We are delighted to introduce our latest exhibition in the Andrew Wiles Building, featuring 30 mathematically-inspired paintings by Dutch visual artist Paul Ouwerkerk.
The exhibition launch will be on Friday 5th June at 5 p.m. in the South Mezzanine and all are welcome. Please email Dyrol (@email) if you wish to attend.
To celebrate International Women in Mathematics Day (May 12), Mathematrix is hosting a pizza lunch where we will watch ‘Journeys of Women in Mathematics’, a powerful 20-minute film by the International Mathematical Union showcasing the experiences of women mathematicians worldwide.
The film follows three mathematicians from India, Cameroon, and Brazil from their home institutions to the (WM)² international meeting, showing their research and what it’s like to be part of the global maths community.
Begun in 2022 due to the cancellation of the ICM in Russia, the Department mini-ICM returns to celebrate our invited speakers at the International Congress to be held in Philadelphia in July.
This year’s event will be on Monday May 11th (week 3) in L2, in the Mathematical Institute. The talks should be widely accessible, so do come along to hear about the work of our colleagues.
