About the JMM

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. The Joint Mathematics Meetings 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.
