This volume features a variety of research projects at the
intersection of mathematics and public policy. The topics included
here fall in the areas of cybersecurity and climate change, two
broad and impactful issues that benefit greatly from mathematical
techniques. Each chapter in the book is a mathematical look into a
specific research question related to one of these issues, an
approach that offers the reader insight into the application of
mathematics to important public policy questions. The articles in
this volume are papers inspired by a Workshop for Women in
Mathematics and Public Policy, held January 22-25, 2019 at the
Institute for Pure and Applied Mathematics and the Luskin Center at
the University of California, Los Angeles. The workshop was created
to promote and develop women at all levels of their careers as
researchers in mathematics and public policy. The idea was modeled
after other successful Research Collaboration Conferences for
Women, where junior and senior women come together at week-long
conferences held at mathematics institutes to work on pre-defined
research projects. The workshop focused on how mathematics can be
used in public policy research and was designed to foster
collaborative networks for women to help address the gender gap in
mathematics and science.
