Josh completed his BSc in Mathematics at Royal Holloway, University of London, before earning an MSc in Mathematics at King’s College London. His research interests can be described broadly as mathematical physics. Josh wrote his MSc dissertation on “The Direct Method in the Calculus of Variations” which examined the direct method via applications to the Thomas-Fermi problem and modelling rotating star systems. He is also currently interested in the Vlasov-Poisson equations which are used to model galactic dynamics.

Outside of maths, Josh enjoys video/tabletop/ trading card games, reading, coffee and going on long nature walks.
