Featured SIAM Video |
Watch SIAM's 'Math in Our Lives' Video Series
Have you ever tried to explain to your non-specialist friends and colleagues why applied math matters? How it impacts their everyday life? How it is shaping the future of technology? SIAM has worked with our journal Editors-in-Chief and professional science writers to create the ‘Math in our Lives’ video collection - a series of 90-second animations that showcase different fields and their associated SIAM journal. As valued members and ambassadors of SIAM, please watch these short animations and share them with your interested networks. Help us show that math matters and why!
Don't forget to subscribe to SIAM's YouTube channel so you see more of our content, more easily.
