In 2007, Kerry became the first female mathematics professor at The University of Melbourne. Now, recently retired from the university, she is not slowing down.
In this podcast, Kerry talks about her career in applied mathematics, some of the people who have impacted her life over the years, the twists and turns when it comes to what her research has focussed on, and what she’s doing now in retirement to make a difference.
