On May the 12th, the international mathematics community celebrates Women in Mathematics Day. It is also the date of birth of the Iranian mathematician Maryam Mirzakhani: the first woman to have been honoured by mathematics' highest prize, the Fields Medal. This happened in 2014. Unfortunately, Maryam died of breast cancer 3 years later, at age 40.
We will watch together the documentary “Secrets of the Surface: the Mathematical Vision of Maryam Mirzakhani” and reflect on the recent restrictions placed on and infractions against women in Iran.
