Mathematics Festival Mathfest

For the first time we organise in Utrecht the mathematics festival Mathfest. We offer a program consisting of various activities for all ages! We have chosen Sunday May 11 as the date for the festival because we want to celebrate both Mother’s Day and May 12. For the closing of the festival students from the University of Amsterdam will give two talks about the work of Maryna Viazovska and Maryam Mirzakhani!

Brigitte Cordier : la première thèse de 3e cycle de mathématique à Rennes il y a juste 60 ans/Brigitte Cordier: The first graduate thesis in mathematics in Rennes exactly 60 years ago

La première thèse de 3e cycle de mathématique à Rennes a été soutenue le 6 mai 1965, il y a juste 60 ans, par une femme, Brigitte Cordier (future Brigitte Cordier-Escofier ou Brigitte Escofier). C’est une thèse importante. Dirigée par Jean-Paul Benzécri, elle établit les résultats de base de la méthode d’Analyse des données appelée Analyse factorielle des correspondances. Elle est au départ de ce qu’on a appelé l'Ecole française d'analyse des données. La diffusion de la thèse a été exceptionnelle : plusieurs milliers d’exemplaires.

What is the work of a mathematics researcher like? Ask María de la Paz Tirado Hernández (ICMAT–UAM)

What does it mean to conduct research in mathematics? What is the daily life of someone who works in this field like? What are the possible paths to pursue it? If you have ever asked yourself any of these questions, or others related to mathematical research, ICMAT invites you to pose them to a member of our scientific staff. María de la Paz Tirado Hernández, assistant lecturer at the Autonomous University of Madrid (UAM) and ICMAT member, will answer all questions received through our social media channels (Instagram, X, Facebook and Bluesky) before 4 May.

May12 Coffee Catch ups at University of Melbourne

Individual connections and mentorships can be an incredibly important part of encouraging young female and gender diverse students to continue studying mathematics by providing them with tailored advice and camaraderie. This event will pair women, trans and gender diverse mathematics students of different experience levels (one more senior, one more junior) to discuss their journeys in studying mathematics over a coffee at a University of Melbourne cafe.

Cheers to Maryam! Giovani matematiche si raccontano /Young women mathematicians tell their stories

In occasion of "May 12, Celebrating Women in Mathematics", the University of L'Aquila and the Gran Sasso Science Institute are organising a gathering event to reflect on the role of women in mathematics. This event will take place on May 15, 2021 at LiberaMia in L’Aquila. An unconventional happy hour meeting featuring four passionate and brilliant young mathematicians pursuing academic research careers.

Greetings to everyone
Title of the event: “Escape”

"Mathematics, rightly viewed, possesses not only truth but supreme beauty — a beauty cold and austere, like that of sculpture."
