Angela Bartie
Senior Lecturer in History, University of Strathclyde
Angela Bartie is an historian of the post-1945 era. Her research interests cover social and cultural change in the second half of the twentieth century, with specific interests in the role of the arts in society, cultural policy, and arts festivals alongside ongoing interests relating to youth gangs, violence, media representations of young people, and official responses to delinquency.
Bartie is the author of The Edinburgh Festivals: Culture and Society in Post-war Britain and, with Eleanor Bell, editor of The International Writers' Conference Revisited: Edinburgh, 1962. She is currently working on a major collaborative project on the history of historical pageants in Britain (1905-2016) as well as continuing to research the Glasgow arts festivals, Clyde Fair International and Mayfest. Bartie has also worked and published on aspects of youth gangs, violence, media representations of young people, and official responses to delinquency, most recently as PI on a British Academy Small Grant funded project on oral histories of youth gangs in Easterhouse, c. 1965-1975, in conjunction with Alistair Fraser, University of Hong Kong (2011).
Bartie initially joined the Scottish Oral History Centre as a Research Fellow in November 2006 and, since then, has been involved in writing funding bids (including the successful AHRC Knowledge Transfer Fellowship, The Voice in the Museum), developing and teaching SOHC oral history training seminars, providing advice and guidance to academics, museums, archives & libraries staff, community and heritage groups and the general public, and the day-to-day running and strategic direction of the Centre. Between 2006 and 2009, she also worked in research posts at the Universities of Strathclyde, Glasgow Caledonian and Edinburgh.

Angela Cruz
Senior Lecturer in Marketing, Monash University
I'm a Senior Lecturer in Marketing at Monash University and hold a PhD in Marketing from The University of Auckland.
My research focuses on how people and companies navigate the boundaries of culture, gender, and class in globalising and digitalising cultures of consumption. Under this broad theme, my research spans varied contexts. For example, a recent study published in Journal of Consumer Research examines how international K-pop fans manage the tension between cultural appreciation and cultural appropriation. In another project, published in Journal of Business Research, I map key approaches that firms use to craft food products for culturally diverse markets. Finally, in another study that was just published in International Marketing Review, I analyse how unconventional luxury collaborations help brands adapt to changing tastes among young Chinese consumers. I draw on cross-disciplinary, critical, and poststructuralist modes of theorising and use a range of qualitative methodologies.

Angela Wright
Professor of Romantic Literature, University of Sheffield
My interests lie in literature published between the 1760s and 1820s, and my publications have come broadly from the interactions between the Gothic and Romantic modes during these decades, both in Britain and in France. In 2013, for example, I published Britain, France and the Gothic: The Import of Terror with Cambridge University Press, and there I investigated the roles played by translation, adaptation and silent plagiarism between the Gothic and Romantic modes in Britain and France. The book was shortlisted for the Allan Lloyd Smith memorial prize for Gothic Fiction in 2015, and won an honourable mention.
My new book Mary Shelley explores the continuing fascination with the aesthetics of terror and horror that pervade the works of Mary Shelley from Frankenstein in 1818 to the later novels and short stories that she published in the 1810s, 1820s and even 30s. By demonstrating the shared aesthetics of terror and horror that range across her body of work, I hope that this book will show the agility, discursive breadth and continuing preoccupations that characterise Mary Shelley’s writing throughout her career. The book was published in January 2018, and you can see its cover here. http://www.uwp.co.uk/book/mary-shelley-hardback/
Other publications include the co-edited Romantic Gothic: An Edinburgh Companion (Edinburgh University Press, 2015) and Ann Radcliffe, Romanticism and the Gothic (Cambridge University Press, 2014) (both with Dale Townshend). I am also currently co-editing a three volume Cambridge History of the Gothic with Professors Dale Townshend and Catherine Spooner.
I am also currently writing another monograph, entitled Fostering Romanticism which addresses the wealth and considerable weight of poetry, drama and prose published between the 1760s and 1820s that focusses upon the foster or adoptive parent. This research was funded by means of a Leverhulme fellowship in 2016-17, and should, I hope, be completed by Autumn 2018.

Angie Hilliker
Associate Professor of Biology, University of Richmond
A cell constantly alters the expression of its genes (and thus the proteins it makes) in order to respond to its environment or change its function. Gene expression can be modulated at many levels, from the birth of a messenger RNA (mRNA) to its destruction. Once it enters the cytoplasm, an mRNA can have various fates? it can be translated, translationally repressed, or degraded. The function of the mRNA is dictated by the proteins that associate with it to form an mRNP (mRNA-protein complex). For example, a translating mRNA associates with the ribosome, which will use the mRNA to make a protein. Alternatively, a non-translating mRNA associates with translational repressors or decay factors that sequester the mRNA from the ribosome or destroy the mRNA. The mRNP composition is dynamic, which allows the mRNA to move among translation, storage, or decay complexes. Dr. Hilliker's lab studies how mRNPs alter their composition to change the translatability of the mRNA. She uses budding yeast and a combination of genetics, cell biology, and biochemistry to understand how a cell determines the fate of an mRNA. This type of regulation of translation is important in all cells, but is especially important early in development, during stress, and in learning and memory.
