Paths to Math: Shira Tanny | Institute for Advanced Study

This installment of our "Paths to Math" video series features Shira Tanny, AMIAS Member in the Institute for Advanced Study’s School of Mathematics.

Shira’s work explores symplectic geometry, combining the study of geometry and Hamiltonian dynamics. Watch to learn how her interest in math was fostered by reading books by Paul Hoffman and Donal O’Shea, and how the creativity required to solve mathematical problems inspires her to this day.

“Paths to Math” chronicles the academic journeys of individual scholars and the moments that ignited their passion for math. With each unique story, this series celebrates the universality of mathematics and the inclusive community of practitioners at IAS, spanning a deep array of backgrounds, interests, geography, ethnicity, and gender.

“Paths to Math” is produced by OFC (ofc.tv)
