About
My full name is Morenikeji Neri, but I usually go by Keji. I am a third year PhD student (starting my studies in October 2021) in the University of Bath's Mathematical Foundations of Computation group, under the supervision of Thomas Powell. My main area of research involves using tools from logic to study different areas of mathematics such as, functional analysis and probability theory. I am also interested in computability theory and formalization using the proof assistant Lean (check out some of my work).

Teaching
I tutor a range of STEM subjects, at undergraduate level and below, privately (usually online) and I do some teaching for the University of Bath. Here is a list of the courses I have taught at the University of Bath.
- 2022: I tutored the Logic and semantics of programming languages module
