Blackwell–Tapia prize

The Blackwell–Tapia Prize is a mathematics award that recognizes someone who has made significant research contributions in their field and has worked to address the problem of under-representation of minority groups in mathematics.[1] It is presented every other year at the Blackwell-Tapia Conference, which promotes mathematical excellence by minority researchers and is sponsored by the National Science Foundation. The prize is named for David Blackwell and Richard Tapia.[2]
