SCIENTIFIC ACTIVITIES

The Back2Fields Colloquium Series celebrates the accomplishments of former postdoctoral fellows of Fields Institute thematic programs. Over the past two decades, these programs attracted the rising stars of their fields and often launched very distinguished research careers. As part of the 20th anniversary celebrations, this series of colloquium talks will allow a general mathematical public to become familiar with some of their work.
