Festeggiamo le donne in matematica, Pisa, Italy

Ti invitiamo a festeggiare con noi le donne in matematica.

La prima parte del pomeriggio sarà dedicata a Maryam Mirzakhani, la prima donna a ricevere la medaglia Fields: il 12 maggio ricorre l'anniversario della sua nascita e "May 12" è ormai riconosciuto dalla comunità matematica mondiale come il giorno delle donne in matematica.

Poi faremo una merenda insieme, e chi vorrà potrà spostarsi sul prato per parlare informalmente delle difficoltà nei primi anni del corso di Laurea in Matematica all’Università di Pisa, con attenzione particolare a questioni di genere.
