@LongFormMath By early 1928 the situation became unbearable for the Hensels, and I started a desperate search for another apartment. Just at the right time, in March, I received a professorship in Kiel." (4/4)

@LongFormMath Aviezri Sigmund (named after my father) in May 1928—all in the Hensel house! Instead of a quiet married couple, a family with four noisy children was squeezed into the tight quarters. (3/?)

@LongFormMath Fraenkel offered his personal funds as loans to strangers to enable them to enter the country. Since the loans were given on a basis of trust, no records were kept." (3/3)

@LongFormMath Less well documented are his efforts to bring others to Israel. At that time, a sum of a 1000 British pounds was required as a guarantee in order to get a certificate for entry into Mandatory Palestine. (2/3)

@LongFormMath "One such story describes him going on the bus to the university on Mount Scopus, when a student sitting next to him asked, ‘would you please shut the window, it is cold outside’, to which Fraenkel responded, ‘and suppose I close the window, will it be warm outside’?"

[Ariella Mansfield @AriellaMans]

@LongFormMath Some of my favorite anecdotes from the book:
Fraenkel invited Von Neumann to him to visit him at home.
"His appearance made a huge impression not only on me, but also on my wife: the slim, not yet 20-year-old young man looked exactly as one would imagine a young genius.

If you’re a PhD student worried about your fertility, but also afraid of the professional consequences of starting a family while in school, I see you. No one seems to talk about this, but I think we should. Please rt to start a dialogue. 1/

[MAR Designs @MARorthotics]

Working on MAR Orthotics has been a fantastic adventure. However, we have decided to close our venture. The space needs innovation, but we are not the best suited to deliver it. Huge thanks to all of those who have supported us through the journey.
