The NSF Mathematical Sciences Institutes Diversity Committee hosts the 2024 Blackwell-Tapia Conference and Award Ceremony. The Blackwell-Tapia Prize recognizes a mathematical scientist who has made outstanding contributions to research in their field of expertise and served as a role model for mathematical scientists and students from underrepresented groups, or has contributed in significant ways to addressing the underrepresentation of minorities in math. The 2024 recipient of the Blackwell-Tapia Prize is Dr. Illya Hicks, Professor and Department Chair of Computational Applied Mathematics and Operations Research at Rice University.

SLMath (formerly MSRI) invites current and prospective donors to an informal reception with appetizers & drinks. Directors Tatiana Toro and Hélène Barcelo will speak about upcoming events and programs, as well as the impact of private support on the Institute. SLMath thanks and acknowledges mathematicians who support the Institute's programs and workshops by joining our giving societies.
