People born without sight appear to solve math problems using visual areas of the brain. "And as the equations get harder and harder, activity in these areas goes up in a blind person," says Marina ...

From fireworks to woodburning to modeling fire behavior, Jenna Sjunneson McDanold’s love of fire has fueled her growth as an artist and a mathematician. As part of her studies as mathematical modeling ...

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 ...

Humans are born to do math, and they have the brain infrastructure to prove it—including a cluster of specialized nerve cells for processing numbers. Despite this dedicated cluster, mathematical ...

People born without sight apparently process math in their visual cortex. The findings come from a newly published Johns Hopkins study, and add support to the idea that when it comes to "nature versus ...
