		<description>&lt;p&gt;Higher-ed math departments, take note: Federal funds for fellowships are available once again through the Graduate Assistance in Areas of National Need (GAANN), which opened its &lt;a href=&quot;https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/2024/04/24/2024-08771/applications-for-new-awards-graduate-assistance-in-areas-of-national-need-gaann&quot;&gt;application process&lt;/a&gt; on April 24.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&amp;ldquo;The GAANN Program provides grants to academic departments and programs of institutions of higher education (IHEs) to support graduate fellowships for students with excellent academic records in their previous programs of study who demonstrate financial need and plan to pursue the highest degree available in their course of study at the institution,&amp;rdquo; according to the program website. Grants range from &lt;span&gt;$&lt;/span&gt;100,000 to &lt;span&gt;$&lt;/span&gt;750,000.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&amp;ldquo;These grants provide substantial, need-based, fellowships to US citizens from underrepresented groups and have been used both to increase the participation of minority students in our programs and also to the increase the participation of US women in math,&amp;rdquo; said Karen Saxe, AMS senior vice president, government relations. As mathematics, statistics, and biostatistics are critical to developments in the emerging scientific landscape, there is a demonstrated need for more professionals with this training.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;The University of Chicago was the last recipient of GAANN funds, in 2016. Prior to then, math was an area of national need for many years, as was physics, Saxe explained. &amp;ldquo;To maintain global leadership in these areas, we must have paths for training our own citizens. The GAANN program offers one such path that has proved successful.&amp;rdquo;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&amp;ldquo;I&amp;rsquo;m thrilled to see that departments in the mathematical sciences are once again&amp;nbsp;eligible for the GAANN Program,&amp;rdquo; said Judy Walker, University of Nebraska-Lincoln professor and member, AMS Board of Trustees. &amp;ldquo;I received a fellowship through my department&amp;#39;s GAANN award when I was a PhD student and it had a profound effect on my educational experience.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&amp;ldquo;I strongly encourage graduate programs to consider submitting a proposal.&amp;rdquo;&lt;/p&gt;

		<description>&lt;p&gt;Avi Wigderson, Herbert H. Maass Professor in the School of Mathematics, Institute for Advanced Study (IAS), has received the 2023 ACM A.M. Turing Award&amp;nbsp;for foundational contributions to the theory of computation, including reshaping our understanding of the role of randomness in computation, and for his decades of intellectual leadership in theoretical computer science, announced the Association for Computing Machinery&amp;nbsp;(ACM).&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://mathscinet.ams.org/mathscinet/mrauthorId/182810&quot;&gt;Wigderson&lt;/a&gt; is a leading figure in computational complexity theory, algorithms and optimization, randomness and cryptography, parallel and distributed computation, combinatorics, and graph theory, as well as connections between theoretical computer science and mathematics and science.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;figure class=&quot;pull-left&quot; style=&quot;max-width:240px; margin-left:10px&quot;&gt;&lt;img alt=&quot;Avi Wigderson portrait&quot; class=&quot;img-responsive&quot; src=&quot;/images/Wigderson-portrait.jpg&quot; /&gt;
&lt;figcaption class=&quot;text-center&quot; style=&quot; margin-left:0px;&quot;&gt;Avi Wigderson&lt;/figcaption&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&amp;ldquo;It&amp;rsquo;s important to point out that Avi Wigderson also received the Abel Prize, which is considered the most important honor for lifetime achievements in the field of mathematics,&amp;rdquo; said ACM President Yannis Ioannidis in a press release. &amp;ldquo;Being selected for the ACM A.M. Turing Award is a fitting follow-up&amp;mdash;as mathematics is foundational to computer science and Wigderson&amp;rsquo;s work has connected a wide range of mathematical sub-areas to theoretical computer science.&amp;rdquo;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&amp;quot;I am excited that the ACM has again recognized with this award the theory of computation community, which has contributed so much to computing practice and technology,&amp;quot; Wigderson said in a press release. &amp;quot;I feel lucky to be part of this extremely dynamic community, whose fundamental goals have deep conceptual, intellectual, and scientific meaning, well beyond practical motivations. My four decades in this field have been a continuous joyride, with fun problems, brilliant researchers, and many students, postdocs, and collaborators who have become close friends.