For now, continue using the current page and event submission process (freeze period dates to be advised).

Join science writer Simon Singh on a whistle-stop tour through two decades of his bestselling books. ‘Fermat’s Last Theorem’ looks at one of the biggest mathematical puzzles of the millennium; ‘The Code Book’ shares the secrets of cryptology; ‘Big Bang’ explores the history of cosmology; ‘Trick or Treatment’ asks some hard questions about alternative medicine; and ‘The Simpsons and Their Mathematical Secrets’ explains how TV writers, throughout the show’s 35-year history, have smuggled in mathematical jokes.
Please email external-relations@maths.ox.ac.uk to register to attend in person.
The lecture will be broadcast on the Oxford Mathematics YouTube Channel on Wednesday 27 August at 5-6pm and any time after (no need to register for the online version).
