Hello everyone! Eleonora here (the one wearing the dress, my sister Aurora is the incredible one who actually MADE the dress!). I'm so happy people are appreciating her work!
I see a lot of people asking about my research. I'm doing mathematical physics (but just as a second-year PhD student!). My main work focuses on number theory and its applications to black holes. It's a very niche field and I'm currently writing my first paper (should hopefully be out within 1-2 months). I've done previous work on astrofluiddynamics, but I'm mainly a mathematician now.
I'm working as much as I can to make STEM accessible, and dismantling stereotypes about these amazing fields. Me and my sister wanted to show the connection between art and mathematics (in fact, we made a series on our Instagrams eleonorasvanberg and aurei.crochet where we go through the mathematics behind this dress). And of course, sustainability as well. It felt like a good opportunity to make a statement about the things we believe in.
With that being said, if you have any questions please reach out on instagram, happy to talk more! I don't hang out on Reddit too much but our mother's colleuge sent a screenshot of this post and I had to comment!
Thank you for the love, stay curious and creative <3
Yay! I’m a hardcore knitter (and elementary school teacher), and I love telling people how much math is in knitting. Like — this sweater I’m working on now? Stitch gauge and how it increased when I got to the colorwork. Found out my bust measurement was between two pattern sizes, so I had to decide whether to use a bigger needle or go with a larger size. Oh, and then all the ratios that are needed to write a pattern in multiple sizes. Fascinating!
For those who don’t know, she’s a badass. Eleonora Svanberg is doing the work to inspire young people, especially girls, to love math and science. As a PhD student in mathematical physics at Oxford, she founded the non-profit Girls in STEM, published a book to build confidence in math, and uses her large social media platform to break down stereotypes in STEM. She’s collaborated with organizations like UNESCO and the Nobel Prize Foundation and has received awards for her advocacy.
Daaaang. What's she researching/published recently in the field? On top of everything else ofc. It's cool if you dk, I can just Google, but it's nice to chat w ppl instead sometimes.
Edit: nvm found out - " Svanberg's research focuses on using geometry and number theory to understand black holes, particularly the modularity and arithmetic of Calabi- Yau manifolds."
The mathematics that works on the properties of numbers also works on the properties of black holes. She works on to what extent it does. I think that's as simple as I can make it without being wrong.
I wonder if she's worked with Brian Greene, I've read a lot of his books (which are brilliant and I highly recommend!). He's worked on Calabi-yau geometry. From what I remember, Calabi-yau shapes are multidimensional - folded up in more dimensions than our usual 3D shapes so they're hard to visualize in our brains. There's theories that our universe is actually made of 10, possibly 11 dimensions, but most of the dimensions are folded up super tiny into a specific calabi-yau shape.
Have you watched A Man on the Inside yet? I recently watched it and loved it. Same creator, with Ted Danson in the lead with a very Michael-esque character. Has the same warm fuzzy feeling that I love from The Good Place. Highly recommend.
Yeh I love it, Ted Danson is such a loveable actor! I also watched through Schitt's Creek recently and enjoyed it way more than I thought I would, entirely due to Catherine O'Hara's silly accents
Having watched several of Veritasium's video on maths and physics, it's become evident to me that unless you have a mind that works that way, it just isn't understandable.
It turns I don't have a mind that works that way and hence didn't understand the vast majority of it. But I am very glad that there are clever people around who do all these wonderful things.
I've felt the same way about some of those videos, but having gone from learning order of operations to university calculus in the past two years, you can make your mind work that way.
But it's a tall order to get familiar enough with maths to just understand some of it, even on a superficial level.
Some people are just not able to understand stuff like this. I had to take calc in college and no matter how hard I studied, it just didn’t make sense. Oceanography, otoh, comes so easily to me. Ecology and evolutionary biology as well.
Obviously I can't speak for your experience, but it's my experience that math builds on itself, and that jumping ahead and trying to understand concepts without having built that base is asking for trouble. I say this as someone who needs to learn it three different ways to make it stick. Geniuses and savants aside, it doesn't come easily to anybody.
I had to take calc twice, and the teacher makes all the difference. The second time around I had a woman who would explained things multiple ways, because some explanations will click better than others.
The other secret is that astrophysics doesn’t necessarily make sense to the experts either. They tolerate some impossible truths. No one is able to truly understand it.
Imagine a black hole is crumpling up spacetime like you would crumple up a sheet of paper into a ball.
There are many many ways that crumpled paper can be arranged, but there are some ways that can't/won't happen. The paper won't spontaneously go through itself, holes won't just appear, etc.
As I understand it she's essentially studying the possible ways that space can fold while still maintaining things like symmetries that are fundamental to how we understand the universe.
I took a look at her Scholar profile - she hasn't published much (or recently), which makes sense as she is still a PhD student. It seems she's been focusing on the science communication and outreach front instead, and in that avenue she's been incredibly successful.
Good Science communication is more important than ever given the current rounds of attack on Science.
I really wish more universities would take Science and Community outreach more seriously. Even low cost projects (relative to research) can have amazing impact and make your immediate Community interested in Science
This is true. I'm currently writing up my first paper as a PhD student (damn mathematics research takes a long time!!), hopefully the paper will be out within a month or two. I'm very proud of it!
Congratulations! Yes, academia moves agonisingly slowly - my participants are always surprised when I tell them they can expect the paper to be out in one to two years. Best of luck with the submission!
I shared some classes with her during my exchange in Stockholm during my bachelor's. I already knew it back then, she's the most brilliant student I've ever met, by far. She worked hard to get her PhD. and she does so many things it's impressive ! Using her platform for so many incredible things as well. We really need more people like her in academia.
They don't tell you why you get invited, but my guess is because of the outreach work I've done in Sweden (I'm Swedish!) and I've also worked with the Nobel Prize foundation the last years to highlight the human side of the Nobel Prize laureates, and their discoveries. I find it important to highlight this for especially the young generation that might be curious about science.
Thank you for your outreach and advocacy work. Here in the US, we're being led down a dark path of science denialism. So encouraging to see intelligent people empowering others!
Her dress is a Penrose diagram! In General Relativity, these are used to map causality around black holes and theoretical constructs like wormholes and white holes.
I love astrophysics, black holes, weird stars, all that stuff. I would have kept studying it in college if calculus and I made better friends. I consider myself pretty space informed for a non-scientist. But somehow I've never been able to wrap my head around Penrose diagrams. They sure look neat though. And the dress is awesome.
Absolutely beautiful dress on a beautiful woman. I wish the Nobel Prize committee didn't shit the bed with the Peace Prize because the other winners seem wonderful.
Different committees and different ceremonies, three Swedish ones pick the proper Nobel prizes which are presented in Stockholm. The Norwegian committee picks and presents the peace prize separately.

