New preprint!
We introduce a new benchmark, SciConBench, with 9.11k scientific questions derived from Cochrane Systematic Reviews.
We find evidence that frontier AI agents **cannot** synthesize scientific conclusions well.

Max Springer grew up reading @sciam, but he never expected to write for the prestigious publication.
Read how this recent @math_umd grad cast a media spotlight on math, including writing about the mathematics of @LoveIsland and promoting #PiDay on TV: go.umd.edu/springer

A team led by Mohammad Hajiaghayi (@MTHajiaghayi) has solved the Steiner Forest problem—a 35-year-old mathematical quandary. The resulting 126-page proof and algorithm could boost chip design for computing and AI, cutting energy use and costs. Read more: go.umd.edu/1zd2

Part of my current group of 20 exceptional PhD students, many already with medals in IOI, IMO, and ICPC from different parts of the world, focuses on Theory, likely the largest theory groups in the world. I am proud of all my current students and 17 already PhD graduated ones.
