St Catherine's College, Oxford has a long tradition in applied and industrial mathematics, and has hosted
a series of lectures on Mathematics and its Applications since 1986. In 1995, the series was renamed in
memory of Alan Tayler, in tribute to his efforts and achievements in this field.
Alan was the first Fellow in applied mathematics to be appointed at St Catherine's. His lifelong commitment was to the practical application of mathematical ideas to problems in science and industry. His vision inspired many national and international collaborations on the theme of mathematics-in-industry. We are therefore delighted to have had the opportunity of taking on the sponsorship of the lecture. These pages are a record of the lectures to date.
The 2009 Alan Tayler Lecture will be delivered by Prof Lord Desai of the London School of Economics and Political Science on 30 November 2009 at 5.00pm in the Martin Wood Lecture Theatre, Department of Physics, University of Oxford.
