IRS990/Desc0The Wolfram Institute, started in 2022, is dedicated to the acceleration of scientific progress through the use of computation. The Institute began research on hypergraph rewriting and the categorical study of complexity tradeoffs involved in rewrite system emulations. Dozens of "open science" public livestreams offered viewers an opportunity to observe Institute personnel conduct research in real time. The Institute also engaged with university students on computational projects of mutual interest.
