2013 edit

Originally named after the UK computer scientist and mathematician Alan Turing, the Newton Gateway to Mathematics was seed-financed in 2003 by the University of Cambridge's Higher Education Innovation Funding.

One of the first initiatives was an UK workshop on Optimization in Space Engineering (OSE) in November 2013. The workshop was held in Birmingham, in association with the European Space Agency (ESA) and the University of Southampton. Some of the agenda items included: interplanetary trajectory optimization, non-circular spacecraft orbits, and landing trajectories.

A follow-up workshop on Optimization in Space Engineering (OSE) laid the groundwork for identifying challenges in the UK's aerospace industry. A third OSE workshop held in September of 2015 planned future workshops to further discuss problems and solutions in the field of areospace engineering.

2014, 2015, and 2017 edit

The program was presented to explore solutions for the public sector, funded by the Engineering and Physical Sciences Research Council (EPSRC). Following a launch event at the Royal Society in London, subsequent events focused on mathematics and public policy issues.

The Newton Gateway to Mathematics began publishing its quarterly newsletter in January 2015. Multimodality analysis has also been applied to Big Data involving concepts from biology to medicine at these gatherings.^[5] Novel imaging technologies have been showcased, such as multi-contrast magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), positron emission tomography (PET), and dynamic imaging. This technology targets engineers, mathematicians, biologists, and other scientists who work with big data analytics. In 2017, events that took place included the Environmental Modeling in Industry Study Group,^[6] Developments in Healthcare Imagine: Connecting with Academia, Data Sharing and Governance, and the 2nd Edwards Symposium.^{[citation needed]}

2019 edit

In January 2019, the organization changed its name to the Newton Gateway to Mathematics to avoid confusion with other organizations.^[4]

The Newton Gateway is located at 20 Clarkson Road, Cambridge, CB3 OEH, UK at the University of Cambridge. The Faulks Gatehouse is located within the University of Cambridge's Centre for Mathematical Sciences site, and was financed by the Dill Faulkes Educational Trust (DFET). The Construction of the building, which consists of a semi-circular room for seminars and three offices, was completed in June 2001. The seminar room has a capacity for 50 people. Two of the three offices are occupied by the Newton Gateway to Mathematics.^[7][8]

The Newton Gateway employs three full-time staff members; the manager is responsible for the director of the Isaac Newton Institute. The Isaac Newton Institute's Management Committee oversees the budget for both the Gateway's short-term and long-term fiscal planning, while the Gateway to Mathematics' staff handles day-to-day work. Ultimately, the Isaac Newton Institute's director is the head of the entire operation.^[9]
