MATHEMATICS 2012
22 March 2012
Mary Ward House, 5-7 Tavistock Place, London, WC1H 9SN

Mathematics 2012 is the seventh in the series of annual IMA conferences to promote mathematics. This series aims to demonstrate to both mathematicians and non mathematicians the many uses of modern mathematics. The work of the speakers this year includes the food industry, defence, finance and government.  Also included are current topics in mathematics such as the promotion of mathematics to a wider audience and the interface between school and university mathematics.

We hope that the audience will have mathematicians, those who work with mathematicians in policy forming roles, and anyone who has an interest in developments in the applications of mathematics.
