2020 African Diaspora Joint Mathematics Workshops (ADJOINT)

该奖项将支持将于2020年6月15日至26日在线举行的2020年非洲侨民联合数学研讨会（ADJOINT）。数学科学研究所（MSRI）开发了ADJOINT计划，为美国数学科学家提供研究合作的机会，特别是那些来自非洲裔美国人社区的科学家，他们将与研究领导人一起在各种研究项目上进行小组合作。ADJOINT的基本目标是通过催化合作研究项目，创造正式的导师机会，以及促进网络活动，希望创造一种归属感，以提高参与者的职业生涯。将鼓励研究小组的成员通过规划和参与下一年及以后的研究活动来建立ADJOINT的经验。在各个领域拥有黑人研究活跃的数学科学家的核心，富有成效的群体将刺激这个社区在这些领域的进一步参与，从而刺激整个领域。在此期间，参与者将在由4-5名参与者组成的小组中进行紧张的工作，并由一位受人尊敬的非裔美国数学科学家领导，该科学家拥有完善的研究计划。此外，研究人员将参加专业发展活动和每周一次的系列座谈会。由于COVID-19疫情，二零二零年的研究小组将与MSRI提供的材料和技术支持进行虚拟合作。夏季结束后，MSRI将为研究人员提供必要的支持，以便他们（在安全的情况下）与团队成员会面，并进一步推进他们的研究议程，参加和组织会议以展示结果，并成为研究和职业导师网络的一部分。此外，在未来的某个日期（可能是2021年夏天），MSRI将在MSRI位于加利福尼亚州伯克利的设施举办为期一周的现场聚会，以便合作者之间进行面对面的互动，并巩固参与者之间的社区意识。有关ADJOINT计划的更多信息可以在www.example.com上找到https://www.msri.org/web/msri/scientific/adjoint.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。

This award will support the 2020 African Diaspora Joint Mathematics Workshop (ADJOINT) to be held online from June 15 – 26, 2020. The Mathematical Sciences Research Institute (MSRI) developed the ADJOINT program to provide opportunities for research collaboration to U.S. mathematical scientists, especially those from the African American community, who will work in small groups with research leaders on various research projects. The underlying goal of ADJOINT in to enhance the careers of its participants by catalyzing collaborative research projects, by creating formal mentorship opportunities, and by facilitating networking activities in the hope of creating a sense of belonging to a community of peers. The members of the research groups will be encouraged to build on the ADJOINT experience by planning and participating in research activities in the following year and beyond. Having core, productive groups of black research-active mathematical scientists in various fields will stimulate further participation by this community in these fields, and thus stimulate the fields as a whole.For two weeks in the summer of 2020, five research groups will participate in the ADJOINT program. During that time, participants will be working intensely in small groups comprised of 4-5 participants and led by a respected African American mathematical scientist with a well-established research program. Additionally, researchers will participate in professional development activities and a weekly colloquium series. Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the 2020 research groups will collaborate virtually with materials and technical support provided by MSRI. After the summer, MSRI will provide researchers with the necessary support to travel (when it is safe to do so) to meet with their team members and proceed further with their research agenda, to attend and organize conferences to present results, and to become part of a network of research and career mentors. Furthermore, at a future date (possibly summer 2021) MSRI will host a one-week reunion onsite at MSRI’s facilities in Berkeley, CA to allow for in-person interaction between collaborators and to consolidate the sense of community among participants.
