This event is part of the Distinguished Lecture series, which runs four lectures by leading experts every year. This lecture commemorates Davey Fitch (1978-2019), the first Business Development Officer for the University of Edinburgh School of Mathematics. The lecture aims to highlight the impact of Mathematical Sciences.
Abstract:
"During this talk, I will sketch how studying mathematics unfolded into a career crisscrossing the line between science and startup businesses, for a lifetime. We will see some success, some failures, but above all I hope to convey the tremendous joy in working on the overlap. Some of the technical topics we will encounter are data storage, chip design, machine learning and devops as well as a simple mathematical and business perspectives to illustrate some things that went well and some that didn’t complete."
About the speaker:
Peter Braam is a scientist and entrepreneur mostly focused on problems in very large scale scientific computing. Originally trained as a mathematician by Sir Michael Atiyah, he was an academic at several institutions including Oxford, CMU and Cambridge.
 One of his many startup companies developed the Lustre file system which is very widely used. Since 2014 he has focused on computing for the SKA telescope, machine learning for science and holds visiting professorships at Oxford and Waseda (Tokyo). He also rekindled his study of deep mathematics.

愛丁堡老城

苏河家园

英國愛丁堡舊城依山近海，密佈中世紀石頭建築，景色優美。愛丁堡不僅是金融重鎮，更是藝術的殿堂，走在大街上，隨處可見藝人歡樂的表演。這裡是蘇格蘭傳統服飾格裙起源地，藝術與生活的交融讓人流連忘返，值得一遊。

荷里路德宮

_TI***3h

荷里路德宮位於皇家英里大道的盡頭，自16世紀以來一直是皇家住所，其前身修道院始建於1128年（至今仍屹立於此）。作為一座仍在使用的宮殿，荷里路德宮絕對是您愛丁堡之旅的必遊之地。但請不要將其與倫敦的白金漢宮相提並論，因為除了都是君主住所之外，兩者在其他方面都截然不同。有些房間充滿了歷史的痕跡，並出現在著名的畫作中。其中一間是蘇格蘭女王瑪麗的寢宮，她的摯友正是在這裡在她面前被殺害的（據說，在他遺體被放置的地方還留有一處血跡）。總而言之，這將是一次令人難忘的沉浸式體驗，我強烈推薦您參觀這座宮殿。也別忘了參觀荷里路德修道院，它是愛丁堡最古老的建築之一，其遺址保存完好，極具歷史韻味。

卡爾頓山

登山

卡爾頓山是愛丁堡標誌性景點，其以新古典主義建築群、360度城市全景和豐富的文化活動而聞名。設計靈感以雅典帕特農神廟為藍本，山頂上希臘式立柱恢宏雄偉，像一座被時光凝固的神廟骨架，靜靜守護著愛丁堡。&zwnj;
