How did we end up here? Let’s take a look at our namesake, Augustus De Morgan, one of the most influential mathematicians of the 19th century:
🧠 He was the first Professor of Mathematics at the University of London.
📐 He developed De Morgan’s Laws, a fundamental principle in logic and computer science.
📅 In 1865, he became the first president of the London Mathematical Society!
Fast forward to 1998 🍥 The LMS moved to its new home here at De Morgan House, renaming the building in honour of its first president. When you book your meeting, conference or event with us, you’re actively supporting mathematics through the work of the LMS.
