Forthcoming Women in Mathematics Day

The next Women in Mathematics Day will be held on 27 April 2012 at De Morgan House, 57-58 Russell Square, London. Sessions will include talks by women mathematicians at different career stages and a poster session.

This year, the speakers are:

  Jennifer Scott (Rutherford Appleton Laboratory) Challenges from a large sparse world
Rachel Camina (Cambridge) The influence of conjugacy class sizes
Christina Goldschmidt (Oxford) The scaling limit of the critical random graph 

The event provides an opportunity to meet and talk with women who are active and successful in mathematics. While this is an occasion particularly for women active in mathematics to get together, men are certainly not excluded from this event.
