A lot of the content we produced over the last year forms part of our collaboration with the Isaac Newton Institute for Mathematical Sciences (INI). The INI is an international research centre that attracts leading mathematical scientists from all over the world, and our neighbour here on the University of Cambridge's maths campus.

Our job is to bring the wide range of research that is being done at the INI to a general audience. In this year's advent calendar we bring you some of our favourite INI related content, produced over the last twelve months. From waves to dynamos, there's a lot to choose from, all linked to current mathematical research. Enjoy!
