Math Professor to Co-Organize a Special Session at International Meeting

John Ryan, professor of mathematics, has been selected to co-organize a special session for an international meeting in Portugal next summer. He and co-organizers Fabrizio Colombo of Milan Polytechnic, Italy, and Paula Cerejeiras, University of Aveiro, Portugal, were selected by an international committee to organize the session called Clifford Analysis, Dirac Operators, and Operator Theory. The session will have 15 speakers that reflect the international nature of the meeting and will include presentations by early-career mathematicians.

Once a year, the American Mathematical Society joins a host society to organize a meeting of the international mathematical community. The 2015 Joint International Meeting is being sponsored by the AMS, the European Mathematical Society and the hosting Portuguese Mathematical Society. The meeting is June 10-13, 2015, in Porto, Portugal.

The American Mathematical Society was founded in 1888 to further the interests of mathematical research and scholarship and today has membership of nearly 30,000 individuals and 580 institutional members in the U.S. and around the world.
