The Mathematical Sciences Research Institute (MSRI), which has been primarily funded since its inception in 1982 by the National Science Foundation, "exists to further mathematical research." With additional support and collaboration from other government agencies, private foundations, and academic and commercial sponsors, each year more than 1,000 mathematicians visit MSRI for mathematical programs and workshops. Along with detailed information of the many programs offered year-round, and contacts for members around the world, the highlight of the MSRI Website is its substantial MSRI Preprint Series (1995-2000) covering a wide variety of mathematical topics. Additionally, the site offers a huge archive of online video lectures and workshops (1993-2000). The video collection stores lectures on Hopf Algebras, the Future of Mathematical Communication, the Modularity of Elliptical Curves, Random Matrices, Algorithms, Technological and Mathematical Challenges for Understanding the Genome, and much more. Researchers wishing to apply for a visit to MSRI may obtain information at the Homepage.
