The Newton Gateway to Mathematics: Spreading mathematical knowledge
The Newton Gateway to Mathematics is celebrating its 10th anniversary this year!
Based in Cambridge, the Newton Gateway provides bridges between mathematicians working on the frontiers of their field and people who use mathematics – in industry, business, the public sector and other scientific disciplines. The Newton Gateway develops and runs activities such as workshops and meetings, bringing people and organisations together in order to share knowledge and stimulate further research and collaboration. It is the impact initiative of the Isaac Newton Institute for Mathematical Sciences.
We are proud to be collaborating with the Newton Gateway to report on its fascinating activities for wider audiences. Below are all the articles and podcasts we have published as part of this collaboration so far.
Happy birthday, Newton Gateway!
The mathematical forces that fought COVID-19 
The COVID-19 emergency resulted in some amazing mathematical collaborations.
The inequalities of COVID-19 
The COVID-19 pandemic has amplified the differences between us. Understanding these inequalities is crucial for this and future pandemics.
Supporting healthcare with AI 
Mathematicians are developing new machine learning techniques to support medical doctors in their work.
Can maths help improve the communities of the future? 
Now it's the turn of mathematicians to help to improve the communities of the future.
Reducing NHS waiting lists in the wake of COVID 
Mathematicians help with clearing the massive NHS backlog for heart conditions.
Can game theory help to vaccinate the world? 
Game theory suggests that sharing vaccine doses might give a selfish, as well as moral, advantage.
Happy International Women's day 2022! 
We celebrate by revisiting some of the articles and podcasts we have produced with female mathematicians over the last year.
Hiding in plane sight 
Flying a plane on a secret mission? Some basic geometry can help you avoid being captured by an adversary.
