Biography

Dr Tim Davis was appointed as a Lecturer in Mathematics in August 2024. He was the Mathematics Tutor at Northeastern University London the previous academic year.

Before joining Northeastern University London, he completed his PhD in Mathematics at Queen Mary, University of London. His undergraduate degree in mathematics was completed in 2019 at the University of Reading.

Tim also worked as the Mathematics Advisor for the Apple TV+ show Prime Target.

Research

Tim’s research is in the area of number theory. Specifically, he is interested in the arithmetic and algebraic properties of the Fourier coefficients of automorphic forms. He studies these objects from both a classical and adelic viewpoint.

Tim is also researching Mathematical Education with a specific focus on Higher Education and how non-mathematics students learn mathematics.
