Dec 07, 2025 I am very happy to share with you that the XXVIII Brazilian Algebra Meeting (Escola de Álgebra) will take place at the Institute of Mathematics and Computer Science of the University of São Paulo (ICMC-USP), in São Carlos, Brazil, from June 29 to July 3, 2026. I will be participating at the XXVIII BAM by giving a mini-course on “Lie ring methods in group theory”. Further information is available on the event website: https://algebra2026.icmc.usp.br
Nov 28, 2025 I am so glad to announce that the inauguration ceremony of the exhibition “Ritratti di Matematiche dal mondo: un progetto partecipativo tra mostre, laboratori e attività per scuole e cittadinanza” took place on Thursday, 27 November 2025 at 5:00 PM at the ER-GO University Residence San Filippo Neri in Modena. The initiative, a Public Engagement project, promoted by the University of Modena and Reggio Emilia and the Department of Physics, Computer Science and Mathematics at UNIMORE with the patronage of several associations, brings to Modena for the first time the international exhibition Women of Mathematics from around the World – A Gallery of Portraits. It is a visual and narrative journey intertwining science and life, with the goal of highlighting the presence of women in mathematical research and promoting scientific culture from an inclusive perspective. The project is organized in two phases: after the exhibition at the Residence San Filippo Neri (27 November – 11 December 2025), it will continue at the Mathematics Building of the Department of Physics, Computer Science and Mathematics at UNIMORE (February – March 2026) with workshops and activities for local schools. Further details are available at webpage of the project https://www.ritrattidimatematiche.unimore.it/
