"In Defence of Algebra" by Neukom Director Dan Rockmore - The New York Review
"The mathematician Paul Lockhart believes to his core that math is the purest of the arts, and anyone can learn to love it."
The Neukom Institute for Computational Science and the Susan and James Wright Center for the Study of Computation and Just Communities mourn the loss of William H. ("Bill") Neukom '64

"The mathematician Paul Lockhart believes to his core that math is the purest of the arts, and anyone can learn to love it."
"Deutsch's play shines a bright light on the complicated dissonances that exist between digital and material lives, and the complexities inherent in trying to live simultaneously in both of them," Rockmore says. "Anyone alive today will relate to the intensity and peculiarity of life caught between the concrete and the contrived."

Data-driven algorithms and technology designers are the new policymakers. No one elected them, and most people do not know their names, but the decisions they make dictate the code by which we conduct our daily lives and govern our country.
Neukom Scholar Elisaveta (Lisa) Samoylov '26 at Dartmouth, paper "Modeling Tactics as Operators: Effect-Grounded Representations for Lean Theorem Proving" (with co-author Soroush Vosoughi) has been accepted to the 3rd workshop on Mathematical Natural Language Processing (MathNLP 2025) at EMNLP in Suzhou, China! Additionally it was nominated for an oral presentation.
Neukom Fellows Laura Chapot '21 and Tess McNulty '22 at Dartmouth - How does computation reshape the idea of "form" in culture, art, and media?
Neukom Fellows are interdisciplinary positions for recent PhDs whose research interests or practice cut across traditional disciplinary boundaries, with a computational component—whether as a framing concept for intellectual exploration or an explicit part of the work itself. This is a unique opportunity for early-career scholars whose work bridges fields and pushes the boundaries of computational thinking.
Neukom Fellow '25 Erik Tamre says "Studying the evolutionary history recorded in microbial genomes is often the only way to do it: this paper makes use of that approach for a rare documentation of change in the microbial world."
"At the frontiers of knowledge, researchers are discovering that A.I. doesn't just take prompts—it gives them, too, sparking new forms of creativity and collaboration" by Dan Rockmore, Neukom Director.
