‟Math in the Age of Social Media” by Álvaro Lozano-Robledo <alvaro.lozano-robledo@uconn.edu>, University of Connecticut

Abstract:

In this talk I will discuss my experiences posting mathematics on social media, and why, how, and what do I post. In particular, I will talk about how mathematics researchers can use technology to improve public perception of mathematics and, in particular, how one can use social media platforms, such as Instagram, TikTok or YouTube, to move the needle and create engaging mathematical content that has a math-positive spin to counter the prevalent math phobia in our society.
