IWD 2020: MARYAM MIRZAKHANI

 

IWD 2020 : MARYAM MIRZAKHANI                                            

   The post I am uploading today is an homage to one of the most remarkable women of our century. I happened to hear about Maryam Mirzakhany a couple of years ago, while on a family holiday on the island of Kish, in southern Iran. 

Another Iranian woman, a researcher and a scientist I had just met, talked to me about her, and her description of Mirzakhani was so vivid I decided Mirzahani deserved a post of her own. Thank you, dear Neda.

Here it is. 

Soon I will be uploading an activity on this post.

I hope you find it interesting.
