Telephone Number+44 (0)1224 272751Office AddressFraser Noble Building, Room 159School/DepartmentSchool of Natural and Computing Sciences Personal Website Research Research Overview My research is in algebraic topology, where we study spaces by `measuring' them using algebra. Currently I am interested in homological stability and magnitude homology. In the past I have worked on string topology, orbifolds and stacks. Collaborations My collaborators include David Ayala, Rachael Boyd, Anssi Lahtinen and Simon Willerton. Teaching