&amp;quot;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Prior to joining the IAS faculty, Wigderson held academic appointments at the University of California, Berkeley; IBM Research, San Jose; Mathematical Sciences Research Institute, Berkeley; Princeton University; and the Hebrew University of Jerusalem. He has received such awards as the Rolf Nevanlinna Prize (1994); Levi L. Conant Prize (2008); G&amp;ouml;del Prize (2009); Donald E. Knuth Prize (2019); Abel Prize (2021); and&amp;nbsp;Edsger W. Dijkstra Prize in Distributed Computing (2023). Wigderson is currently a Fellow of the ACM and a member of the American Academy of Arts and Sciences and the National Academy of Sciences.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;The ACM A.M. Turing Award, often referred to as the &amp;ldquo;Nobel Prize of Computing,&amp;rdquo; carries a $1 million prize with financial support provided by Google, Inc. The award is named for Alan M. Turing, the British mathematician who articulated the mathematical foundations of computing.&lt;/p&gt;

		<description>&lt;p&gt;Michel Talagrand of the Centre national de la recherche scientifique (CNRS), Paris, France, has been awarded the 2024 Abel Prize.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://mathscinet.ams.org/mathscinet/mrauthorId/170350&quot;&gt;Talagrand&lt;/a&gt; is honored &amp;ldquo;for his groundbreaking contributions to probability theory and functional analysis, with outstanding applications in mathematical physics and statistics,&amp;rdquo; the Norwegian Academy of Science and Letters &lt;a href=&quot;https://abelprize.no/&quot;&gt;announced&lt;/a&gt;&amp;nbsp;today.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&amp;ldquo;The development of probability theory was originally motivated by problems that arose in the context of gambling or assessing risks,&amp;rdquo; noted the prize citation. &amp;ldquo;It has now become apparent that a thorough understanding of random phenomena is essential in today&amp;rsquo;s world. For example, random algorithms underpin our weather forecast and large language models.&amp;rdquo;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Helge Holden, chair of the Abel Prize Committee, called Talagrand &amp;ldquo;an exceptional&amp;nbsp;mathematician, and a formidable problem solver,&amp;rdquo; adding that Talagrand &amp;ldquo;has made profound contributions to our understanding of random, and in particular, Gaussian, processes. His work has reshaped several areas of probability theory. Furthermore, his proof of the celebrated Parisi formula for free energy of spin glasses is an amazing accomplishment.&amp;rdquo;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Raised in Lyon, France, Talagrand lost an eye at age five due to a genetic illness. Ten years later when his other eye was at risk, he missed school for six months. Fearing blindness, he studied hard during this period and discovered his talent for mathematics and physics. Talagrand later studied mathematics at the University of Lyon and earned his PhD in mathematics in 1977 from Universit&amp;eacute; Pierre-et-Marie-Curie - Paris VI.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;In 1974 Talagrand was offered a research position at the CNRS, an affiliation that lasted until his retirement in 2017. He was a member of the Functional Analysis Team of the Institute for Mathematical Sciences, and, from 1985 onward, research director at&amp;nbsp;CNRS. Additionally, he spent several years at the Ohio State University.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;A member of the French Academy of Sciences and a Chevalier de la L&amp;eacute;gion d&amp;rsquo;Honneur (2011), Talagrand also received the Lo&amp;egrave;ve prize (1995), the Fermat Prize (1997), and the Shaw Prize (2019). On his website, he has invited the mathematical community to win rewards by solving problems published&amp;nbsp;under the heading &amp;ldquo;Become RICH with my prizes.&amp;rdquo;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&amp;ldquo;It helps to be humble and to start by understanding fully the simple situations,&amp;rdquo; Talagrand wrote of his atypical mathematical style. &amp;ldquo;When working on a conjecture I also found it helpful to alternatively try to prove it and try to disprove it. The progress comes by jumps, much like matching two pieces of a puzzle. This is nearly instantaneous. Now you see it, and the moment before you did not. After such progress, you may have a much clearer vision of the problem.&amp;rdquo;&lt;/p&gt;

