The Japan-U.S. Mathematics Institute (JAMI) was founded by the Johns Hopkins Department of Mathematics in 1988, with the cooperation of the JHU President’s Office and members of the mathematical community of Japan. JAMI exists to further cooperation in mathematical research through broadly based programs in mathematics.
In 2006, JAMI was awarded the Mathematical Society of Japan’s prestigious Seki-Takakazu Prize. (Award ceremony pictures)
The current director of JAMI is Nitu Kitchloo.
