In 2014, a woman won the Fields Medal for the first time since it was established. Her story is fascinating because she was representing ordinary girls from all over the world. Her name was Maryam Mirzakhani, and she was from Iran. When Maryam was studying in Iran, there were separate schools for boys and girls. This did not make it easy for her to pursue science. Still, she did not give up. She worked hard and became one of the first Iranian girls to take part in the International Mathematical Olympiad, where she won a gold medal. The following year, she won another gold medal. She completed her early studies in Iran and later went to the United States, where she earned her PhD from Harvard University in 2004. Ten years later, she was awarded the Fields Medal for her important work in the geometry of Riemann surfaces and their moduli spaces. Stories like hers help inspire more women to be included in the world of mathematics.

In 1963, the mathematician Stanisław Ulam noticed an unusual pattern while doodling in his notebook during a presentation. When integers are arranged in a spiral, prime numbers appear to fall along diagonal lines. At first, this is not entirely surprising, since all prime numbers except 2 are odd, and the diagonals of such spirals alternate between odd and even numbers. What is far more striking is that primes tend to cluster along certain diagonals more than others, regardless of whether the spiral begins with 1 at the center or with any other number. Even at a much larger scale, clear diagonal lines of primes remain visible, with some lines more pronounced than others. Although there are conjectures that attempt to explain this pattern, no proof has yet been found.