		<description>&lt;p&gt;Invited by the White House Office of Science and Technology Policy (OSTP), officials of the American Mathematical Society (AMS) recently contributed to preparing the US government&amp;rsquo;s Five-Year Federal STEM Education Strategic Plan.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Due out this spring, the plan &amp;ldquo;presents a vision for a future in which all Americans will have lifelong access to high-quality STEM education and the United States will remain the global leader in STEM literacy, innovation, and employment,&amp;rdquo; according to OSTP.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;AMS staff members Karen Saxe (senior vice president, &lt;a href=&quot;https://www.ams.org/government&quot;&gt;AMS Office of Government Relations&lt;/a&gt;) and Tyler Kloefkorn (associate vice president, government relations) joined AMS elected officials Bryna Kra (president), Judy Walker (board of trustees member), and Duane Cooper (council member) at a virtual meeting with the report-writing team on February 14. During this gathering, the group communicated the AMS&amp;rsquo;s priorities for mathematical sciences education:&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;ul&gt;
	&lt;li&gt;Agencies and departments should collectively prioritize and promote mathematical sciences education through gatherings, common resources, and shared investments to improve support dramatically for effective activities and programs. Coordination among OSTP&amp;rsquo;s six policy teams, the National Science Foundation, Department of Education, Department of Energy, and the Department of Defense would be especially helpful.&lt;/li&gt;
	&lt;li&gt;Increased and sustained investments in mathematical sciences education research and scaling solutions across the nation would transform our education system. Investments in mathematical sciences education research, development, and large-scale dissemination remain small in comparison to other scientific disciplines.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&amp;ldquo;We, the AMS, are so grateful to have the opportunity to meet with OSTP and the Federal STEM Education Strategic Plan writing team,&amp;rdquo; Kloefkorn said. &amp;ldquo;High-quality and accessible mathematical sciences education in the US is essential for global leadership in STEM innovation and discovery and prosperity for all. We look forward to seeing the latest version of the report and how mathematical sciences education is foundational to advancing US interests and priorities.&amp;rdquo;&lt;/p&gt;

		<description>&lt;p&gt;Lai-Sang Young, Courant Institute, New York University, has been awarded the 2024 Rolf Schock Prize in Mathematics &amp;ldquo;for long-lasting and deep contribution to the theory of non-uniformly hyperbolic dynamical systems,&amp;rdquo; according to the prize citation.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&amp;ldquo;Young is a leader in this theory,&amp;rdquo; noted the prize press release. &amp;ldquo;Among other contributions, she has shown formulas for the relationship with the fractal dimension, entropy and Lyapunov exponents, which provides the expansion of the systems. Particularly significant is her construction of so-called Young Towers, which makes it possible to prove exponential decay of correlations for several systems.&amp;quot;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Young received her PhD from the University of California, Berkeley, in 1978. Since 1999 she has been a professor of mathematics at the Courant Institute, where she is also Henry and Lucy Moses Professor of Science. Her previous awards have included the Ruth Lyttle Satter Prize (1993) and the Heinz Hopf Prize (2023). She is a member of both the National Academy of Sciences and the American Academy of Sciences.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;About the prize&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;On his death in 1986, Rolf Schock donated a large sum of money for a prize to be awarded in his name. His wish was that the Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences would propose laureates in logics and philosophy, as well as in mathematics; that the Royal Swedish Academy of Fine Arts would propose a laureate in one of the visual arts; and the Royal Swedish Academy of Music in one of the musical arts. His fortune is managed by the Schock Foundation, which formally decides the laureates. This year&amp;rsquo;s prize amount per prize area is 600,000 Swedish kronor (approximately US$59,000). The prize ceremony will be held at the Royal Swedish Academy of Fine Arts in Stockholm on November 11, 2024.&lt;/p&gt;
