Scientists mapping the human body at the cellular level keep running into the same surprise: beneath the apparent chaos of ...

Scientists have found mathematical patterns underlying the way individuals unconsciously distribute their preferences regarding approaching or avoiding objects in their environment. These patterns ...

This weekend, the Franklin Institute opens its summer exhibition about mathematical patterns that recur in nature. Its centerpiece is a 1,700-square-foot maze of mirrors, set in a grid of equilateral ...

Nature follows mathematical rules and creates repeating patterns across completely different organisms and environments.

Scientists have used mathematical modelling to understand why flocks of long-tailed tits segregate themselves into different parts of the landscape. Scientists from the University of Sheffield have ...

Many fundamental processes of life, and their synthetic counterparts in nanotechnology, are based on the autonomous assembly of individual particles into complex patterns. LMU physicist Professor ...

Mathematical patterns reveal profound truths about the universe and, surprisingly, about our inner lives as well. These five visual math concepts offer unique frameworks for understanding our behavior ...
