The National Academies' Board on Mathematical Sciences and their Applications (BMSA) provides a broad interface between the research enterprise and federal agencies that rely on the mathematical sciences. It plays a unique role of advising the federal government and policy community how to make best use of the mathematical sciences. Over its 32 years of existence, the BMSA has produced 78 reports. Through its work, the Board strengthens the policy making process; increases the visibility of, and appreciation for, the mathematical sciences; and identifies growth areas for the discipline.The Board provides objective and authoritative advice on how best to apply the tools of mathematics, statistics, operations research, financial engineering, simulation science, analytics, risk analysis, systems engineering, and decision analysis to practical problems of national importance. It consists of 19 pro bono experts from a broad range of quantitative fields with experience in academia, industry, government, and national laboratories. Five BMSA members are members of the National Academy of Sciences and three of the National Academy of Engineering; all are recognized leaders in their fields. Board members carry out their work by identifying important steps of value to federal agencies and the mathematical sciences, and then recruiting leading mathematical scientists to participate in workshops, studies, and other activities focused on the technical challenges of federal decision-makers.

美国国家科学院数学科学及其应用委员会 (BMSA) 在研究企业和依赖数学科学的联邦机构之间提供了广泛的接口。它在为联邦政府和政策界如何充分利用数学科学提供建议方面发挥着独特的作用。 BMSA 成立 32 年来，已编写了 78 份报告。董事会通过其工作加强了政策制定过程；提高数学科学的知名度和欣赏度；并确定该学科的发展领域。委员会就如何最好地将数学、统计学、运筹学、金融工程、模拟科学、分析学、风险分析、系统工程和决策分析工具应用于实际问题提供客观和权威的建议具有国家重要性。它由 19 名来自广泛定量领域的无偿专家组成，他们在学术界、工业界、政府和国家实验室拥有丰富的经验。 BMSA 成员中有 5 名是美国国家科学院院士，3 名是美国国家工程院院士；他们都是各自领域公认的领导者。董事会成员通过确定对联邦机构和数学科学有价值的重要步骤来开展工作，然后招募领先的数学科学家参加针对联邦决策者的技术挑战的研讨会、研究和其他活动。
