Durante este día tendremos dos jornadas; la primera dirigida a mujeres estudiantes de colegio donde tendremos un panel con estudiantes y egresadas del programa de Matemáticas de la Konrad Lorenz y posteriormente realizaremos un circuito de retos. Para la jornada de la tarde, contaremos con la visita de la Secretaría de la Mujer donde nos compartirán información sobre los Centros de Inclusión Digital y finalizaremos la jornada con un Workshop interdisciplinar en reducción de brecha de género. 

What does 'shearing' has to with butterflies?  What does 'rigidity' means in mathematics and why is it important? In this talk, accessible to Bachelor and Master students with a mathematical background, we will try to answer these questions offering a glimpse of the powerful mathematical works of Marina Ratner (1938-2017) and her legacy, from the Ratner shearing property to Ratner's rigidity theorems.

The talk is part of the May12 initiatives to 'Celebrate Women in Mathematics'.

En conmemoración del natalicio de Maryam Mirzakhani, la primera mujer y la primera iraní en recibir la Medalla Fields, el 12 de mayo se celebra el Día Internacional de las Mujeres en Matemáticas. Es por ello que en la Facultad de Ciencias, realizaremos diversas actividades el Lunes 8 de mayo desde las 10 am, para las cuales están cordialmente invitadxs. 

Lunes 8 de mayo - Facultad de Ciencias:

A talk about Maryam Mirzakhani and other pioneering female mathematicians.

Presenting Maryam Mirzakhani's life story.

A Competition for intelligence.

Conversaremos sobre os desafios, os obstáculos e as alegrias que encontramos ao fazer matemática.

We are hosting two talks and a movie screening as part of our celebration. The first talk is titled "Women in Mathematics through the Years," presented by Mythili Ramaswamy from ICTS-TIFR, Bangalore. The second talk, "Studying geometry through invariants," will be presented by Charanya Ravi from ISI Bangalore. We will also be screening the movie "Picture a Scientist," a documentary in which leading women scientists discuss the inequalities they've faced as they set out to create a new formula to make STEM open to all.

Series of talks about women in mathematics and science, in may 11th and may 12th.

We will unveil Women in Mathematics posters in English, isiXhosa and Afrikaans in the Mathematics Division of Stellenbosch University. The posters are a tribute to the role of women in the history of mathematics and are part of the worldwide project developed and coordinated by Ms. Silvy Hendriks, Dr. Houry Melkonian, and Prof. Maria Vlasiou. Additional contributions were made by Dr. Tom Ritchie and the following students of the University of Exeter: Amber Ellis, Sophia Jaffer, Anila Navaratnam, and Sophie Peel.

The 3rd IMPA Mathematical Women Meeting - EMMI is organized by female students of the Instituto de Matemática Pura e Aplicada
to celebrate the Women's Day in Mathematics and to promote a conversation about the reality of the academic career for women.

The 3rd EMMI will address issues intrinsic to the daily life of women in research, showing the transition from undergraduate to master, from master to doctorate and from doctorate to post-doctorate.

The gender gap in mathematics will be discussed and experiences will be exchanged among the participants.

Invitamos a toda la comunidad matemática a celebrar el Día internacional de las Mujeres Matemáticas, en las jornadas que se realizarán en la Facultad de Ciencias de la Universidad Nacional de Colombia, durante las tardes del 11 y 12 de mayo.
