mathematician Shiing-Shen Chern.

The Award is to be given to an individual whose lifelong
outstanding achievements in the field of mathematics warrant
the highest level of recognition. It consists of a medal
and a monetary award of US$ 500,000. Half of the amount
shall be donated to organizations of the recipient's
choice to support research, education, outreach, or other
activities to promote mathematics.
