About
At the time of its founding, the institute was the eighth of its kind in the nation and the first in New England.[2] It is located in downtown Providence, Rhode Island in a building it shares with the Brown University School of Public Health.[3]
The Institute for Computational and Experimental Research in Mathematics (ICERM), hold numerous events and workshops throughout the year. Workshops range from one day events all the way up to week-long conferences and conventions.[4] A notable ICERM workshop was, "Illustrating Mathematics" (2016), which brought mathematicians and digital artist together.[5]
