Jack Davidson, University of Sheffield, presented his PhD research today to 40 of our Sixth Formers at our lunch time STEM seminar. Jack introduced his talk by proposing that a circle and a square are the same shape! Once he explained the basics of Algebraic Topology using the sphere and torus it all became clear! All very inspirational and lots of discussion and questioning from the students.
