PhD Candidate, School of Health and Social Care, University of Essex
Susanna Alyce is a doctoral candidate at the University of Essex researching within a “Mad Studies” paradigm CSA survivors’ experiences of trust and trustworthiness. She is an educator in trauma-informed practice at the University for clinical psychology students, and for the charity Survivors’ Voices.
Susanna also delivers Mindfulness Based Stress Reduction (MBSR), and is a yoga teacher. She is currently working towards her diploma as a Person-Centred Counsellor at The Norwich Centre. She is a member of the Tavistock Network for Non-Recent CSA (https://www.networknrcsa.com), and facilitates two peer support groups for researchers.
Susanna is a survivor of child sex abuse (CSA). Her own debilitating anxiety led her to meditation and yoga in her early 20s. These effective self-care practices enabled her to live a full and rewarding life, while managing her internal landscape of fear. It was not until she turned 50 that she discovered the origin of what she now understands as ‘trauma distress’ caused by the dissociated and silenced memories of CSA.

Freigeist Fellow, Institute of Photogrammetry and Remote Sensing (IPF), Karlsruhe Institute of Technology
My work combines (big) data science with geospatial data to study the impacts of urbanization and climate change on society and nature. I am particularly interested in the role of the built environment on atmospheric, surface, and subsurface temperature disparities. Because of my trans-disciplinary background in physics, hydrogeology, geospatial data science, and public policy I use a variety of tools such as remote sensing, machine learning, and analytical and statistical models. A common thread in my projects is the use of large geospatial datasets and the development of tools for decision making that incorporate both built and natural environments.
My research to date focuses on four main areas:
Environmental Justice
Subsurface Heat Recycling
Subsurface Temperatures
Urban Heat

Her research has received substantial funding, for instance from the Dutch Research Foundation and the Dutch and German Ministries of Defense. Her work has been published in leading journals of social psychology (e.g., Personality and Social Psychological Bulletin), organization and management science (e.g., Journal of Management Studies, Organizational Behavior and Human Decision Processes) and multidisciplinary science journals (e.g., The Lancet, Nature, Climate Change).

Associate Professor in Medical Anthropology, UCL
Susie's work focuses on reproductive disruptions, pregnancy endings and miscarriage. Her interest on impaired parenthood and compromised reproduction was piqued during her PhD work on Gulf War Syndrome (GWS) and her book Impotent Warriors: Gulf War Syndrome, Vulnerability and Masculinity includes these themes (Berghahn, 2009). Her research explored how cultural context impacts the way pregnancy loss is framed, articulated, and experienced in Qatar and the UK; and led to the book Pregnancy and Miscarriage in Qatar: Women, reproduction and the state (Bloomsbury, 2020) and Navigating Miscarriage: Social, Medical and Conceptual Perspectives (Berghahn, 2020). In 2019 She was awarded a Wellcome Trust University Award to continue her research into pregnancy endings. This ongoing project investigates what is left behind when a pregnancy ends and asks how these materials are perceived and handled in different contexts (clinics, homes, burial sites, crematoria) and by different people (women, their families, doctors, nurses, and funeral staff). For this work she has been based at an NHS Early Pregnancy Assessment Unit and its associated gynaecology wards. Susie has previously worked for the NHS as a clinically applied medical anthropologist.

Dr. Susitha Wanigaratne is a Senior Research Associate at the Edwin S.H. Leong Centre for Healthy Children and a social epidemiologist with a PhD in Epidemiology and a Masters of Health Science from the Dalla Lana School of Public Health.
My research examines the structural and social determinants of immigrant and refugee health. I primarily use national and provincial immigration-health linked administrative databases in my research but also have experience with qualitative and community-engaged and participatory research methods. Most recently, I have supported research examining COVID-19 vaccine coverage among pediatric immigrant and refugee populations, and understanding changes in the uptake of the enhanced well-baby visit and diagnosis of neurodevelopmental outcomes among refugee children in Ontario. Taking the perspective that there is health in all policies, I am also leading a scoping review to understand and evaluate the structural and social supports offered to resettle refugees in ten host countries. I have also launched a community-partnered scoping review that assesses the health of international students globally. Using an intersectional lens, I hope to draw attention to the experiences of this growing and important group of young migrants.

The real challenge is to describe and predict the complex processes around coastal structures and their influence on natural systems, such as shoreline changes, water quality and natural habitats. This is in line with current Foresight programme on coastal flooding and erosion, Water Framework directives (water quality and habitats) and development of the offshore sustainable energy devices.

My research interests are primarily in gender, development, intersectionality, well-being, gendered agency, qualitative methods and South Asian studies.
My doctoral research explores intersectionality, well-being and agency amongst Nepali widows. The methodological approach taken involves a triangulation of qualaitive methods. My research hopes to not only contribute empirically to the limited scholarship on widowhood, especially in Nepal, but also conceptually to reimagine approaches to understanding and theorising widowhood. With this doctoral research, and my personal pursuits outwith this work, I hope to bring attention to the issue of widowhood and in some way improve the lives of Nepali widows.
