Using mathematical theory, UC Irvine scientists have shed light on one of cancer’s most troubling puzzles -- how cancer cells can alter their own genetic makeup to accelerate tumor growth. The ...

Scientists mapping the human body at the cellular level keep running into the same surprise: beneath the apparent chaos of tissues and organs, there is a hidden order that looks a lot like pure ...

A University of Hawaiʻi at Mānoa Department of Mathematics faculty member has received a $211,262 grant from the National Science Foundation to study a specialized area of mathematics with ...

That is where a strong mathematical foundation becomes critical. Those who understand numbers and mathematical relationships ...

Scientists from the University of Sheffield have used mathematical modelling to understand why flocks of long-tailed tits segregate themselves into different parts of the landscape. The team tracked ...

This photograph does a pretty good job of "describing" ripples. But a mathematician could do it with greater precision and predictive power. Image credit: andressolo, Flickr, CC BY 2.0 "How is it ...
