Story

The fellowship was conceived to support research in any area drawing on mathematics and information theory, including, but not limited to, applications in sustainability, policy or technology that follow on from David’s work.  The real work is only beginning as, unlike the existing endowed fellowships, we only have funding for the initial appointment. The work to raise the very substantial sums required to put this onto a permanently endowed basis is underway. The College acknowledges with boundless gratitude the generosity of all those who have given to date, and we can all draw inspiration from the memory of David which the new research fellow will evoke as he embarks upon his research.   

 Please note, we would love to send you a personal 'thank you' for your donation. However, if you give anonymously please be aware that we will be unable to.
