On March 16, 2020, the Simons Institute closed its doors temporarily in response to the COVID-19 pandemic. All of the Institute’s activities migrated online — research programs, workshops, workshops, collaboration meetings, even daily tea. In this episode of Simons Institute Polylogues, Director Shafi Goldwasser interviews a group of program organizers and participants about research resilience under quarantine.
The Simons Institute is delighted to announce the launch of our new documentary web series, Theory Shorts, which explores the research taking place in our programs.
