Biological Reviews covers the entire range of the biological sciences, presenting several review articles per issue. Although scholarly and with extensive bibliographies, the articles are aimed at non-specialist biologists as well as researchers in the field.
Mathematical Proceedings is one of the few high-quality journals publishing original research papers that cover the whole range of pure and applied mathematics, theoretical physics and statistics. All branches of pure mathematics are covered, in particular logic and foundations, number theory, algebra, geometry, algebraic and geometric topology, classical and functional analysis, differential equations, probability and statistics.
From Darwin’s paper on evolution to the development of stem cell research, publications from the Society continue to shape the scientific landscape.

By using telescopes to look deep into space, we can see back in time. I will talk about our quest to understand the history of the universe, and find out properties such as its ingredients and age. I’ll describe a conundrum facing astronomers today: our community’s two methods of measuring the rate that space is growing, and the age of the universe, don’t agree. Have we got something wrong in our understanding of the universe? I will describe our team's contribution to answering this question, using telescopes high in the Chilean desert tuned to measure millimetre-wavelength light coming from the earliest moments in time. By surveying half the sky every couple of days, we also hope to see new types of astronomical events in distant parts of the universe.
