The Ramsey Theory Podcast: No Strangers At This Party

The "Ramsey Theory Podcast: No Strangers At This Party" is created by a group of students from Simon Fraser University under the supervision of Veselin Jungic. This podcast celebrates Ramsey theory and the people working in this dynamic field of modern mathematics. Through their conversations with undergraduate students, some of today's most notable Ramsey theorists talk about their first experiences with mathematics, their times as undergraduate and graduate students, their views about Ramsey theory and mathematics in general, and about their research interests.
