Researchers from DAMTP are helping to develop one of the largest-scale applications yet of machine learning in medicine and healthcare. Discover more about the BloodCounts! project.
Professor Ivan Smith elected Fellow of the Royal Society
Ivan Smith, Professor of Geometry at the Department for Pure Mathematics and Mathematical Statistics (DPMMS), has been elected as a Fellow of the Royal Society.
Daniel Kreuter is a PhD student in the Department of Applied Mathematics and Theoretical Physics. He tells us about his work on the BloodCounts! project, which uses machine learning to make optimal use of the billions of blood tests performed every year around the globe.
New findings have been released by an international collaboration involving DAMTP researchers. They reveal the most detailed map of dark matter distributed across a quarter of the entire sky, reaching deep into the cosmos.
Emma Beniston is currently in the third year (Part II) of her undergraduate Mathematics degree at the University of Cambridge. She discusses what she loves about maths, experiencing research life through a summer internship, and what she is planning for the future.
Giant underwater waves affect the ocean’s ability to store carbon
New research has shed light on the important role underwater waves deep below the ocean’s surface – some up to 500 metres tall – play in how the ocean stores heat and carbon.
Daniel Kaddaj is a third year undergraduate studying Part II Mathematics. He tells us about what drew him to maths, random walks on unusual shapes, and the summer internship which allowed him to experience life as a maths researcher.
Researchers from the Faculty's multidisciplinary Cambridge Mathematics of Information in Healthcare Hub (CMIH) are developing an automated machine learning method to help with the diagnosis of Alzheimer's disease.
While the COVID-19 pandemic separated us physically, it also caused parts of our communities to pull together to meet the challenge. One group of people who have done this particularly well are mathematicians — with members of the Mathematics Faculty playing a leading role.
