"O sleep, O gentle sleep,

Nature's soft nurse, how have I frightened thee,

That thou no more will weigh my eyelids down, 

And steep my senses in forgetfulness?"

Mathematics perhaps?

Edge Challenges is a new initiative for Oxford DPhil and Master’s students, delivered in collaboration with Oxford Science Enterprises and the Skoll Centre for Social Entrepreneurship.

From 25 February to 15 April, you’ll join a small, interdisciplinary team to work once a week on a real-world challenge shaped by external stakeholders. You’ll develop a research-informed response with impact beyond the University – whether that’s at the frontier of scientific entrepreneurship or social innovation.
