IMA MATHEMATICS 2010

22 April 2010

Saddlers' Hall, Gutter Lane, London

 

The IMA is holding a major one day conference on mathematics and its applications for the

present day on 22 April 2010 at Saddlers' Hall, Gutter Lane, London.  The aim of the conference

is to bring together people with an interest in mathematics and its applications to consider current 

issues in the subject. The conference topics will cover research topics in mathematics; public

understanding of mathematics and industrial applications of mathematics. These topics will be

of interest to both mathematicians and those working with mathematicians as the presentations

will address the impact of the work rather than emphasise its technical nature. The conference

will give an opportunity for informal discussion between people who are interested in a variety

of areas in mathematics.  The programme is shown below.

 

This conference is the next in the series following successful conferences held in Manchester

in 2005 and London in 2007, 2008 and 2009.
