The Isaac Newton Institute: Creating eureka moments
One of the most exciting places in the mathematical world is the Isaac Newton Institute for Mathematical Sciences (INI), an international research centre and our neighbour here on the University of Cambridge's maths campus.
The INI attracts leading mathematical scientists from all over the world, and is open to all. We are proud to be collaborating with the INI to bring the cutting edge mathematics that is being done there to the general public. The following content is part of this collaboration.
Mathematics and justiceThis collection of articles looks at mathematics relevant to law and justice.
AI be the judge: The use of algorithms in the criminal justice system
Could AI help judges deliver fair and transparent sentences? A recent study group involving law experts and mathematicians explored the challenges involved.

Building a theory of quantum gravity
This collection of articles looks at one of the biggest problems in modern physics and at research that aims to solve it.
Maths in a minute: AlgorithmsThe word "algorithm" has probably got more usage over the last few years than it has in its entire history. But what exactly is an algorithm?
