Dear Math students,
This may be of interest to you, but surprisingly I could see no information about the impact of COVID-19. OSU is currently under a state of emergency and it seems unlikely that this will be held in person.

We are excited to announce the 17th annual
YOUNG MATHEMATICIANS CONFERENCE
to be held online from August 14 - 16, 2020 (Fri-Sun)
Please mark the date and forward this announcement to any students or
teachers you know are involved in undergraduate research in
mathematics. Information about this year's conference will be posted
and updated at http://ymc.osu.edu/
# APPLICATIONS
We are inviting applications from undergraduate students involved in
mathematical research (in REUs and similar programs) to present their
research in talks and poster sessions.
Our online application system will open in June followed shortly by
our second announcement. The deadline for applications will be
Wednesday July 15, 5:00pm Eastern.
# SPECIAL EVENTS
Besides the student presentations, we are delighted to have the
following distinguished speakers to deliver plenary talks at YMC 2019:
Matthew Kahle (The Ohio State University)
Roland Roeder (Indiana University Purdue University at Indianapolis)
Chelsea Walton (The University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign)
# JUDGING
Applications will be judged and scored right after the submission
deadline by a panel of approximately 25 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
We invite mathematics PhDs to volunteer to be a judge of abstracts.
It provides a unique perspective on mathematical undergraduate
research, and would require about five or so hours in the days
following the deadline. To help with judging please email us at
