women of mathematics
We celebrate this year's Ada Lovelace day with a selection of podcasts featuring some of the many women we have worked with over the years.
In this final episode of the Women of Mathematics series, we talk to Carola-Bibiane Schönlieb about the collaborative nature of mathematics.
We talk to Holly Krieger about the joys of learning and conversations with colleagues.
We talk to Julia Gog about the buzz of mathematical research, and how maths can help you do good in the world.
We continue our series featuring some of Cambridge's Women of Mathematics, with this 2017 interview with Nilanjana Datta.
Revisit this podcast from 2017, when we spoke to Natalia Berloff, one of the women featured in the Women of Mathematics photo exhibition.
From the mathematics of shuffling to tackling the COVID-19 pandemic, we've really enjoyed speaking to all of these female mathematicians about their work over the last year.
Holly Krieger works in dynamical systems theory, in particular on chaotic systems. Some of her greatest mathematical moments have come from teaching students.
Julia Gog is a mathematical biologist, helping to understand how infectious diseases spread. One of her favourite eureka moments came while she was playing a computer game.
Nilanjana Datta works in quantum information theory. She loves how mathematics can describe nature simply and elegantly.
