Becoming more involved with science and maths communities

[arevolutionist]

I shall not go through my entire history. When I was young, I began studying computer science. Today I am an expert in computer science. Because of my studies in computer science I have been involved with many computer science communities. Though, now I wish to completely change everything I do, become a newbie once again. and switch to Physics/Mathematics. What I am asking is for resources to become involved with Physics and Mathematics communities. Thank you!

You shouldn't change everything you do. If you are an expert in computer science, you should probably see how you can use computers to do physics or something like that.

I understand the desire to constantly learn and expand one's knowledge in different fields of science. It is commendable that you have already established yourself as an expert in computer science and are now seeking to branch out into physics and mathematics.

One of the best ways to become involved with physics and mathematics communities is to attend conferences and workshops related to these fields. These events provide opportunities to network with other scientists, learn about cutting-edge research, and engage in discussions about current topics in the field. You can also consider joining professional organizations such as the American Physical Society or the Mathematical Association of America, which offer resources for networking, career development, and staying updated on the latest advancements in these fields.

Additionally, online communities and forums can be a great resource for connecting with other scientists and discussing ideas and research. Websites such as ResearchGate and Academia.edu allow you to create a profile, share your work, and connect with other scientists in your field. Social media platforms like Twitter and LinkedIn can also be useful for networking and staying updated on the latest news and events in physics and mathematics.

You may also want to consider reaching out to professors and researchers in your local universities or colleges. Many of them are involved in research projects and may be open to collaborations or mentorship opportunities. Attending seminars and talks at these institutions can also expose you to new ideas and research areas.

In conclusion, becoming involved with physics and mathematics communities requires actively seeking out opportunities to network, learn, and collaborate. By attending conferences, joining professional organizations, utilizing online resources, and connecting with local researchers, you can successfully transition into these fields and continue to expand your knowledge and expertise.
