Fascination Science public lecture Tuesday (30 July) - THE LIFE OF PI
Our next lecture in the Fascination Science series is on Tuesday 30 July from 7pm-8.30pm in the Sir Neil Waters Lecture Theatre at Massey University's Auckland campus in Albany.
THE LIFE OF PI
In this talk, Professor Rod Downey, awarded the Rutherford Medal in 2018, will examine the history of how we began to understand the number pi over the last four millennia. This is also the story of the development of a branch of modern mathematics called analysis; a story still being told today.
