Description
The Board on Mathematical Sciences and Analytics, established in 1984, leads activities in the mathematical sciences at the National Academies. BMSA organizes studies, workshops, and other activities that provide mathematical science and statistical advice. Through these activities, BMSA helps a range of federal organizations engage with and make better use of the mathematical sciences and increase the ties between government programs and the mathematical sciences.
BMSA consists of pro bono experts from a broad range of quantitative fields with experience in academia, industry, and national laboratories. BMSA strives to do the following:
- Provide actionable mathematical advice to policy makers;
- Strengthen connections between scientific and engineering domains and mathematics, statistics, and data science;
- Support the health of the mathematical sciences ecosystem and a robust educational pipeline; and
- Increase public awareness of the expanding role of the mathematical sciences.
