Academic Salaries

Recently, I was introduced to lol my thesis: Summing up years of work in one sentence. Here's a taste of what you'll find on the site:

"Women mathematicians in film are young and exceedingly attractive; male mathematicians in film are old, white and socially inept (except Jeff Goldblum in Jurassic Park)"
Science Communication, Imperial College London
'The Image of the Mathematician in Western Cinema'
