It's Women in Mathematics Day! May 12 is a joyful opportunity for the mathematical community to celebrate women in mathematics. The celebration takes place every year, all around the world. 

The day coincides with the birthday of Maryam Mirzakhani (1977-2017) who was an Iranian mathematician and a Professor of Mathematics at Stanford University. She was one of the world’s leading experts in geometry and dynamical systems. Her beautiful and astonishing results and her life and career are an inspiration for everyone, women and men, to pursue their dreams in science. 

The Mathematics Department at Colby College presents a film screening of ``Olga Ladyzhenskaya" as part of the May 12 celebration of women in mathematics. The film will be shown on Friday, May 12th, at 4:00PM in the Davis Science Center at Colby College. 

As an effort to celebrate Women Mathematics Day the film Olga Ladyzhenskaya produced and directed by Eakaterina Eremenko will be screened before a learned gathering with target audience of approximately one hundred research students and faculty members to inspire women to celebrate their achievements in Mathematics. 

The screening of the film "Olga Ladyzhenskaya" will be done for faculty members, research scholars and MSc students in the Department of Mathematics VNIT Nagpur. 

May 12 is International Women in Mathematics Day, in honor of the birthday of mathematician Maryam Mirzakhani, the first and only woman to receive a Fields Medal.

In celebration of this day, Grupo Elza will broadcast two short films suggested by the May12 website:

The School of Mathematical Sciences at University of Galway (Ireland) is delighted to host an in-person event for the International Day of Women in Mathematics on the 12th May 2023.

The event features some light refreshments from 12-1pm and the screening of the documentary "Secrets of the Surface: The Mathematical Vision of Maryam Mirzakhani" from 1-2pm.

We shall be screening a documentary on the life of Olga Alexandrovna Ladyzhenskaya, followed by one of the University of Malta's women professor Beatriz Zamora-Aviles.

The Mathematics Department at St. Edward's College, MALTA, is happy to announce the screening of a mathematics documentary on Friday the 12th of May at 1pm.

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.

The event will take place on May 24 at 6:30pm at the Institute for Mathematics of the Goethe University Frankfurt am Main, room 711 (gross), Robert-Mayer-Str. 10.

EWM Croatia is inviting you to the screening of the following documentaries:

"Olga Ladyzhenskaya"

"Journeys of Women in Mathematics""

on May 12th, 2023 in classroom 005 of the University of Zagreb, Faculty of Science, Department of Mathematics, starting at 5 pm.

After the screenings, everyone is welcome to join for the discussion and the socializing.
