+ Marie Curie and other research fellows.
Jeremy Gray
is Director of the Centre for the History of the Mathematical Sciences at the Open University and
spends one term each year at Warwick. He carries out research in the history of
mathematics in the 19th and 20th centuries, especially geometry.
Seminar activities are numerous and include a wide range from informal learning groups to more formal seminars.
Teaching at Graduate level. There is substantial teaching activity at the advanced level
