The movie screening will be preceded by a presentation given by Rachel Bailey (https://faculty.bentley.edu/profile/rbailey) of Bentley University, and followed by an collabaorative gathering. The May 12th initiative has been started several years ago to connect several organizations for women in mathematics around the world. Since 2024 the Committee for Women in Mathematics (CWM) of the International Mathematical Union (IMU) is officially sponsoring the May12 Initiative, with the approval from the IMU Executive Committee. The domain name womeninmaths.org is now owned by IMU. Maryam Mirzakhani was an Iranian mathematician and a Professor of Mathematics at Stanford University. She was one of the world's leading experts in geometry and dynamical systems. Her beautiful and astonishing results and her life and career are an inspiration for everyone, women and men, to pursue their dreams in science. She died tragically from cancer in 2017 at the early age of 40. In 2014, Maryam Mirzakhani was awarded the Fields Medal for her outstanding contributions to the dynamics and geometry of Riemann surfaces and their moduli spaces, becoming the first woman, and the first Iranian, to be recognized for her mathematical achievements by the top mathematical prize.
