معرفی
Shaula Fiorelli is a Research Fellow at the Department of Mathematics, University of Geneva. She serves as a Scientific Collaborator and leads popularization efforts at NCCR SwissMAP since 2018, and co-manages Mathscope, an interactive math discovery center for schools since 2015. She holds a PhD in Mathematics (2009) under Thierry Vust, focusing on geometric problems involving circles tangent to conics. Her research interests include geometry, probability, and mathematics education. Notably, she co-won the 2012 Prix d'Alembert for a triptych of popularization projects, including the exhibition *Les jeux sont faits! hasard et Probabilités*. She has organized numerous outreach events like *Nuit de la Science* and collaborated on projects blending math with botany and urban heritage. Her work emphasizes bridging academic research with public engagement through interactive exhibits, educational programs, and interdisciplinary collaborations.
