The Academy for the Mathematical Sciences (AcadMathSci), founded in September 2023, brings together academia, education, business, industry, and government from across the UK to provide an authoritative, persuasive, and influential voice for the whole of the mathematical sciences. The Academy’s new Fellowship will bring together the UK’s ‘hidden problem solvers’, whose breadth of experience and depth of expertise will make the Fellowship much greater than the sum of its parts.
Working across focussed committees, the Fellows will contribute to projects of national importance -such as strengthening maths education in the UK, supporting responsible AI, addressing the UK’s leaky mathematical talent pipeline, and leveraging the mathematical sciences to tackle climate change - for the benefit of the whole UK.
Among the appointed fellows is Professor Christl Donnelly, Professor of Applied Statistics and an investigator in Oxford’s Pandemic Sciences Institute. She is also a former Head of the Department of Statistics at Oxford.
Congratulations to all the new fellows!
