The Joint Mathematics Meetings comes to New England! The Mathematical Association of America (MAA) and the American Mathematical Society (AMS) invite you to join them at the next Joint Mathematics Meetings which will be held in Boston, known not only for its rich history but also for its central location to many colleges and universities. This will be the 95th annual winter meeting of MAA and the 118th annual meeting of AMS. They will again host sessions by the Association for Symbolic Logic, the Association for Women in Mathematics, the National Association for Mathematicians, and the Society for Industrial and Applied Mathematics. Attendance is expected to reach record breaking numbers so mark your calendars and register now!

Look for a few Joint Mathematics Meetings’ mainstays such as

• A comprehensive and rich scientific program geared toward mathematicians of all ages and levels of expertise

• Recognition of numerous mathematical achievements through Prize and Award Ceremonies

Additional Info

merica are pleased to announce a partnership with the global TV production company WebsEdge to produce a broadcasting program called “JMM TV” at the upcoming 2012 Joint Mathematics Meetings in Boston.

This new venture serves to highlight what is happening at the meeting and present vignettes of innovative programs and recent developments in the mathematical sciences.

Each daily program will have two features: “Meeting News” and “Programs of Interest.” Meeting News will be a daily program of meeting highlights, featuring “behind the scenes” interviews, coverage of meeting events, and reactions to the day from participants. Programs of Interest pieces will be five-minute sponsored innovative programming documentaries.

WebsEdge will be reaching out to organizations and agencies to describe the “Programs of Interest” program and seek their engagement in creating five-minute documentary-style films showcasing particular aspects of their programs and initiatives.

There are a limited number of spots available for the films and a financial commitment from the participating organization is required.

If you would like to explore the opportunity of having a film featured in the program, please contact the following WebsEdge team member directly: Kathryn Guare,
