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 />
