Research by high school students can be accepted if the research was conducted under the supervision of a faculty member at a post-secondary institution.
Appropriate content for a poster includes, but is not limited to, a new result, a new proof of a known result, a new mathematical model, an innovative solution to a Putnam problem, or a method of solution to an applied problem. Purely expository material is not appropriate for this session.
The deadline to submit abstracts for the poster session on the JMM portal is Tuesday, September 26, 2023. Click here to submit your abstract on the JMM portal.
