Events in the Department

Amandine Aftalion's Pubic Lecture is now on YouTube if you want tips on how to smash it when it comes to running and swimming and floating in the air.

Join us for the inaugural session of Mathematrix Book Club on Wednesday 22^nd at 2:30 pm in N3.12.  

Come along to Mathematrix events throughout the term to connect with other graduate students and postdocs and to discuss issues affecting underrepresented groups in maths. Allies are always encouraged to attend Mathematrix events.

Our first event of term, as always, is our pizza lunch. Come along to hear more about the Mathematrix events in Michaelmas and meet like-minded people in the Mathematical Institute.

Going for Gold: the Mathematics of Sporting Glory - Amandine Aftalion

Erica Thompson's recent Oxford Mathematics Public Lecture is now available if you want to drop in.

Come to L1 at 4pm to watch our graduate students battle it out in a fiercely friendly manner to show who can best explain their work in 180 seconds (or less) with the help of just one slide. 

Come along and see what's going on.

Oxford Mathematics Public Lecture - Wednesday 4 June, 5pm, L1

Mathematical models are used to inform decisions across many sectors including climate change, finance, and epidemics. But models are not perfect representations of the real world – they are partial, uncertain and often biased.  What, then, does responsible modelling look like?  And how can we apply this ethical framework to new AI modelling methods?