So happy you found this post!!! Thank you for making women/girls feel included in STEM. I have a little girl and I'm excited to tell her all about you when she wakes up this morning. Have a great day!!💕💕
As a woman actively prevented from going into university physics in the 1960s, daughter of a woman who won a scholarship to do chemistry in the 1930s and was sent to secretarial college instead, with terminal left-handedness that discouraged others from teaching her to knit or crochet, I am soooooooooo impressed with you two, and so happy your parents allowed the flowering of your amazing talents!
I just showed this post to my 4th grade daughter — she’s very impressed and went to find her wow in the world book about space. (Oh and she’s getting a little how to crochet kit for Christmas — so she’s on a good track clearly)
I'm a woman in STEM (mathematical statistics) and it's because of amazing women like you that I finally felt belonging in the field. I kept going down every wrong path for over 10 years because I was terrified to actually pursue the thing that made me tick. Your advocacy MATTERS so much more than I can ever express. Thank you for using your voice and your platform to pave the way so that women and girls have space (haha 🌌) in this field.
(Also it's not fair, some people truly have it all...you have the gall to be ridiculously smart, talented, driven, and then also look like a movie star on the red carpet with the most perfect bespoke dress? God clearly has favorites 😂)
Hi Doc, just wanted to know that I shared this post with my 9 year old daughter who loves both stem and dresses! We learned a little bit about you she was so excited to see all that you have accomplished! Thanks for being awesome and best of lick to you in the future! And your sister is very talented!
incredibly bummed out i don’t have instagram! i’ll try and keep an eye out for your paper though!
incredible dress and i’ve seen girls in stem pop up from time to time — keep up the good work. hopefully won’t be the last time i see your sisters work either ✨ (and congratulations :)
I'm doing my part. I’m so average that I have an event horizon. Any attention directed at me, positive or negative, gets sucked in and never returns. I’m the cosmic equivalent of ‘meh."
The world would be a better and happier place if these are the women, and women like them, that got loads of attention. And articles and subreddits and everything dedicated to their intelligence and talent. More of this every day please.

I hope I can ask this appropriately. Is the focal point a kind of double entendre to do with femininity and power? Am I too stupid to understand even a dress?
She looks absolutely stunning and that's the kind of representation in STEM we love to see. A theoretical physicist serving looks and breaking stereotypes.
She’s the physical embodiment of that Tumblr post that’s like:
Once I get my mental health straightened out, get fit, find a makeup routine that’s flattering, finish my PhD, and get a job, it’s over for you bitches.
She’s done all of it. Look at her out there living the dream and looking fantastic while she does it
All the wealthy have one of a kind dresses, but how many can say that theirs was made with love? What a gorgeous dress and way to appreciate each other.

