We will hold an afternoon of talks by female mathematicians in the department. The aim is for speakers to be from a variety of levels/career stages, including undergraduate, postgraduate research, postdoc and lecturers. Talks will be primarily research oriented, but accessible to undergraduates, and with an emphasis on why the person chose to study maths and/or pursue a career in maths, and what fascinates them about their research.
This is a 2 day long mathematics festival, free and open access to everyone of age 7+.
It includes about 20 activity stands, 15 mathematical association stands, invited talks, movie screenings, publisher stands, etc.
Specific women in mathematics activities are part of the program : an exhibition on Sophie Germain, movie screenings about women in mathematics followed by discussions ...
SLMath workshop and Kovalevskaya's movie viewing
Talk by Dr Nikita Aggarwal (IISER Bhopal) entitled 'Escape in Open Dynamical Systems'
Classes from nursery to secondary school are invited to celebrate Math Women's Day 2024 by choosing a number that is significant to them. Participating classes must send an image of the number and a brief reason for their choice to donne.matematiche@icpragenova.edu.it.
The event will focus on highlighting the successes and challenges faced by women in mathematics, as well as providing guidance and inspiration to aspiring mathematicians.
