David Wiltshire
Professor of Theoretical Physics, University of Canterbury
David L Wiltshire is a professor of theoretical physics at the University of Canterbury, Christchurch, New Zealand. His research interests are in general relativity, cosmology and quantum gravity.
He began his career working on higher-dimensional gravity, brane worlds and black holes as a PhD student in the Cambridge relativity group in the mid 1980s. He has subsequently explored a large range of ideas on topics including quantum cosmology, gravastars and dark energy. Since the mid 2000s his research has focused on the averaging problem and backreaction in inhomogeneous cosmology. By revisiting the foundational principles of general relativity, he has developed the "timescape cosmology", a phenomenological viable alternative to the standard cosmology, without dark energy.
David is on the editorial board of Classical and Quantum Gravity, an IUPAP representative on the committee of the International Society on General Relativity and Gravitation (ISGRG), President of the New Zealand Institute of Physics, and a member of the Foundational Questions Institute (FQXi). He is also a past President of the Australasian Society for General Relativity and Gravitation.

David L. Haberman
Professor Emeritus, Religious Studies, Indiana University
I am interested in a wide range of South Asian religious traditions and concentrate on the medieval and modern movements of northern India. Much of my work has focused on the culture of Braj, an active Krishna pilgrimage site known for its lively temple festivals, performative traditions, and literary creations.
More recently I have shifted my research interests to include the ancient city of Banaras, a pilgrimage center and temple town located on the bank of the Ganges River. My approach combines both textual research and anthropological fieldwork. Acting as a Way of Salvation: A Study of Rāgānugā Bhakti Sādhana (Oxford University Press, 1988) is an investigation of religious reality construction based on a close examination of a meditation technique devised by the theoreticians of Braj. I have published a book on the circular pilgrimage around Braj, entitled Journey Through the Twelve Forests: An Encounter with Krishna (Oxford, 1994). This book contemplates the complexities of circular wanderings and different strategies for dealing with the tumultuous nature of desire as it takes the reader on a spatial and mythological journey.

Postdoctoral Research Associate, Behavioural and Evolutionary Ecology, University of Oxford
I am interested in understanding why individuals behave in the way they do and the ultimate fitness consequences and proximate mechanisms of those behaviours. I am keen on exploring the causes that generate individual variation in behavioural traits in the animal kingdom, regardless of the target species. Further, I also have a deep interest in exploring how individuals adapt to the fluctuating environmental conditions and the fitness consequences of the different life-history strategies present under those variable conditions.
After being a PhD student at the National Natural History Museum (MNCN) in Madrid studying kestrel colouration, I moved to Montpellier to continue my research on the evolutionary dynamics of coloration focusing on blue tits and on the Paridae family as a postdoctoral researcher. Currently, I am a PDRA at the Edward Grey Institute (University of Oxford), where I focus on analysing great tit phenological responses to climate change.

Dr Reynolds is a sociologist interested in waste, plastics and food, and in how these are shaped by care and processes of politicisation, particularly in relation to sustainability. His PhD thesis in Human Geography (Monash University, Melbourne) investigated the experiences, practices and perspectives of people who avoid using plastic materials in their households in Australia. His MA in Sociology (Otago University, Aotearoa/New Zealand) investigated expert perceptions of food insecurity in Aotearoa/New Zealand and examined food insecurity in this food-rich country in relation to neoliberalism. He has published peer-reviewed articles and book chapters about contemporary food and waste issues.
His current research at ARI (National University of Singapore) investigates the household consumption and disposal of plastic materials, and the social, historical and digital practices that shape women’s household management of plastic waste in Asia and Australia.

For instance, how does the spread of climate migrants, species the expand or shift their distributions due to climate change, affect the ecosystems they move into? He uses field observations coupled with field and laboratory experiments to answer these questions. He is an expert in marine invertebrates, especially worms, crustaceans, and bivalves.

He was a 2022-2023 Sacred Heart University Shakespeare Scholar in Residence. His antiracist research, which centers on pedagogy and on how racial ideologies circulate in and beyond the early modern period, is published or forthcoming in numerous peer-reviewed and public venues such as Shakespeare Bulletin, Literature Compass, Radical Teacher, Shakespeare Studies, Hamlet: The State of Play, White People in Shakespeare, Public Books and Los Angeles Review of Books. His forthcoming book projects, both under contract with Cambridge University Press, examine how whiteness operates in Shakespearean drama. Through his Mellon/ACLS Scholars and Society Fellowship, Dr. Brown had a 2021-2022 residency with The Racial Imaginary Institute, founded by Claudia Rankine; he is also the dramaturg for Keith Hamilton Cobb's Untitled Othello Project. A member of Phi Beta Kappa and an engaged academic citizen, Brown sits on the editorial boards of Shakespeare Bulletin and Shakespeare Survey; and he is an executive board member of the Race Before Race conference series and a member of the American Shakespeare Center Board of Trustees.
A passionate and innovative pedagogue, Dr. Brown pushes his students to pursue the ideas that intrigue them most. He trains students to close read texts and he encourages them to take intellectual risks. By discussing critical issues such as power, class, sexuality, gender and race in the classroom, he enables his students to identify ways in which the past intrudes into and informs the present. He first experimented with this pedagogical approach while serving as Trinity's 2013 Ann Plato Predoctroal Fellow in English. During the fellowship, he developed his signature course, "(Early) Modern Literature: Crossing the Color-Line," which combines the study of English Renaissance drama and African-American literature.
