Fascination Science public lecture Tuesday (30 July) - THE LIFE OF PI

Joachim from Albany

Our next lecture in the Fascination Science series is on Tuesday 30 July from 7pm-8.30pm in the Sir Neil Waters Lecture Theatre at Massey University's Auckland campus in Albany.

THE LIFE OF PI

In this talk, Professor Rod Downey, awarded the Rutherford Medal in 2018, will examine the history of how we began to understand the number pi over the last four millennia. This is also the story of the development of a branch of modern mathematics called analysis; a story still being told today.

Poll: Do you think NZ should ban social media for youth?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

The Australian Prime Minister has expressed plans to ban social media use for children.

This would make it illegal for under 16-year-olds to have accounts on platforms including TikTok, Instagram, Facebook and X.
Social media platforms would be tasked with ensuring children have no access (under-age children and their parents wouldn’t be penalised for breaching the age limit)
.
