From the Editor

As we return to our teaching duties, it is both comforting and edifying to have a new issue of the Notices to turn to. The September issue contains an interview with the creators of PRIMES, an MIT research-based program for high school students. September also offers a compelling piece on the question of diversity for women in the STEM disciplines. There is a piece on Gauss’s hidden menagerie of dazzling visuals. And the September issue features a memorial to eminent Swedish mathematician Lars Hörmander. — Frank Morgan, Editor
