Dear students and colleagues,

We are excited to announce the 20th annual

  YOUNG MATHEMATICIANS CONFERENCE（YMC）

held at The Ohio State University

  Tuesday, August 15 – Thursday, August 17, 2023

Information about this year's in-person conference will be updated at
https://ymc.osu.edu.

YMC is an annual conference for undergraduate research in mathematics
for students in REUs and similar programs around the country.

Successful applicants are invited with full travel support to present
their research and interact with peer and senior
participants. Invitations to YMC are competitive due to limited space
and budget.

We expect to invite and fully support around forty student presenters.

Unfortunately, due to limited funding we will not be able to provide
support for accompanying mentors.

## APPLICATIONS：Deadline and Review Timeline

Applications to YMC 2023 will open on June 23.

The deadline for applications is

Wednesday July 12th at 5:00pm EDT

The review of applications will be conducted by a 30+ member panel of
mathematics faculty and will start immediately after this deadline. We
expect to make decisions on the bulk of invitations by Monday, July
17. Students should be able to confirm their participation by Friday,
July 21.

SPECIAL EVENTS：Plenary Speakers and Tea/Coffee Times

Besides the student presentations, we are delighted to have the
following distinguished speakers scheduled for YMC 2023:

  Loredana Lanzani（Syracuse University）
  Carmen Rovi（Loyola University）

As usual, we will provide many opportunities for interaction between
junior and senior conference participants.

## JUDGING

Applications will be judged and scored right after the submission
deadline by a panel of approximately 30 mathematics faculty so that we
expect most decisions to be available in the week following the
deadline. More info on the selection process, including tips for
writing abstracts, is available during the application process.

## JUDGES WANTED

If you are interested in undergraduate research, hold a mathematics
Ph.D.（preferably faculty position）, have 5 or so hours' time and
internet access in the days following the deadline（July 13–16）, and
would like to help with judging, please email us at
fowler@math.osu.edu .

The conference is funded under NSF grant DMS-1916606 and supported by
the Department of Mathematics at The Ohio State University.
