Departmental homepageProfessor David Stuart grew up in London and studied Physics as an undergraduate at New College Oxford. After graduating, he studied Applied Mathematics at Princeton University, completing his PhD research under Andrew Majda. Subsequently he worked for nine years in California, at Berkeley and Davis, before moving to Cambridge in 1999 and joining St John's College.
Professor Stuart lectures in various topics in Applied Mathematics and Theoretical Physics in the Mathematics Faculty, and supervises applied mathematics and analysis.
His research interests are in applications of analysis to Mathematical Physics, in particular the dynamics of solitons in classical and quantum field theory.
