This track is focused on providing our students with the mathematical and computational skills needed to develop and maintain mathematical models. A mathematical model is a rendering of some ...

Some states of affairs are so ubiquitous in the natural world that – much like the air we breathe – we stop noticing their existence or finding them particularly strange. The effects of aging are good ...

The GSMM Camp is a weeklong workshop that builds interdisciplinary problem-solving skills for graduate and advanced undergraduate students. Participants work in teams on mathematically rich problems ...

Medicine makers need to get better at math. Improved mathematical modeling would accelerate the move toward automated processes, cut production times, and reduce costs. Researchers Francesco Destro, ...

Many math teachers around the country have adjusted their expectations for students as a result of the Common Core State Standards. But a pilot professional-development program is going above and ...

Historically, mathematical models in ecology have been used largely to provide qualitative explanations for patterns in nature. A classic example of this approach was the effort to use competition ...

Baez called for the development of new mathematics — he called it “green” math — to better capture the workings of Earth’s biosphere and climate. For his part, he sought to apply category theory, a ...
