This is my story: a story which mirrors that of most of my friends & colleagues. Despite such humble beginnings, they have gone on to achieve great things in life and in Mathematics @hermathsstory @womeninmaths @WordsAfrica @femafricmaths

@MudgeRulf Amekuosha muosho mmoja plus three rinse cycles 😂😂😂 Anyway, at least when they wash your face it is not as bad as when they disappear with your knee. Hehehe.

A friend with an IT background couldn’t take in the fact that I uploaded a bad quality photo as a profile pic . He went on to create an „ Avatar „ for me . He has washed me with Omo, Ariel and Jik but still insists that the avatar looks like me . Anyway, I stay with my fuzzy pic on my profile for it is the real me . Come the next elections, this guy can make money washing politician‘s campaign photos 🤣.

@GioeleZardini Congratulations Gioele.

Honored and excited to have been selected as a DARPA Young Faculty Award (YFA) recipient this year! 🚀 With this support, my group at MIT will develop new compositional approaches to design complex, multi-agent autonomous systems! :) lids.mit.edu/news-and-event…

We welcome all to this year’s edition of #BlackHeroesMaths 1-2 October. On this edition, we celebrate 100 years since Dr. Elbert Cox, got his #phd in #mathematics. He was the first black person in the world to attain that feat.

2025 is a special year as this is the 100 year anniversary of the first Black person in the world to get a PhD in mathematics. Dr Elbert Cox #BlackHeroesMaths Conference. @LondMathSoc @IMAmaths @Mathematical_A @NewtonInstitute

POV: The 2nd African Women in Algebra workshop, hosted by the University of Abuja, Nigeria. Meeting these extraordinary ladies has been amazing. The goal: advancing women in Algebra, fostering collaboration amongst us. #BlackHeroesMaths #WomenInAlgebra #AWA #WomenInMath

It was my pleasure to be interviewed by @immunoafrica_ for this episode of Immunology to TB. Here I share my journey as a scientist and our contributions to TB vaccine development.

Thank you to the Millennium Excellence Foundation for the honour bestowed on for excellence in #mathematics and #science in Africa.

Friendly math advice: unless you are a genius like Tao, you will never learn math just by reading a textbook and hoping that you understand things. You actually have to roll up your sleeves, grab a pencil or pen, a notepad, find a quiet place, and do the exercises. Do the math💪

Almost there🥲

Ukubekezela kuzala impumelelo. In this moment, Siphosethu Ndlovu in a wheelchair sang his truth on the UKZN stage, and the entire hall felt it.😭 #UKZNGrad2025 #UKZN #InspiringGreatness #AfricanSchorlaship #AfricanExcellence #Inspired2032

Today, May 6, 2025, the kick-off meeting of the @LondMathSoc -MARM program to be implemented at the University of Lubumbashi was held. Lots of projects, lots of mathematics and a dash of Italianness. Stay tuned. unilu.lms-marm-africa.org

Hurt people hurt people. So how do we heal, together? Not through domination. Not through assimilation. But by returning to what makes us alive. We unite. We nurture. We liberate. Check out my latest article: Have We All Been Hurt? linkedin.com/pulse/have-we-… #healing #belonging

Haha. 4th year PhD's, full blown trauma 😭

📢 Hello Math Teachers I am thrilled to release our free, brief and self-paced @EUErasmusPlus course funded by the @EU_Commission & @Leargas "Educational Neuroscience in Games for Mathematics" led by @ucddublin & @HStartEducation 🎯 Register: EnigmaProject.eu #SDG4

@TheStrugglingS4 Congratulations 👏🏽

It still feels unreal, but… I DID IT! ✨ I'm officially a Doctor now!! ✨ On March 18th, I (Suzanne, the second half of The Struggling Scientists) successfully defended my PhD! 🎓 And the weirdest part? I really enjoyed it! 😄 Of course, Jayron was right there by my side, being the most legendary paranymph ever. 10/10 would recommend bringing your own Jayron. 💪 Don’t worry, we’re not disappearing! We’ll be back soon with new videos, podcasts, and advice to help you fellow Struggling Scientists get to this day too. 🧪🎙️ #PhDone #DoctorVanWouw #PhDLife #StrugglingScientists #PhDDefense #ScienceLife #GraduationDay #ScienceHumor #PhD

@lastvibes - New beginnings where you thought nothing could grow. - Hope sprouting from the cracks of past hurt. - Softness returning to the places hardened by pain.
