John Horton Conway: 1937-2020

John Conway, one of the most remarkable mathematicians of our time, died on April 11, 2020, at the age of 82. His interests were so varied and his contributions so numerous that it is difficult to characterize them in a few words. To begin to appreciate his legacy see this obituary from the New York Times and this article from Princeton University. For more mathematical details about his accomplishments see this tribute from Ed Dunne.

A Brief History of AIM

Established in 1994 by businessman and math enthusiast John Fry, the American Institute of Mathematics is now located in San Jose, California, after moving from its original Palo Alto location in 2015.

AIM's mission is to advance mathematical knowledge through collaboration, to broaden participation in the mathematical endeavor, and to increase awareness of the contributions of the mathematical sciences to society.

Since 2002 AIM has been part of the Mathematical Sciences Institutes program in the Division of Mathematical Sciences of the National Science Foundation.
