| The power of mathematical thinking |
| Mathematics is everywhere. We use it to regulate online payments, find the shortest walking route through a city, predict the weather, optimise train schedules, plan availability of ambulances, develop safe medicine and trace down criminals. Mathematics is also important for innovation in business and industry. In this symposium scientists from different disciplines will share their view on the importance of mathematics in society. Date & time: Monday 18 February 2019, 7.00 – 9.00 p.m. Venue: Amsterdam Public Library, Theaterzaal, Oosterdokskade 143, 1011 DL Amsterdam More information:Website KNAW |
