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.

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? 

In this Oxford Mathematics Public Lecture Marcus du Sautoy unpacks how we make art, why a creative mindset is vital for discovering mathematics, and how a fundamental connection to the natural world intrinsically links the two subjects. 

21 May, 5.30pm. Please email Dyrol (@email) to register to attend in person.
