The Fields Institute was conceived as a place where mathematics research, innovation and education could flourish.
From our beginnings in a dark barn in Waterloo to the sun-filled space where we are now, one thing remains constant: our desire to foster an inclusive, equitable and collaborative culture where everyone can discover mathematics, and where mathematicians make meaningful contributions to the world.
Dr. Mark Braverman (Princeton University, Abacus Medal 2022) delivers the keynote lecture, "How do you measure surprise?" followed by a robust panel discussion.
