In the second of these papers, the first version of the famous SIR (Susceptible, Infected, Recovered) model appears. Recently discovered manuscripts show that Hudson alone was responsible for the model and for a further result, neither of which she has been given due credit for. In this talk, Prof Barrow-Green will explain how Hudson, a Cambridge-trained geometer known for her work on Cremona transformations, came to work with Ross and why her contribution is only now receiving the recognition it deserves.BiographyProfessor June Barrow-Green is an Emeritus Professor of History of Mathematics in the Open University. June join the Open University as a full-time PhD student in 1989, after studying BSc in Mathematics and MSc in Mathematical Physics at Kings College London. Prior to academic career she worked in an art gallery in London and in the City.Her research focuses on the history of 19th-20th century mathematics, particularly in Britain, and the history of the gender gap in mathematics, and the representation of women in mathematics as portrayed through a variety of media.She was the chair of the International Commission on the History of Mathematics, and President of the British Society for the History of Mathematics (BSHM). In 2025, she was awarded the LMS/BSHM Hirst Prize for her research and leadership in history of mathematics. In 2021, she was awarded the Royal Society Wilkins-Bernal-Medawar Medal for my research in 19th and 20th century mathematics. https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events5/banners/e4b8d500-423e-11f1-a0ab-0137025ce733-rimg-w987-h740-dcffffff-gmir.jpg Women in Maths NetworkWomen in Maths is a group created to connect women, minorities and allies at various life and career stages at the University of Liverpool.
