Mathematics is everywhere

• Mathematics help plan and manage economic and social systems enabling the move towards a sustainable use of resources.
• We travel the world guided by precise mathematical calculations based on the position of the sun, stars and GPS satellites.
• We explore the inside of the human body through CT scans and MRI by building images out of numerical data through mathematical algorithms.
• We discover how human thought works by building AI software that can learn and make decisions through mathematic models.
• We photographed a black hole and continue exploring the edges of the universe with mathematics.
