Hello! My name is Padi Fuster Aguilera and I am an NSF MPS Ascend postdoctoral fellow at the University of Colorado Boulder. I obtained my Ph.D. at Tulane University. My research interests are Partial Differential Equations and Riemannian Geometry.
I co-founded the conference Math For All (a conference with the goal of creating a welcoming environment for all), and Meet a Mathematician (a collection of short video interviews to mathematicians from historically excluded backgrounds).

I stand in solidarity with the hundreds of Amazon and Google workers bravely calling for Google and Amazon to immediately cancel their $1.2 billion contract for Project Nimbus and stop doing business with the Israeli apartheid government and military. If you are a mathematician, read and sign this BDS pledge here.
