Description
"Meet a Mathematician" is a podcast Brought to you by Sense Makes Math, a YouTube channel which decrees that Math Does Not Make Sense. Sense, Makes math. Our mission is: To expose the world to the Beauty, Power, and Magic that is the sacred art of Mathematicians. On each episode of “Meet a Mathematician” we conduct interviews with undergraduates, graduate students, post doctoral fellows, professors, and self-identified math people to discuss their personal journey into the world of mathematics.
