UCLA数学教授Richard Wong分享会

关于数学这个大热专业，很多小伙伴们或许都在一边迷茫一边卷生卷死，又或者有想法继续深造却又不知道该如何申请，也害怕申请博士后面临的生活不是自己所期待的。

本次panel 我们UCLA联萌科研就帮大家请到了目前在UCLA任职的Adjunct Professor -- Richard Wong，直接和我们本科生同学沟通交流，让大家可以了解真实的硕博之路，机会难得，快点保存好会议链接和时间！

本次panel会涉及到以下内容：

What mathematics research is and looks like?
Pros and cons of graduate studies in mathematics.
advice for undergraduate students, and sharing his path through academia

panel中，Richard教授也会给大家中间休息的时间和很多提问时间，请大家珍惜这次机会，ask tons of questions！

也欢迎大家在文末问卷中或者panel时踊跃提问！

Richard Wong 教授介绍

I am an Assistant Adjunct Professor in Mathematics at UCLA. I'm part of the algebraic topology group, and my mentor is Mike Hill. I received my Ph.D. in 2021 from the University of Texas at Austin, where I was advised by Andrew Blumberg. Previously I was an undergraduate at Rutgers University, where I graduated in 2015 with highest honors in mathematics and a minor in cognitive science.

My research interests are in computations in (equivariant, stable) homotopy theory. For example, I apply the computational methods of homotopy theory to answer questions about the modular representation theory of finite groups.

Teaching and communicating mathematics is an important part of my mathematical identity, and I value the impact that I have as an educator. It is for this reason that I am committed to inclusive and equitable teaching that affirms and empowers students.

Similarly, I have been involved with a number of outreach efforts. I am committed to actively promoting and supporting diversity, inclusivity, and equity in mathematics. I believe that in order to make mathematics more accessible and inclusive for all, one must actively work to break down the systemic barriers that exist due to ace, gender, socio-economic background.
