Why hold such a workshop? Currently only 6% of UK Maths Professors are female (Advancing
Women in Mathematics: Good Practice in UK University Departments; LMS Report 27/02/2013).
This workshop forms part of a wider set of conferences, workshops and short courses supported by OxPDE.
The workshop is open to all but registration is required.
