PMP Wrapped graphic stating "350 active mentorships"

"To say that Chris has a wealth of knowledge is an understatement. It also fails to underscore his indelible patience. I ask a ton of questions. I insist on doing every single problem in the books I use. I can be pedantic, and I'm not the most consistent. Despite this, he never fails to fill his messages with insight and substance. Sometimes it's over my head, but the epiphanies are never-ending." -Nathan Kimbrell, PMP participant and prospective math graduate student, on his mentor.

Our work is centered on mentorship that goes beyond math and encompasses all that drives human flourishing. These relationships restore a positive outlook, strengthen skills, and enrich the lives of everyone involved.

The theme, “Connection or Coincidence?”, has us revisiting Prof Alain Goriely's mind-bending lecture “The Deceived Brain: Coding and Illusion.”

Can maths explain why our eyes trick us? 👀

The children were encouraged to think, question, and investigate like true mathematicians as they tackled a range of challenges and puzzles. The sessions were engaging, dynamic, and energising, with every child fully committed to exploring solutions and embracing the joy of mathematical discovery.

Researchers Discover the Optimal Way To Optimize | Quanta Magazine The leading approach to the simplex method, a widely used technique for balancing complex logistical constraints, can’t get any better.

A valuable method for solving complex problems takes longer to run as problems become more complex. Researchers have now found a way to make this runtime significantly lower. www.quantamagazine.org/researchers-...
