Emily Russell, Post Doctoral Fellow at ICERM.
The Beautiful Intersection Between Math and Music in the form of English bell ringing, a tradition from the early 1600's. The bell ringing tradition is very deeply rooted in the mathematics of group theory. In fact, there have been mathematical theorems proven which are very much drawn out of bell ringing.
Emily Russell completed her PhD in Physics at Harvard University under the supervision of Professor David Weitz. Her research interests lie in describing how local interactions drive the global structure and behavior of complex systems; during her PhD work, she examined such phenomena experimentally in charged colloidal systems, and she now focuses on combining her physical intuition with a mathematical understanding of more general systems.
