Speaker: Dr. Riccardo Pedrotti
Title: Field notes on my first 7 years in the US
Abstract: You already heard me talk about math Wednesday, so for this seminar I decided to share some of the field notes I took in the 7 years I spent in the US, what I found surprisingly nice, bad or just surprising. I wish I had a British accent to do the Attenborough nature documentary, but you’ll have to be ok with the Piero Angela style.
