Maria Bruna has won a Whitehead Prize for her "outstanding research in asymptotic homogenisation". We explore what this research entails, and find out how it has helped the company Dyson build better vacuum cleaners.
Holly Krieger has won a Whitehead Prize for her "deep contributions to arithmetic dynamics". In this article we explore what her work is about and how it is linked to the famous Mandelbrot set.
Henry Wilton has won a Whitehead Prize for "his remarkable contributions to geometric and combinatorial group theory". In this article we venture to the interface of geomety and algebra to find out what this means.
A collaboration between mathematicians at the Department of Applied Mathematics and Theoretical Physics (DAMTP) and clinicians and researchers from around the world is developing an AI tool to help with diagnosing COVID-19 and making prognoses for infected patients.
As the world gradually emerges from lockdown, fluid dynamicists at the Department of Applied Mathematics and Theoretical Physics (DAMTP) are investigating how to keep safe as we move about our daily lives.
The Soft Matter Research Group at the Department of Applied Mathematics and Theoretical Physics (DAMTP) has put aside its usual work to fight COVID-19 and help the UK find a way out of the lockdown.
