Despite all the challenges it faced, the international mathematics community has come together to create an ICM in 2022 like no other.

The COVID-19 emergency resulted in some amazing mathematical collaborations.

Here's a simple game at which a human can out-fox even the cleverest algorithm.

The INI is celebrating its 30th birthday. What is it and what is it do for maths and mathematicians?

Mark Braverman has won the Abacus Medal for a mathematical approach to solving problems while sharing as little information as possible.

Fields Medallist Duminil-Copin's work in statistical physics brings together his two loves – maths and physics.

Maynard went from a fascination with numbers as a young child to making spectacular contributions to number theory that have earned him a Fields Medal.

Huh may have had relatively late start in mathematics but his work with maths you can feel and touch has won him a Fields medal.

Viazovska is only the second woman to receive a Fields Medal, for her ground-breaking proof to a problem we're all familiar with.

Hugo Duminil-Copin has been awarded a Fields Medal for solving longstanding problems in statistical physics. He told us about how his work brings together his two loves – maths and physics.

Mark Braverman has won the Abacus Medal for developing the theory of information complexity. He told us about the role of communication in computation, and why a mathematical view can help you understand how to solve problems while sharing as little information as possible.

Maryna Viazovska has won one of this year's Fields Medals for a ground-breaking result in the theory of sphere packings.
