Papers
Exact linear regression
Exact methods supersede approximations used in high-dimensional linear regression to find correlations in statistical physics problems.

Virtual identity
At the London Institute, our papers are our products, so we take writing and presenting them seriously. Now our papers have a new look.
People
Welcome, Forrest
Postdoctoral Research Fellow Forrest Sheldon arrives at the London Institute. He studies combinatorial design and models of reprogramming.
Papers
How to count logics
The fraction of logics that are biologically permitted can be bounded and shown to be tiny, which makes inferring them from experiments easier.
Papers
The rules of life
The bipartite nature of genetic regulatory networks means their logics are composed, which severely restricts which ones can show up in life.
WEBSITE
Research themes
Our four research themes, from the nature of the universe to the future of tech, all use mathematics to understand the world and improve it.
PERSPECTIVES
Lessons from the RI
As the government creates its Advanced Research & Invention Agency, it could learn from the exceptional history of the Royal Institution.
WEBSITE
Our journals
Our new Journals page provides a guide to the journals we have published in, as well some journals that we haven’t, but would like to.
News
Move to the RI
We are delighted to announce that we have moved to the Royal Institution, where we will expand our programme of curiosity-driven research.

From zero to IRO
If the government wants a broader ecosystem of scientific research organisations, it needs to support non-university science. Here’s how.
Projects
Recursively divisible
Generalizing the divisor function to find a new kind of number that can be recursively divided into parts, for use in design and technology.
