IMA Mathematics 2021 Online Series
25 May 2021, Online Event via Zoom

For a number of years, the IMA has been running a series of
conferences to promote mathematics with the aim of demonstrating to
both mathematicians and non-mathematicians the many uses of modern
mathematics. Following last summer's very successful IMA Mathematics
2020 series collaboration with the Newton Gateway to Mathematics, we
are pleased to announce two events for 2021 taking place on 6 and 25
May. On Tuesday 25 May, we will have two talks which feature the work
of V-KEMS (Virtual Forum for Knowledge Exchange in Mathematical
Sciences). Presentations will feature the work of two very successful
virtual study groups, which ran earlier this year, on Reducing the
Risk of Covid-19 Transmission on Trains and Modelling Solutions to the
Impact of COVID-19 on Cardiovascular Waiting Lists. (See the event
page for further details).

Programme - 25 May (Full Abstracts can be found at our website)
