Kirsty-Louise Cameron

Lecturer in Criminology, Leeds Beckett University
I am a Lecturer in Criminology at Leeds Beckett University, with research interests related to antisocial behaviour, social housing, intersectionality, vulnerability and welfare conditionality. My teaching relates to criminal justice, intersectionality and research methods. My PhD research at the University of York is related to antisocial behaviour, using a newly developed theoretical framework of vulnerability to understand alleged perpetrator experiences of antisocial behaviour. This longitudinal research followed 15 social housing tenants over 6-9 months whilst they were alleged to be engaged in antisocial behaviour. I also have an MA in Social Research and BA Hons in Social Policy at the University of York.

Prior to starting my PhD, I worked in the social housing sector for 8 years across customer service and housing officer roles. Industry experience of antisocial behaviour and the management of social housing tenants solidified my interest in the perspectives and experiences of social tenants and, specifically, alleged perpetrators of antisocial behaviour who are rarely surveyed by their social housing providers and are often seen as a hard-to-reach population by academic researchers.

Kitty-Rose Foley

Senior Lecturer, Faculty of Health, Southern Cross University
I am an AHPRA registered paediatric Occupational Therapist and a Senior Lecturer undertaking teaching and research activities. My research program is focused on the health and wellbeing of people with intellectual and developmental disabilities. I completed my PhD at the Telethon Kids Institute in Perth, WA. Following this, I undertook a Postdoctoral Research Fellowship at UNSW Sydney which involved co-leading the development of the Australian Longitudinal Study of Autism in Adults (ALSAA).

I am passionate about conducting research which is co-developed and co-produced with the clients we are aiming to serve. This includes working with the Autistic community in research development and implementation. My research was utilised in the Royal Commission into Violence, Abuse, Neglect, and Exploitations of People with Disability as evidence, and also was cited within the National Autism Strategy. Conducting research which leads to real world impact and changes is a key priority and focus of my research.

Klara Fischer

Associate professor in Rural Development, Swedish University of Agricultural Sciences
Food production is at the same time central to humanity and intimately connected with many of the serious challenges to global climate and ecologies. My research interests concern how ideas and practices regarding today's sustainability challenges in food production and natural resource management are negotiated and turned into practice, and in particular how marginalised groups are affected. While the biodiversity crisis and the climate crisis are both real and urgent to address, we must explore how the burden for needed changes is distributed, between the global North and South, within countries and local communities, and between humans and the environment. Asking these questions is key to my research. Geographically most of my research is located in Africa (esp. Uganda & South Africa) where I study how agricultural and natural resource policies and wider development agendas affect African smallholders.

Kolaia Raisele

PhD candidate, youth leadership in the Pacific, La Trobe University
I am Kolaia Raisele, originally from the Fiji Islands. I am currently undertaking my PhD at La Trobe University's Department of Social Inquiry in Melbourne, Australia, where my research focuses on the complexities of youth leadership and civic engagement in the Pacific Islands. My academic journey began at the University of Canterbury, where I completed my Bachelor of Arts, majoring in Anthropology and Political Science, between 2013 and 2015. This early stage sparked my love for Pacific Studies and guided my academic and career path.

Driven by a deep-seated interest in the Pacific region, I pursued further studies at the University of the South Pacific, earning a Postgraduate Diploma in Pacific Studies from 2017 to 2018. My commitment to this field led me to complete a Master of Arts in Pacific Studies at the same institution between 2019 and 2020. Recognizing the importance of effective teaching in academia, I also obtained a Postgraduate Certificate in Tertiary Teaching during 2020-2021, equipping me with the essential skills to educate and inspire others in my field.

In August 2022, I embarked on my PhD journey at La Trobe University. This significant step in my academic career has been both challenging and rewarding, allowing me to further explore and contribute to the understanding of youth leadership and civic engagement within the Pacific Islands. Since March 2023, I have also been serving as a Casual Academic in the Department of Social Inquiry at La Trobe University. This role has provided me with the invaluable opportunity to engage with students and colleagues, fostering a collaborative and dynamic academic environment.

My academic and professional qualifications reflect my unwavering dedication to the study of the Pacific Islands, with a special focus on the pivotal role of youth in shaping their communities. Through my research and teaching, I aim to make a meaningful contribution to both the academic community and the wider society, driven by a belief in the transformative power of engaged scholarship.

Konstantinos Dimopoulos

Professor in Particle Cosmology, Lancaster University
I am a Professor in Particle Cosmology in the Physics Department of Lancaster University. My research is in Theoretical Cosmology and, in particular, in the physics of Cosmic Inflation. Inflation is a period of superluminal expansion of space that occurred a tiny fraction of a second after the Big Bang.

It is responsible for making the observable Universe large and uniform. Also, it generated the small variations (perturbations) in the density of matter that gave rise to the formation of galaxies. These cosmological perturbations reflect themselves onto the Cosmic Microwave Background (CMB) radiation by causing small temperature variations.

Models of inflation are based on fundamental physics like quantum field theory, supersymmetry, supergravity and string theory. The characteristics of cosmological perturbations which are observed in the CMB can tell apart models of inflation and, therefore, can constrain fundamental theories.

Thus, theoretical cosmologists, like myself, use the Early universe as a giant laboratory to test fundamental physics, well beyond Earth based experiments, like particle accelerators.

Kory Evans

Assistant Professor of BioSciences, Rice University
The Evans lab is interested in the ecology and evolution of phenotypic diversity, integrating data from developmental biology, ecology, biomechanics and phylogeny to understand this process at various timescales. Bony fishes provide a unique opportunity to ask these questions and study the origins of phenotypic diversity along with the interface between phenotype and environment, within the most species-rich assemblage of vertebrates on the planet. Our research program is centered on three questions:
1. How do patterns of ontogenetic variation scale to patterns of phenotypic diversity?
2. How do intrinsic (ontogenetic constraints) and extrinsic (environmental variation) factors influence patterns of phenotypic diversification and convergence?
3. How do functional traits covary in development and evolution?
