	Clay Mathematics Institute - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The Clay Mathematics Institute (CMI) is a private, non-profit foundation, based in Cambridge, Massachusetts, and dedicated to increasing and disseminating mathematical knowledge.
		In announcing the prize, CMI drew a parallel to Hilbert's problems, which were proposed in 1900, and had a substantial impact on 20th century mathematics.
		Besides the Millennium Prize Problems, the Clay Mathematics Institute also supports mathematics via the awarding of research fellowships (which range from two to five years, and are aimed at younger mathematicians), as well as shorter-term scholarships for programs, individual research, and book writing.

	Basic Facts
		Clay continued to be involved in teaching developmental psychology, consultation, testing, and measurement to school psychologists for the next twenty-five years.
		Clay’s developing criticism of the theoretical perspectives and the nature of instruction in the field of learning disabilities was a catalyst for much of her subsequent work.
		Clay’s observational methodology and clinical orientation arise from her training in developmental psychology and have kept her close to the source of literacy learning—the children and their teachers.

	The Lasker Foundation \| Former Award Winners, Basic Medical Research
		Before Clay, Bertil and Rod's work, physiologists knew that ion channels are important, but what channels actually are and how they work were only understood at the level of the formalisms that Hodgkin and Huxley had enunciated two decades earlier.
		Clay Armstrong, from the University of Pennsylvania, performed ingenious physiological experiments that gave a radically new physical picture of what a channel is and how it works.
		Clay continues to make new discoveries about how channels work, most recently showing that the presence of ions in the channel's pore influences how its gates operate.

	07/13/01 -- Math theory predicts fire, disease spread
		My research deals with models of this sort," Smirnov, a senior lecturer at Royal Institute of Technology in Stockholm, Sweden, told United Press International from the Kennedy Center in Washington, where he is the recipient of the prestigious 2001 Clay Institute Research Award for his work.
		His theory -- which completes the research of British physicist John Cardy -- is important because it permits researchers in a variety of fields to make predictions, even with limited data, over much larger or much smaller scales.
		A researcher studying the spread of AIDS, for instance, only needs the data from a small village and Smirnov's theory to build a computer model detailing how the dreaded disease spreads globally -- moving from host to host through the random maze of towns, cities, countries, and continents.
