Anthony Kay was a Lecturer in Mathematical Sciences at Loughborough University for 32 years up to his retirement in 2020. Although his research has been in applications of mathematics, he has taught a wide range of topics in pure and applied mathematics to students at all levels, from first year to postgraduate.
