The 2017 Graduate Student Topology and Geometry Conference

这一NSF奖项为将于2017年4月8日至4月9日在密歇根州立大学举行的第15届研究生拓扑和几何年会提供部分支持。它是专门针对研究生的，许多演讲都将由学生参与者进行。这次会议将代表一大批处于博士学位不同阶段的学生，并将为来自不同机构和地理区域的学生提供一个聚集在一起并进行互动的场所。它的目的是创造一个高度协作的环境，鼓励研究，并在研究人员职业生涯早期的特别关键时刻促进他们之间的持久联系。会议还将为学生提供一个场所，让他们了解知名高级领导人和早期职业教师的尖端研究。尤其是早期教师演讲者，将成为学生小组的一部分，旨在帮助他们从研究生院过渡到研究的前沿。这次会议的主要目的是让研究生有机会展示他们的研究成果。将特别注意确保有广泛的主题集合，以便新一代数学家意识到当前几何和拓扑学的前沿。为此，还将有著名全体演讲者Mark Behrens(圣母大学)、Daniel Calegari(芝加哥大学)、Karsten Grove(圣母大学)以及职业早期教员Renato Ghini Bettiol(宾夕法尼亚大学)、Adam Levine(普林斯顿大学)、Tye Lidman(北卡罗来纳州立大学)、Sara Maloni(布朗大学)、Jose Perea(密歇根州立大学)和Wout Van Limbeek(密歇根大学)进行演讲。这些将为早期职业研究人员提供与母校以外的专家亲自接触的机会，扩大和巩固数学科学家的网络。会议网址为https://math.msu.edu/gt/GSTGC2017/

This NSF award provides partial support for the 15th annual Graduate Student Topology and Geometry Conference, which will be held at Michigan State University on April 8-April 9, 2017. It is specifically aimed at graduate students, and many of the talks will be delivered by student participants. The conference will represent a large body of students in different stages of their Ph.D., and will provide a venue for students from a diverse collection of institutions and geographic regions to come together and interact. It aims to create a highly collaborative environment that will stimulate research and foster lasting connections between researchers at particularly crucial moments early in their careers. The conference will also provide a venue for students to hear about cutting edge research from established senior leaders and early career faculty. The early career faculty speakers, in particular, will be part of a panel for the students, intended to help bridge their transition from graduate school to the forefront of research. The principal goal for this conference is to give graduate students the opportunity to present their research. Particular attention will be paid to ensure that a broad collection of topics are represented, so that rising generations of mathematicians are aware of the current frontiers of geometry and topology. To this end, there will be also be talks by distinguished plenary speakers Mark Behrens (University of Notre Dame), Danny Calegari (University of Chicago), Karsten Grove (University of Notre Dame) and early career faculty Renato Ghini Bettiol (University of Pennsylvania), Adam Levine (Princeton University), Tye Lidman (North Carolina State University), Sara Maloni (Brown University), Jose Perea (Michigan State University), and Wouter Van Limbeek (University of Michigan). These will provide the opportunity for early career researchers to personally engage with experts outside of their home university, expanding and consolidating the network of mathematical scientists.
