I'm currently teaching Complexe Functies (WISB311).
In the past, I have tought functies en reeksen, complexe functies, wiskundige methoden voor physici, and once again functies en reeksen. Here are some seminars that I led in the past: Operads and loop spaces (spring 09), Stable homotopy theory (fall 08), Twisted K-theory (spring 08), and a link to the Utrecht staff colloquium.

This coming summer (16 to 21 August 2010), I'll be leading a workshop on Operator Algebras and Conformal Field Theory (i.e. conformal nets).

Together with my MIT friends Chris Douglas, John Francis, and Mike Hill, I've organized the first four Talbot workshops.
This task has been taken over by Sheel Ganatra, Owen Gwilliam, and Hiro Tanaka.
