Treisman is a professor of mathematics and executive director of the Charles A. Dana Center at the University of Texas, Austin. He is widely known for creating the Emerging Scholars Program (ESP), designed to increase the number of minority and other underserved students who succeed in mathematics.https://news.harvard.edu/gazette/wp-content/uploads/2006/03/8-harvardfoundation1-225-1.jpg
