In the late 19th and early 20th centuries, physical models were widely used by mathematics educators to depict a wide range of mathematical ideas in three dimensions. Most models were constructed in ...

Scientists have developed a mathematical model that predicts how the number and effects of bacterial mutations leading to drug resistance will influence the success of antibiotic treatments.

A new review explains how turning to mathematics is helping researchers decode one of cancer’s most elusive traits: its ability to evolve and adapt. Understanding how cancers change over time is ...

For the first time, researchers have used decades of information about sex to calculate a mathematical model for achieving sexual climax. Mathematical models are used to analyze, explain, and predict ...

This is the great mystery of human vision: Vivid pictures of the world appear before our mind’s eye, yet the brain’s visual system receives very little information from the world itself. Much of what ...
