Congratulations to the three UMD teams and their mentor, Radu Balan, for the outstanding results at the SCUDEM V 2020 challenge.
Mathematical modeling is such an important component of what science and applied mathematics is all about these days, and it is fantastic to see that Maryland is a major player in the field.
