Oxford Events, the new replacement for OxTalks, will launch on 16th March. The two-week OxTalks freeze period starts on Monday 2nd March. During this time, there will be no facility to publish or edit events. The existing OxTalks site will remain available to view during this period. Once Oxford Events launches, you will need a Halo login to submit events. Full details are available on the Staff Gateway.
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).
The Vicky Neale Public Lectures are a partnership between the Clay Mathematics Institute, PROMYS and Oxford Mathematics. The Oxford Mathematics Public Lectures are generously supported by XTX Markets.
