Maryna Viazovska, a mathematician from Kyiv, was awarded the Fields Medal in 2022 for solving sphere packing in eight-dimensional space. Her proof ran to 23 pages; the three-dimensional case had taken 300. She is only the second woman to receive the medal.
Maryna Viazovska stands before two green chalkboards filled with handwritten mathematical equations and definitions, holding a small open notebook.
