OxTalks will soon move to the new Halo platform and will become 'Oxford Events.' There will be a need for an OxTalks freeze. This was previously planned for Friday 14th November – a new date will be shared as soon as it is available (full details will be available on the Staff Gateway).
In the meantime, the OxTalks site will remain active and events will continue to be published.
If staff have any questions about the Oxford Events launch, please contact halo@digital.ox.ac.uk
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.
