advocate for math accessibility and producing the primary solution for speaking, navigating, and brailling mathematics and chemical formulas. Like so many others working in accessibility, it has not always been a straight path, with both pushback and encouragement from companies and the government. He will recount some meetings with some remarkable figures in the field and help people understand the challenges around accessible mathematics.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Neil Soiffer was a principal architect of MathML, the standard for putting math on the web. He is the main developer of MathCAT, which is used with NVDA, JAWS, EasyReader and other assistive technologies to make math accessible in Web, Word, and PowerPoint documents.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"288\" height=\"360\" src=\"https:\/\/www.nb.no\/content\/uploads\/sites\/28\/2026\/03\/neil-soiffer.jpg\" alt=\"Neil Soiffer, portrait\" class=\"wp-image-1675\" style=\"aspect-ratio:1;object-fit:cover;width:230px\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.nb.no\/content\/uploads\/sites\/28\/2026\/03\/neil-soiffer.jpg 288w, https:\/\/www.nb.no\/content\/uploads\/sites\/28\/2026\/03\/neil-soiffer-240x300.jpg 240w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 288px) 100vw, 288px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Neil Soiffer<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"t2-accordion-item wp-block-t2-accordion-item\" role=\"listitem\">\n\t\t\t<h2 class=\"t2-accordion-title\">\n\t\t\t\t<button type=\"button\" class=\"t2-accordion-trigger\" id=\"id-12:00\u201313:00-parallel-1-reading-and-authoring-mathematics\" aria-controls=\"accordion-panel-5\" aria-expanded=\"false\">\n\t\t\t\t\t12:00\u201313:00 Parallel 1 Reading and Authoring Mathematics\n\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"t2-accordion-icon is-closed-icon\"><svg xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" viewBox=\"0 0 24 24\" height=\"24\" width=\"24\" class=\"t2-icon t2-icon-add\" aria-hidden=\"true\" focusable=\"false\"><path fill=\"currentColor\" d=\"M11.7 4.817a.761.761 0 0 0-.384.399c-.07.156-.074.328-.075 3.353l-.001 3.19-3.253.01-3.253.011-.148.1c-.168.114-.346.433-.345.618.002.263.243.605.492.699.076.029 1.148.043 3.31.043h3.197l.001 3.19c.001 3.02.005 3.199.075 3.35.286.619 1.082.619 1.368 0 .07-.151.074-.33.075-3.35l.001-3.19h3.197c2.162 0 3.234-.014 3.31-.043.249-.093.491-.438.491-.697 0-.259-.242-.604-.491-.697-.076-.029-1.148-.043-3.31-.043H12.76l-.001-3.19c-.001-3.02-.005-3.199-.075-3.35-.086-.186-.257-.357-.417-.417a.894.894 0 0 0-.567.014\"\/><\/svg><\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"t2-accordion-icon is-open-icon\"><svg xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" viewBox=\"0 0 24 24\" height=\"24\" width=\"24\" class=\"t2-icon t2-icon-remove\" aria-hidden=\"true\" focusable=\"false\"><path d=\"M6 13c-.285156 0-.519531-.097656-.710938-.289062C5.097656 12.519531 5 12.285156 5 12c0-.285156.097656-.519531.289062-.710938C5.480469 11.097656 5.714844 11 6 11h12c.285156 0 .519531.097656.710938.289062C18.902344 11.480469 19 11.714844 19 12c0 .285156-.097656.519531-.289062.710938C18.519531 12.902344 18.285156 13 18 13Zm0 0\" fill=\"currentColor\" \/><\/svg><\/span>\n\t\t\t\t<\/button>\n\t\t\t<\/h2>\n\t\t\t<div class=\"t2-accordion-item__inner-container is-layout-flow\" id=\"accordion-panel-5\" aria-labelledby=\"id-12:00\u201313:00-parallel-1-reading-and-authoring-mathematics\" role=\"region\" hidden>\n\t\t\t\t\n\n<p>Location:  <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>12:00\u201312:30 Reading Mathematics in EasyReader<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Mattias Karlsson<\/strong>, AltFormat Product Manager, Dolphin Computer Access AB (Sweden)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The presentation explores how Dolphin EasyReader supports accessible reading of mathematical content.
