SUMMARY:Science on the Big Screen. Women in STEM presents: Calculating Ada: The Countess of computing
DESCRIPTION:<p>	We will screen and discuss “Calculating Ada: The Countess of Computing” a documentary unveiling the life and legacy of Ada Lovelace, considered a prophet of computer age.  </p><p style="text-align: center;">	<drupal-media data-entity-type="media" data-entity-uuid="742b39a1-a7fc-4d55-9282-78f00e4547fc" alt="cine ada"></drupal-media></p><p>	“Ada Lovelace was a most unlikely computer pioneer. In this film, Dr Hannah Fry tells the story of Ada's remarkable life. Born in the early 19th century, Ada was a countess of the realm, a scandalous socialite and an 'enchantress of numbers'. The film is an enthralling tale of how a life infused with brilliance, but blighted by illness and gambling addiction, helped give rise to the modern era of computing.”</p><p>	<strong>Speakers: </strong>Eva Gil González, Postdoctoral Fellow at the Harvard John A. Paulson School of Engineering and Applied Sciences; Marta Pérez, Postdoctoral fellow at the MassGeneral Institute of Neurodegenerative Disease (MIND) and affiliate of Harvard Medical School. </p><p>	<strong>Sponsors: </strong> RCC; Science@RCC. </p>
