Maths in Motion - from Experiments to Proofs
How can you construct a self-supporting bridge? Does the height of the British population follow a specific pattern? Can you cross all bridges in a given city without backtracking? Come along and chat with University of Edinburgh staff and students to find out how Mathematics can help answer all these diverse questions.
Attendance is free and no booking is required. You can just drop in and stay as little or as long as you wish.
Location: University of Edinburgh, James Clerk Maxwell Building (Level 3) at King's Buildings Campus, Peter Guthrie Tait Road, Edinburgh EH9 3FD
