Focused Collaborative Research

AIM supports research activities that align with its mission to advance mathematical knowledge through collaboration and to broaden participation in the mathematical endeavor. About 1,000 mathematicians visit AIM each year to participate in focused workshops or small research groups called SQuaREs. Hundreds of other mathematicians are involved in virtual AIM Research Communities.

Workshops, SQuaREs, and AIM Research Communities are proposed by the mathematics community each year during our open Call for Proposals. Proposals are reviewed by AIM's Scientific Board, which selects approximately 20 workshops and 25 new SQuaREs to support each year.
