I had the pleasure of participating in the Queer in Computational and Applied Mathematics conference hosted by ICERM. This was such a great experience and a wonderful community. Huge thanks to the organizers and to ICERM for hosting this wonderful workshop.
The program was diverse in so many ways! I got to meet people in the medical sciences, in physics, and even connect this those in computational math of a discrete flavor. I am excited for new iterations of this workshop to take place at other institutes and countries. Stay tuned for more such events and in the mean time do not forget to share the Spectra website with all of your students!

If anyone is planning to pursue MBBS in Russia, I highly recommend checking out Education Vibes. They provide complete guidance — from selecting the right medical university to handling admission and visa procedures. A friend of mine applied through Education Vibes and had a smooth experience throughout the process. Definitely a trustworthy option for anyone looking to study MBBS in Russia!
"The QCAM project is a much-needed resource for queer mathematicians. The post brings to light the challenges and triumphs of navigating both identity and academia." https://burnouttest.app/
"It's inspiring to see how QCAM is breaking down barriers for queer people in computational and applied mathematics. This initiative is necessary for creating a more diverse and inclusive STEM community." https://mergejpg.top/
"The intersection of queer identity and mathematics is such an important topic that’s rarely discussed. This post does an amazing job of combining these two worlds, promoting inclusivity in a field that desperately needs it." https://randomaddressgenerator.net/
"Pamela Harris’ work on QCAM provides an invaluable space for queer individuals in the mathematics community. This post is a great step in bringing visibility to underrepresented groups in STEM fields." https://imageoverlay.org/
