With this conference, we want to honor Professor Michelle Wachs of the University of Miami, who is a leader in the field. Professor Wachs has made many important contributions to the mathematical community through her research and service, and has served as a role model for a large group of successful women in her field. The conference should provide inspiration to the next generation.
