Latinx in the Mathematical Sciences Conference 2018
About: On March 8-10, 2018, the Institute
for Pure and Applied Mathematics (IPAM) will host a conference
showcasing the achievements of Latinx in the mathematical sciences. The
goal of the conference is to encourage Latinx to pursue
careers in the mathematical sciences, to promote the advancement of
Latinx currently in the discipline, to showcase research being conducted
by Latinx at the forefront of their fields, and, finally, to build a
community around shared academic interests. The
conference is sponsored by the Mathematical Sciences Institutes
Diversity Initiative and will be held on the UCLA campus in Los Angeles,
CA.
