Max Springer grew up reading @sciam, but he never expected to write for the prestigious publication. Read how this recent @math_umd grad cast a media spotlight on math, including writing about the mathematics of @LoveIsland and promoting #PiDay on TV: https://t.co/BCdv8QE2MY

A team led by Mohammad Hajiaghayi (@MTHajiaghayi) has solved the Steiner Forest problem—a 35-year-old mathematical quandary. The resulting 126-page proof and algorithm could boost chip design for computing and AI, cutting energy use and costs. Read more: https://t.co/SKgNqmPJoN

After his @math_umd Ph.D., Max Springer is heading to @PrincetonCS to continue his #GameTheory research as a postdoc! While at #UMD, he interned at @nokiabell, Google Research and @NIH and was selected as an @aaas Mass Media Fellow and @NSF Graduate Research Fellow. #UMDGrad

Part of my current group of 20 exceptional PhD students, many already with medals in IOI, IMO, and ICPC from different parts of the world, focuses on Theory, likely the largest theory groups in the world. I am proud of all my current students and 17 already PhD graduated ones.

In my latest for @sciam, I finally get to talk about my guilty pleasure: reality TV. ...uh, I mean combinatorial algorithms.
An elegant matchmaking algorithm called Gale-Shapley can find the best possible pairings for everybody

NASA is gearing up to send astronauts back to the moon for the first time in over 50 years as part of its Artemis program. Despite delays and budget challenges, the first crewed mission is set to launch in fall 2025. But why has it taken so long, and why has it been so

In a mere *three page* proof, mathematicians construct a small n-dimensional shape that rolls like a wheel. My latest for @sciam explores the wonky world of Euclidean geometry and how new shapes are built from old ones. https://t.co/IaBZ7MAn4o

In my never-ending quest to save cinema, my latest article explores how far the science of tornadoes has come since 'Twister'—just in time for the release of 'Twisters'. (Notice me @glenpowell) https://t.co/K9BjrRnFse

Check out my chat with @MesonetMan on tornado science and showing the cast of @Twistersmovie what real storm chasing is like!
Sean Waugh, a professional storm chaser and meteorologist, talks about his role in advising Hollywood for Twisters and the awe-inspiring experience of chasing tornadoes
