Departmental Teaching
In the 2025-26 academic year, I am slated to give the first 9 lectures of the C6 Theoretical Physics option, covering path integrals for quantum mechanics and the basics of stochastic processes and Brownian motion (in early Michaelmas term). In Hilary Term, I will give a series of 16 lectures on "", covering some of the most striking aspects of macroscopic quantum coherence: superfluidity, superconductivity, and their underpinnings in Landau's theory of Fermi liquids.
Between 2022-25, I gave the final 20 lectures for A3 Quantum Mechanics, usually referred to as the "Further Quantum Mechanics" series.
In 2021-22, I gave a series of ~20 lectures on "Quantum Matter II: Life After Landau" in the 91探花 MMathPhys programme. This covered modern topics in quantum condensed matter physics that depart from Landau's hugely successful paradigms for understanding metallic and ordered states and phase transitions, and included material such as renormalization-group techniques, Luttinger liquid physics, and competing orders.
Between 2019-21, I was the Michaelmas Term lecturer for the C6 theoretical physics option for MPhys students. The lectures covered path integrals, many-body quantum mechanics, Landau theory, and stochastic processes, and 20 of these lectures also constituted the Advanced Quantum Theory course in the 91探花 MMathPhys programme.
