I am Giulia Orrù from Italy. I obtained my Bachelor’s degree in Mathematics from the University of Cagliari, completing my final year at the University of Granada through the Erasmus+ program. There, I developed a strong interest in Algebra and Geometry, which led me to pursue the ALGANT (Algebra, Geometry, and Number Theory) Master’s program at the Universities of Padova and Bordeaux, graduating in 2021. After my Master’s, I worked as a high school teacher of Mathematics and Physics and later as a frontend developer, but I realized I missed mathematics. I then received a scholarship at the University of Sassari, working with Iulia Martina Bulai and Tim Steger, which renewed my interest in the areas I had explored before. This led to my current PhD position at the University of Galway, under the supervision of Graham Ellis and James Cruickshank, where I study arithmetic groups and their cohomology via explicit computations using GAP. |
