'''Ceratocystis pluriannulata''' is a plant pathogen.
'''Marcus du Sautoy''' (born [[August 26]], [[1965]]) is a Professor of [[Mathematics]] at the [[University of Oxford]]. Formerly a [[Fellow#Academic use|Fellow]] of [[All Souls College]], he is now a Fellow of [[Wadham College]]. He is currently an [[Engineering and Physical Sciences Research Council|EPSRC]] Senior Media Fellow and was previously a [[Royal Society]] University Research Fellow. He has been named by ''[[The Independent on Sunday]]'' as one of the UK's leading scientists. In 2001 he won the prestigious [[Berwick Prize]] of the [[London Mathematical Society]], which is awarded every two years to reward the best mathematical research by a mathematician under forty. He writes for ''[[The Times]]'' and ''[[The Guardian]]'' and has appeared several times on [[BBC Radio 4]] and television. He currently presents the television program, ''Mind Games'', on [[BBC Four]]. He has also written numerous academic articles and books on mathematics, the most recent being ''Finding Moonshine''.

He grew up in [[Henley-on-Thames]] where he attended [[Gillotts School]] and then King James' College (now [[Henley College]]) before going on to Oxford University. He currently lives in London with his wife, children and cat. He plays football and the trumpet.

In March, 2006, his article ''Prime Numbers Get Hitched'' <ref>[http://www.seedmagazine.com/news/2006/03/prime_numbers_get_hitched.php Seed: Prime Numbers Get Hitched<!-- Bot generated title -->]</ref> was published on [[Seed Magazine]]'s website. In it he explained how the number [[Answer to Life, the Universe, and Everything|42]], mentioned in ''[[The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy]]'' as the answer to everything, is related to the [[Riemann zeta function]]. He has also published an article in the scientific magazine ''[[New Scientist]]''.

In December 2006 du Sautoy delivered the 2006 [[Royal Institution Christmas Lectures]] under the collective title ''The Num8er My5teries''. This was only the third time the subject of the lectures had been mathematics — on the first occasion in 1978, when the lecture was delivered by [[Erik Christopher Zeeman]], du Sautoy had been a schoolboy in the audience. The venue for the 2006 Christmas Lectures was the [[Institution of Engineering and Technology]]'s headquarters at Savoy Place, [[London]].
