The European Congress of Mathematics took place in Seville, Spain this week (weren't they fab in the Euros), and two ex-Oxford Mathematicians won prizes. Cristiana De Filippis, now Associate Professor at the University of Parma, and Freddie Manners, now Associate Professor at University of California, San Diego.

Congratulations to Becky, an award which recognised her passion for teaching, popularity with students and her major contribution to our outreach.
