This Mathematics Matters case study, from the Institute of Mathematics and its Applications, looks at how biometric identification systems rely on mathematical methods to convert images into data that can be digitally stored. It is essential that the biometric systems we depend on for national security can reliably...
This Mathematics Matters case study, from the Institute of Mathematics and its Applications, discusses the importance of statistics and computing to developments in medical research. Sequencing the human genome was a fantastic achievement, but it was only the beginning. Now, statisticians are coming up with new...
We know that sometimes it can be difficult to visualise what STEM Ambassadors actually do.
Even after speaking to colleagues who are old hands at delivering activities, questions can still remain. Why do I need to meet the teacher first? What if the students are bored? How do I make it relevant? Where do I...
Hiba Khan keeps people's homes safe from flooding and erosion. She works for Mott MacDonald, keeping people safe and healthy by...
Stephanie Kwolek invented the tough polymer Kevlar, used in protective clothing and developed a method for demonstrating the production of nylon in the classroom which is still used today.
The article is from Catalyst: Secondary Science Review 2014, Volume 25, Issue 1.

Steve looks at new technologies that advance the space industry. He works at the Space Applications Catapult, in Harwell. He gives the example of how image processing techniques used in the satellite industry can be used in the medical imaging. Imaging data has also been used to prevent illegal logging and to...
This video features Chris Clemente, from Cambridge University, who is studying the mechanisms that ants and other insects (especially cockroaches) use to walk down as well as up walls. Ants have incredibly sticky feet.
With them they can hang onto ceilings, whilst carrying 100 times their body weight. But if...
A useful handbook for setting up a student-led STEM club, with exemplars from three schools.
It is increasingly recognised that giving students opportunities to act as ambassadors and mentors for STEM subjects outside of school can be of great benefit to the individual, their institution, and to the broader...
To celebrate the 2024 Summer Olympic and Paralympic Games we have created this collection of resources covering a variety of sporting activities and technology in sport topics. There is a collection for primary level and another with activities suitable for secondary students.
Explore the world of sustainability through the knowledge and expertise of those seeking to effect change and make a difference. Through a series of videos, webinars, articles, ideas and practical activities young people aged 11 to 18 and their educators can expand their knowledge, question the world around them...
Suzie researches how the sun influences the planets in the solar system. She also teaches physics to undergraduates and is involved in a lot of outreach. Suzie is currently working on the BepiColombo mission to Mercury.
There are two cuts of the video – one aimed at primary aged children, and one for...
