It’s Not Just Numbers

By Marcello Seri & Marit van Straaten

A podcast on mathematics and its human side.
In a conversation with mathematicians, we address some common stereotypes and misconceptions, giving space to the people of mathematics.
Each episode will start by getting to know the guests, their research, their drive and what they do outside mathematics. In the second half of the episode we will discuss together some theme related to mathematics and mathematicians.

The podcast is produced by Marcello Seri and Marit van Straaten.

In this conversation, we introduce ourselves and share our far from linear paths to mathematics, discussing both our work, our experience of doing mathematics. Towards the end we touch upon what it is like to do a PhD in mathematics.
