+Prof. Lillian Pierce will be giving a talk titled "March, April, May... March, April, May. A case study" . The aim is to have a 45 minute talk and a 30 minute discussion.  Check out the {{:lillianpierceflyer.pdf|flyer}}. A link to RSVP form TBD.
+**Abstract**: Our personal life and our intellectual life always exist in close proximity. This
+has been especially true since the start of the pandemic. As a result, the mathematical
+work I have been able to do during the pandemic has occurred in quite distinct stages,
+month by month. I will follow this chronology to lightly sketch a case study of how the
+pandemic has affected one mathematician’s work. By performing this case study, I hope
+to bring some relief of recognition to mathematicians who are being affected similarly,
+and also to reflect on what we can do next. A case study is a narrow exercise by
+definition, but we can use such exercises to ask bigger questions, set bigger goals, and
+establish new community practices with the potential to help anyone.

+"Math, Statistics, and My Personal Experiences"
+Miriam Nuño is an Associate Professor in Biostatistics and Associate Professor In Residence in the School of Medicine, Department of Public Health Sciences. Her research focuses on surgical outcomes, methodological development of metrics aimed to improve patient outcomes and comparative effectiveness studies. Dr. Nuño completed her Ph.D. at Cornell University, postdoctoral fellowships at Harvard School of Public Health and University of California Los Angeles prior to co-directing the Center of Neurosurgical Outcomes Research at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center in Los Angeles. Dr. Nuño has more than 60 publications in peer-reviewed journals, in addition to chapters in major textbooks. Recent studies include the identification of factors associated with response to inpatient rehabilitation treatment among traumatic brain injury patients and the overtreatment of heparin-induced thrombocytopenia in surgical ICU patients.
