The Young Mathematicians Conference (YMC), a premier annual conference for undergraduate research in mathematics, takes place during a weekend in August, from Friday noon until Sunday at noon. The conference has been running since 2003 with the ongoing support of NSF. YMC provides a venue for undergraduate students to present and disseminate the results of their research, discuss mathematics with their peers and with senior researchers, and receive recognition of their research achievements. Another primary mission of YMC is to inspire and encourage students, particularly women and traditionally underrepresented groups, to pursue mathematics as a career.Students submit abstracts, which are judged and ranked by a panel of 40-70 faculty reviewers. Top-ranked students and their mentors are invited to participate in YMC. Besides student talks and a poster session, there are three plenary lectures delivered by world-class mathematicians to introduce students to topics related to high impact innovative research of current interest. Videos of these lectures are posted online. A Graduate School Orientation event invites representatives from PhD programs to provide information and insights about a graduate career in mathematics. YMC is a natural place to exchange ideas focused on undergraduate mentoring. Mentors from different institutions convene at a Mentors' Breakfast where they discuss best practices, previous experiences, and challenges related to supervising undergraduate research and mentorship. A strong online presence allows connections and continuity with past participants. The conference website is https://ymc.osu.edu/.This award reflects NSF's statutory mission and has been deemed worthy of support through evaluation using the Foundation's intellectual merit and broader impacts review criteria.

年轻的数学家会议（YMC）是一场数学本科研究年度大会，在八月的一个周末开始，从星期五中午到周日中午。自2003年自NSF的支持下，该会议一直在举行。 YMC为本科生提供了一个场所，以展示和传播他们的研究结果，与同龄人和高级研究人员讨论数学，并获得对他们的研究成就的认可。 YMC的另一个主要任务是启发和鼓励学生，尤其是妇女和传统代表性不足的群体，将数学作为职业。学生提交摘要，这些摘要由40-70位教职审稿人的小组评判和排名。邀请排名最高的学生及其导师参加YMC。除了学生会谈和海报会议外，世界一流的数学家还提供了三场全体演讲，以向学生介绍与当前兴趣的高影响力创新研究有关的主题。这些讲座的视频在线发布。研究生院介绍活动邀请来自博士学位课程的代表提供有关数学研究生职业的信息和见解。 YMC是交换专注于本科指导的想法的自然场所。来自不同机构的导师在导师的早餐中召集，他们讨论了与监督本科研究和指导有关的最佳实践，以前的经验以及挑战。强大的在线形象可以与过去的参与者建立联系和连续性。会议网站是https://ymc.osu.edu/。该奖项反映了NSF的法定任务，并且使用基金会的知识分子优点和更广泛的影响审查标准，被认为值得通过评估来获得支持。
