The U3A is all about enjoyment and learning,<br />

and this is particularly evident in the U3A<br />

Vall del Pop, whose members hold their General<br />

Assembly generally, fiestas and holidays<br />

permitting, on the first Thursday of each month<br />

at the Centre Polivalent in Murla, and have a<br />

diverse range of some 30 groups for the interest<br />

of the members.<br />

Joining the mathematical elite<br />

by Simon Russell<br />

JAIME Gomez, a leading professor and lecturer<br />

at the Valencia Polytechnic University<br />

(UPV), has been awarded what is largely regarded<br />

as the highest distinction in the field<br />

of mathematics.<br />

The William Christian Krumbein medal is<br />

considered the “Nobel Prize” of mathematics and<br />

is only awarded once every two years, meaning<br />

there have only even been 32 people who have<br />

been given the honour since its inauguration<br />

in 1976. The award is made by the International<br />

Association for Mathematical Geosciences<br />

(IMAG) and is for Mr Gomez’ work in the fields of<br />

informatics, earth sciences and in particular hydrogeology<br />

where he has done valuable work on<br />

the sustainability of aquifers in the Mediterranean<br />

environment in the light of climate change.<br />

The award ceremony will be in Delhi (India)<br />

in March.<br />
