In 2014, The International Mathematical Union decided to honor her after she discovered new advances in the theory of Riemann Surface, and in February 2017, she became the first woman to be awarded the Fields Medal, popularly known as the Nobel Prize of Math.

She discovered a formula to express the volume of moduli space as a polynomial in the number of boundary components.

Her research includes Teichmüller theory, hyperbolic geometry, ergodic theory, and symplectic geometry.
