COUNTRY United Kingdom


AFFILIATION University of Cambridge, United Kingdom
FIELD OF RESEARCH Arithmetic and algebraic aspects of complex dynamical systems

“I was never the sort of person who, when I was two years
old, was dreaming of chalkboards.”

“Being a female mathematician you are very often the strong


minority in a room. The other side of that is that you can have a
very large impact just by being in a room. So if I go to a seminar
and me being there means some student is not the only
woman in the room, that makes a big difference for her.”

“There’s this wonderful thing when you solve a problem and


you didn’t understand it one moment and then suddenly it
was all so brilliantly clear to you the next moment.”
