INI NEWS BULLETIN Dear friends, associates and supporters of INI, Welcome to the September 2021 edition of our monthly news bulletin. We hope it finds you well, wherever you are receiving this message. This month, we're excited to share images of a recent event celebrating the mathematical legacy of INI founding Director Sir Michael Atiyah. We also have a video interview (the first "non-virtual" example since before the pandemic) with the organisers of the ongoing "Cluster algebras and representation theory" (CAR) programme, an uplifting podcast interview on the subject of transgender identity within mathematics with Professor Bethany Marsh (Leeds), downloadable posters detailing the programmes and workshops happening in 2021 and coming in 2022, and information about the CAR programme's forthcoming Rothschild lecture from Professor Bernhard Keller (Paris). Our "news in brief" this month is that...

From 23-25 September INI hosted the event "The unity of mathematics: A conference in honour of Sir Michael Atiyah". Our warm thanks go out to everybody that was able to attend this exciting, forward-looking event at which many old connections were rekindled and new connections were forged.

VIDEO: interview with organisers of the "Cluster algebras and representation theory" programme. (above) Professors Karin Baur and Sibylle Schroll, co-organisers of the CAR programme. The "Cluster algebras and representation theory" programme has been running since 6 September and continues until 17 December, with participants attending both in person at INI in Cambridge and connecting online with the workshops, seminars and discussions. In this video interview, organisers Karin Baur, Bethany Marsh, Ralf Schiffler and Sibylle Schroll discuss its theme, challenges and potential outcomes in the months and years to come. LIVING PROOF PODCAST: Becoming Bethany Marsh, life as a transgender Professor of Mathematics (above) Professor Bethany Marsh. In episode #33 of Living Proof, Dan Aspel and Christie Marr welcome Professor Bethany Marsh (Leeds), an organiser of the “Cluster algebras and representation theory” (CAR) programme. Bethany was awarded the Whitehead prize in 2009 and has dedicated her career to the study and exploration of mathematical themes. However, it has only been within the last two years that she has fulfilled a long-held desire to transition gender and to live her life as a trans woman. Bethany shares the many positives this change has brought to her life, and the reactions she has encountered from friends and colleagues along the way.
POSTER: programmes and workshops in 2021 and 2022 INI produces annual posters detailing our programme and workshop schedules in an easy to digest visual style. The disruption brought by the pandemic had considerable impact upon our scheduling, but corrected posters for 2020, 2021 and 2022 are now available to view and download via the link below. Please help us by distributing these widely amongst your networks. ROTHSCHILD LECTURE: "Cluster algebras and representation theory" by Professor Bernhard Keller, 16:00-17:00, 4 October 2021.
