We've got a cleaner look and exciting new features!

The harmonic series look simple. But, perhaps breaking your intuition, grows without bound!

The surprising physics of stacking coins.

Find out about a pioneering new project which builds mathematical models together with the people who are affected by them.

Wand to expand your horizon? Then discover one of the hardest problems in algebraic topology which has only recently been solved: the Kervaire invariant problem.

We continue our journey towards a proof of the Kervaire invariant problem.

Find out how random shapes shed light on one of the hardest problems in physics.

We explore a famous problem which shaped 20th century topology. 

How can statistics help us to make informed decisions. Find out with this brief explanation of hypothesis testing?

A story from geometry shows how developments in mathematics have fundamentally changed the way we think about the world around us.

To celebrate today we revisit interviews with four women mathematicians who are not only brilliant at doing the maths, but also at communicating it to wider audiences.