Thank you for the love, stay curious and creative <3
[What is Spotlight?](https://developers.reddit.com/apps/spotlight-app)
aaaaand I'm obsessed
She is about as cool as you can theoretically get.
I see what you did there.
They asked me how well I understood theoretical physics.
I said I had a theoretical degree in physics.
They said welcome aboard.
I shoot that guy every single fucking playthrough
I wanna get physical.
Something something celestial body.
Agree
I hear she’s very deep too, at least her research is very vast. She has an unquantifiable quality about her.
She looks like every FMC in an Ali Hazelwood novel and I love it
My dumbass seeing this acronym “fuck marry cill”
This made me laugh out loud
Female Main Character
That is the first thing I thought too!
lol I thought about Ali Hazelwood as well!
As a crocheter myself, I am FULLY OBSESSEDDDD!!
I'm always impressed my crocheters and knitters, you are so technical, mathematical and creative! Incredible handcraft.
Yay! I’m a hardcore knitter (and elementary school teacher), and I love telling people how much math is in knitting. Like — this sweater I’m working on now? Stitch gauge and how it increased when I got to the colorwork. Found out my bust measurement was between two pattern sizes, so I had to decide whether to use a bigger needle or go with a larger size. Oh, and then all the ratios that are needed to write a pattern in multiple sizes. Fascinating!
Thank you! I started by knitting, been crocheting more lately!
Do I come in here and mess with your board???
There are no wrong answers on my board

Seriously, how can you not be? She's literally changing the face of science advocacy.
coolest person on the planet
dude right? she is right out of a book.
My love for her is not theoretical

Edit: nvm found out - " Svanberg's research focuses on using geometry and number theory to understand black holes, particularly the modularity and arithmetic of Calabi- Yau manifolds."
So cool
So, obviously I totally understand what she’s researching but could someone else please explain it using small words?
The mathematics that works on the properties of numbers also works on the properties of black holes. She works on to what extent it does. I think that's as simple as I can make it without being wrong.
I love how you put that. Thank you.
I almost get that, thanks :)
I wonder if she's worked with Brian Greene, I've read a lot of his books (which are brilliant and I highly recommend!). He's worked on Calabi-yau geometry.

Good Lord, I’m on the verge of telling Chidi “sure, we’ve all seen the time knife.”
It's just the way it works. It's—it's Jeremy Bearimy. I don't know what to tell you. That's the easiest way to describe it.
Welp, here I go watching through The Good Place again...
Have you watched A Man on the Inside yet? I recently watched it and loved it. Same creator, with Ted Danson in the lead with a very Michael-esque character. Has the same warm fuzzy feeling that I love from The Good Place. Highly recommend.
Yeh I love it, Ted Danson is such a loveable actor! I also watched through Schitt's Creek recently and enjoyed it way more than I thought I would, entirely due to Catherine O'Hara's silly accents

No argument here. I'm an academic - considering the current state of the academic job market, I'd even suggest that it's the smarter career move.
This is true. I'm currently writing up my first paper as a PhD student (damn mathematics research takes a long time!!), hopefully the paper will be out within a month or two. I'm very proud of it!
Congratulations! Yes, academia moves agonisingly slowly - my participants are always surprised when I tell them they can expect the paper to be out in one to two years. Best of luck with the submission!
I feel like I’m seeing a famous person on the street. You are a delight!!!
Congratulations on your achievements! You're an inspiration to our girls (sincerely, mom of an AGSS member)
It’s important that at least some scientists become journalists and politicians.
For example, during the pandemic nearly everyone in my country was glad that our chancellor was a former scientist.
Wow this comment made me cry, thank you so much for the support!
I’m sorry to make you cry! The post of your gown was wonderful but I thought people needed a little more context. ❤️
My daughter is 5 and just started STEM club at school. Thanks for being a great role model!
She sounds incredible and is a true role model.
She's Swedish! The last name hinted at it and I just checked, hell yes! This Swedish female physics nerd is very happy, proud of her!
I shared some classes with her during my exchange in Stockholm during my bachelor's. I already knew it back then, she's the most brilliant student I've ever met, by far. She worked hard to get her PhD. and she does so many things it's impressive ! Using her platform for so many incredible things as well. We really need more people like her in academia.
Out of curiosity, how does a PhD student (not a Professor) get invited to the Nobel prize banquet?
They don't tell you why you get invited, but my guess is because of the outreach work I've done in Sweden (I'm Swedish!) and I've also worked with the Nobel Prize foundation the last years to highlight the human side of the Nobel Prize laureates, and their discoveries. I find it important to highlight this for especially the young generation that might be curious about science.
Wait, is this you? You looking stunning and the dress is amazing!
Thank you for all that you do to get more young girls interested in science (coming from a fellow scientist)!
You are incredible!! And are absolutely killing it in that dress!
Girl, hiii, hello! ❤️Thank you for all your amazing work, you kick ass! This species and this planet needs more people like you. 🌸
Thank you for your outreach and advocacy work. Here in the US, we're being led down a dark path of science denialism. So encouraging to see intelligent people empowering others!
You are amazing, so excited to see where your research goes and inspired by your outreach work!
Massive social media presence and visible advocacy work.
I love that she's using her platform to highlight that you can be brilliant AND glamorous. That summary alone is goals.
She just posted your comment on her IG story!
I don’t have Instagram, do you have a link?

