David Saxton (1986-present) is a British mathematician and computer scientist known for his work on hypergraphs[1] . He studied mathematics at The University of Cambridge, where he took a gold medal for <73kg judo[2] and completed his PhD in 2012. [3] He lived briefly in Brazil, where he worked with Rob Morris on Graph Theory and Ramsey Theory [4]

In 2024 he was awarded the Leroy P. Steele Prize for Seminal Contribution to Research.[5]

He currently works at Google DeepMind[6], where his research has covered reasoning abilities of neural models as well as neural net interpretability.[7]
