Jim Simons was one of greatest philanthropists of our generation in terms of his support of math and science research through the @SimonsFdn. One of the best years of my career so far was spent at the @SimonsInstitute. Thank you Jim. Your legacy lives on.

“I’m not able to learn mathematics easily, I have to work. It takes a very long time and I have a terrible memory. I forget things. So I try to work, despite these handicaps, and the way I worked was trying to understand really well the simple things.”
