Scientific Committee, consisting of twelve leading women mathematicians, has now been established jointly by the EuropeanMathematical Society (EMS) and EWM. The membership of the committee is as follows:
Viviane Baladi (ENS, Paris, France)
Eva Bayer-Fluckiger (Lausanne, Switzerland)
Christine Bernardi (Paris VI, France)
Christine Bessenrodt (Hannover, Germany)
Antonella Grassi (U Penn, USA)
Ursula Hamenstaedt (Bonn, Germany)
Dusa McDuff (Stony Brook, USA)
Ragni Piene (Oslo, Norway)
Vera Sos (Renyi Institute, Budapest, Hungary)
Ulrike Tillmann (Oxford, UK), chair
Nina Uraltseva (St Petersburg, Russia)
Michele Vergne (Ecole Polytechnique, Paris, France)
The committee’s remit is to provide advice to the EMS and EWM
on scientific questions involving women and mathematics, such as
suggesting scientific topics and speakers for the biennial EWM
meetings. Its members are currently being asked for advice about the
next EWM general meeting, which will be held in Novi Sad in
August 2009, and the 3rd Nordic summer school (June 2009).
With best wishes,
Sylvie Paycha (Chair, EMS Committee for Women and Mathematics)
Frances Kirwan (Convenor, EWM)