aw she posted this comment on her instagram story!
Now I’m going to have to figure out how to Instagram
I have a new hero! Thanks for sharing
Thanks for sharing this info! She sounds so cool.
A queen. Iconic. Legend. No notes
That is one smart and talented family
and a loving family on top of that
Her dress is a Penrose diagram! In General Relativity, these are used to map causality around black holes and theoretical constructs like wormholes and white holes.
Thank you for explaining that. To someone out of the field, it was hard to decipher.
Honestly, even as someone in the field (I took two semesters of GR in grad school) I find Penrose diagrams hard to decipher lol
As a sneeze guard scraper - what the hell’s a decipher?
As an angiotensic noise dewarbler, what the hell's a sneeze guard scraper?
I love astrophysics, black holes, weird stars, all that stuff. I would have kept studying it in college if calculus and I made better friends. I consider myself pretty space informed for a non-scientist. But somehow I've never been able to wrap my head around Penrose diagrams. They sure look neat though. And the dress is awesome.
There is also a Feynman diagram on it! So great!
Kinda me in my garage rn
Absolutely beautiful dress on a beautiful woman. I wish the Nobel Prize committee didn't shit the bed with the Peace Prize because the other winners seem wonderful.
Different committees and different ceremonies, three Swedish ones pick the proper Nobel prizes which are presented in Stockholm. The Norwegian committee picks and presents the peace prize separately.
The peace prize had been fucked up so much that it’s been replaced by a Swedish prize.
rightlivelihood.org
The winners of which are actually working towards peace in the world.
The Swedish peace prize had been fucked up so much that it's been replaced by a FIFA one.
The winner of which is actually working towards peace in the world.
Now that is some great shit posting
To be clear she didn't win the prize, she's a PhD student.
Hello everyone! Eleonora here (the one wearing the dress, my sister Aurora is the incredible one who actually MADE the dress!). I'm so happy people are appreciating her work!
I see a lot of people asking about my research. I'm doing mathematical physics (but just as a second-year PhD student!). My main work focuses on number theory and its applications to black holes. It's a very niche field and I'm currently writing my first paper (should hopefully be out within 1-2 months). I've done previous work on astrofluiddynamics, but I'm mainly a mathematician now.
I'm working as much as I can to make STEM accessible, and dismantling stereotypes about these amazing fields. Me and my sister wanted to show the connection between art and mathematics (in fact, we made a series on our Instagrams eleonorasvanberg and aurei.crochet where we go through the mathematics behind this dress). And of course, sustainability as well. It felt like a good opportunity to make a statement about the things we believe in.
With that being said, if you have any questions please reach out on instagram, happy to talk more! I don't hang out on Reddit too much but our mother's colleuge sent a screenshot of this post and I had to comment!

Oh wow I already follow her! Her work is great, what a talented family 😭
Thank you!
Imagine being that smart AND that beautiful. I love the dress, she looks amazing!
Seriously so stunning and smart!! Go Eleonara!!
Semi related, but Big Bang Theory did so much harm to the public image of physicists. Some of us are, indeed, gorgeous
Also all physicists aren't insufferable like TBBT characters.
A contradiction!
This is the coolest
Thank you for sharing this absolutely love this
Oh wow, my daughter is also named Eleonora, and she loves space! I can't wait to show her this in the morning!!
🥺
Aww! It's my mum's name and I'm so sad it's becoming rare, thank you for naming your daughter this way!
My cousin named her daughter the French version, Éléonore! It's a very lovely name IMO!
All pics really lovely. Really dig #5, I see you moon.
Younger Catherine Zeta-Jones vibes. Chef's kiss.
Ok, I have never been more serious: I need this in my life 😭
And normally I would be like "when a gown is that gorgeous, just wear it around the house!'
But I don't just want the gown, babe!
I want the skirt, the top, the high-waisted bell-bottoms, the swimsuit, the bikini, and every other amalgamation.
This will be my capsule wardrobe for next year.

You did it! Your post is officially the #1 post on Reddit. It is now forever immortalized at /r/topofreddit.
Damn. Imagine being smart, beautiful and cool.
This has been my favourite Reddit post in a very long time.
Both of you are off on huge adventures.
