Emmy Noether

Meet the greatest mathematician of the 20th century – if Einstein says so, we’re not about to disagree!

Emmy fought multiple prejudices all her life – she was a woman, she was Jewish and she came from a left-wing family. All in early 20th century Germany . . .

And yet, her pioneering work in abstract algebra and her proofs of Einstein's theory of relativity still stand today and are the basis of so much of our modern world.

Join Oswin and Carla as we explore Emmy's world. And if you're lucky, you might pick up some of the maths too from Sums Of Anarchy's brilliant Dominique Miranda – with a side order of relativity!
