No 31 (2019/1)

When we planned this issue two of the topics were quite obvious: in fact, 2018 has been the year of the ICM in Rio and we had the EWM General Meeting, held in Graz last September.

We covered all that, and, as usual, we also have inspiring interviews, event reports and much more.
We hope you will enjoy this issue!

No 30 (2018)

I’m very excited to introduce this new issue, which is the first one completely online.

This issue is still a bit ‘beta’: we have been tinkering with the website for quite a while now and we will optimise things with time.
We think it is a big leap, which will improve also the diffusion of our activities, and we hope you will enjoy the read.

And don’t miss the message we received from the EWM Convenors about the ICM.

Dear Reader,

First of all, I would like to welcome Francesca Arici and Olga Kuznetsova to the editorial team and to thank  Jasmin Raissy, who decided to step down,  for all the work she has done.

The EWM Newsletter is in general dedicated to the present: we interview mathematicians and highlight current or future events. In this edition,  memory plays an important part.

Dear Reader,

In the previous issue we announced a new format for the newsletter, to go with the re-organization of the EWM website. Works for the new website are still in progress, but nevertheless we decided to publish a new issue with the usual PDF structure.

In this edition we interviewed Carolina Araujo, from IMPA, who is one of the organizors of the next ICM 2018 in Rio de Janeiro; Elena Resmerita, our current Deputy-Convenor, elected during the EWM General Assembly in Berlin in July, and Elisabetta Strickland, who recently authored a beautiful biography of Mary Somerville, which is also reviewed here.

Moreover, we publish here the report of the General Assembly, together with reports on the Women of Mathematics Exhibition and the meeting of the IMU Committee for Women in Mathematics.
