早期职业研究人员提供指导和社区，将他们聚集在一起，从2月到6月每两周进行一次虚拟合作，然后亲自参加伴随学校研究周，然后是应用范畴理论国际会议。伴随学校每年举办一次，是一个以学生为主导的，国际化的，动手研究培训计划，每年为16-20名新生提供服务，以前的参与者作为助教和组织者返回。毗邻学校的项目集中在使用范畴理论技术-系统和关系的数学语言-解决科学和工程中的实际问题，与学术和行业需求相关。学校的核心是围绕社区建设而设计，反映了数学研究的强烈社会性质。作为其中的一部分，学校特别致力于推进应用范畴理论研究社区和更广泛的数学社区的包容性，可访问性和多样性。于2022年，毗邻学校由以下项目及导师组成：组成热力学（Spencer Breiner，美国国家标准与技术研究所），意见动态的模糊类型理论（Paige North，宾夕法尼亚大学，美国），时间和概率过程的组成理论（Nicoletta Sabadini，因苏布里亚大学，意大利）和逻辑与关系中的代数结构（Filippo Bonchi，比萨大学，意大利）。该计划将为期五个月的虚拟协作部分与密集的面对面周相结合，并为学生提供研究过程中所有技能的练习，包括阅读和讨论论文，非正式演讲和协作，临时博客写作，会议会谈，撰写论文，以及相关的编程。更多细节可在www.example.com上找到http://adjointschool.com.This奖项反映了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。
