In this episode of On A Tangent, Simone is joined by Edith Hübner, a doctoral researcher in topology. We learn about her journey from physics to mathematics, what headbutting gnomes can teach young children, and the mysteries of infinity categories.

Episode 7: From Headbutting Gnomes to Infinity Categories, with Edith Hübner

Welcome to "On A Tangent", where we tell the stories behind the mathematics. In each episode, we meet a different early career mathematician from Mathematics Münster, and learn about their research, their path towards mathematics, and their hopes for the future. We explore the many different shapes that mathematical research can take, the early memories that led people towards the subject, and try to understand a little bit better the voices that make the mathematical community of today.

Hosted by Simone Ramello, produced by the science communication team of Mathematics Münster
