Professor James Naismith, Head of the Mathematical, Physical and Life Sciences Division (MPLS) in Oxford, of which the Mathematical Institute is part, will be joining our coffee morning in the AWB Common Room on Tuesday 20 February from 11am. 

Jim is keen to hear from you - about your research, what you do, your ideas or anything else on your mind.

So even if you are not a coffee morning regular, why not come along?
