Speakers
Professor Carola-Bibiane Schönlieb (Girton 2007 and Fellow of Jesus)

Carola-Bibiane Schönlieb is Professor of Applied Mathematics at the Department of Applied Mathematics and Theoretical Physics, University of Cambridge. Together with her Cambridge Image Analysis group she does research on mathematical methods for image analysis and inverse imaging problems. She has active interdisciplinary collaborations with clinicians, biologists and physicists on biomedical imaging topics, chemical engineers and plant scientists on image sensing, as well as collaborations with artists and art conservators on digital art restoration. Her research has been acknowledged by scientific prizes, among them the LMS Whitehead Prize 2016 and the Calderon Prize 2019.
Professor Dhruv Ranganathan (Fellow at St John's College)

Dhruv is a Professor of Mathematics at the Department of Pure Mathematics and Mathmatical Statictics, University of Cambridge, and a fellow at St. John's College. His research concerns algebraic geometry, with a focus on connections to combinatorics through a network of ideas called tropical geometry. Dhruv teaches algebraic geometry to both undergraduate and Part III students. He has supervised over 25 undergraduate summer research projects since 2014 and is a director of the Cambridge Summer Research in Mathematics Programm. His work is currently supported by grants from EPSRC.
