Mahjoor Lone
Postdoctoral Research Associate in Palaeoclimatology, Northumbria University, Newcastle
Like most people, I was always fascinated by the sky and stars until an internal revelation led me to question if I knew enough about the Earth. This led my quest to find out more and more about Earth and its processes. On this path, I tried to understand how water - the elixir of life, on this planet, cycles through oceans, atmosphere and rocks and I am still doing the same. I use geochemical methods to understand climatic changes across Asia and Africa over the past hundreds of thousands of years. I also use geoinformatics as a tool for contemporary environmental monitoring and assessment. I learn each day and am a student for life.

Maikel Rosabal
Professeur agrégé, département des sciences biologiques, Université du Québec à Montréal (UQAM)
Diplomé à l’Universidad de La Havana en biochimie avec intérêt pour la recherche en écotoxicologie, j’ai débuté un projet de maîtrise à l’INRS sous la supervision de Landis Hare et Peter Campbell en 2009. Ensuite, j’ai décidé d’entamer un projet de recherche doctoral avec la même équipe. Mes recherches portaient sur la gestion intracellulaire de plusieurs métaux dans deux modèles d’animal : larves d’insecte et des anguilles. Les résultats de recherche générés dans ces études m’ont permis d’obtenir la médaille d’or du Gouverneur Général de Canada. J’ai fait une année de recherche postdoctorale dans le laboratoire de Marc Amyot (Université de Montréal) en 2015 et une année après, j'ai été engagé comme professeur au département des sciences biologiques à l’Université du Québec à Montréal. Les recherches de mon équipe portant d'abord sur la compréhension de la manière dont les métaux traces provoquent des effets délétères en interagissant avec des biomolécules importantes au niveau subcellulaire dans différents tissus d'organismes aquatiques, ainsi que sur l'évaluation des conséquences biochimiques et physiologiques de ces interactions, de l'individu au niveau de l'écosystème. Les principales approches de mes recherches incluent des méthodes de fractionnement subcellulaire des métaux et des techniques liées à la métallomique environnementale. Les connaissances approfondies de la toxicité des métaux générées dans mon laboratoire vont contribuer à développer des outils environnementaux à utiliser pour l'évaluation de l'impact des métaux traces sur les écosystèmes aquatiques.

Maiken Mosleth King
Lecturer in Ancient History, University of Bristol
My PhD research, supervised by Dr Shelley Hales and Dr Silke Knippschild, centres on Egyptian funerary stelae from the Roman period, using the site of Terenouthis/Kom Abou Billou as a case study. I am exploring how the inscriptions and iconography are used to construct and express the social identity of the deceased, with particular focus on gender, religious identity and ethnic identity; I am also investigating the effects of linguistic interference from the Egyptian language on the Greek language in Terenouthis.
I have previously completed a BA and MA in Egyptology at the University of Liverpool, where I specialised in the ancient Egyptian language and literary texts. My BA thesis investigated the concept of divine kingship in didactic literature from the Middle Kingdom period. My MA thesis, supervised by Dr Roland Enmarch and Prof Christopher Eyre, focused on the themes and motifs in the Late Egyptian literary text 'Tale of Two Brothers'.
My research interests are diverse and include ancient Egyptian language and literature, cross-cultural contact in the ancient Near East and Mediterranean, language contact in the eastern Mediterranean and Near East, Hellenism and Greek language in Egypt and the Near East, comparative Semitic philology, religion in ancient Egypt and the Mediterranean, Coptic language and literature, early Christianity, the reception of ancient Egypt and archaeology in modern visual media, and the reception of ancient Egypt in 19th and 20th century spirituality and religious movements.
My linguistic competence is broad and includes Egyptian hieroglyphs, Coptic, Classical Greek, Latin, Biblical Hebrew, Phoenician and Classical Arabic.
In addition to my academic research I am actively involved in the outreach programmes Access to Bristol and Classics for All, delivering workshops to schools in the South on a wide range of topics related to the study of ancient Egypt, Greece and Rome. I also regularly teach courses in ancient Egyptian hieroglyphics and give public lectures on a range of topics related to Egyptology and ancient history. For upcoming events and courses, please visit https://mmkingevents.weebly.com and https://kemetklub.co.uk.

Maisha Wester
Lecturer, American literature and African American Cultural Studies, University of Sheffield
My research and teaching focuses on Gothic literature and Horror Film, although I also teach American literature and African American Cultural Studies. I specifically investigate racial discourses and manifestations in Gothic Literature and Horror film, as well as the way Black Diasporic people have appropriated the genres to speak back against oppressive socioeconomic rhetoric. For my BA fellowship, I am investigating the ways the Gothic has and continues to impact and inform anti-Black language and discourses from the Gothic’s rise to our current era (as such, I will also consider the ways Horror Film takes up this task in the twentieth-century). I am especially interested in how the genres morph alongside any moments of racial progress, thus providing a means to consistently erase Black humanity despite seeming political and ideological advancement. To put it simply, I want to explore how Gothic Literature and Horror Film have contributed to populations still needing to shout “Black Lives Matter” in protest during the Twenty-First century—150 years of the US abolition of Slavery and over 200 years after its abolition in the UK—at a point of such intellectual and scientific progress that we should be well beyond this discussion. Although my work focuses upon anti-Black discourse, it is also inspired by and has ramifications for anti-immigrant discourses (such as rhetoric warning against hordes of non-white immigrants coming to rape and pillage the nation).

Maitrayee Deka
Senior Lecturer of Sociology, University of Essex
Before joining Essex, I did my PhD from the Graduate School of Social and Political Sciences at the University of Milan and have spent two years as a post-doctoral researcher at the University of Milan, working on the research project P2PValue, funded by the European Commission's FP7 program.
My research is in the area of Economic Sociology, STS, Consumer Cultures and Social Theory. I am interested in looking at alternative systems to global capitalism to frame them as a distinct analytical and political category. Part of this interest emerges from examining global bazaar economies as a popular economic system based on my ethnography in Delhi's Electronic Bazaars and developed as a monograph, Traders and Tinkers: Bazaars in the Global Economy, published with Stanford University Press.
I am currently researching the Whitechapel market in East London to investigate bazaars as intellectual places drawing from the literature on public space, and Autonomist Marxism. The other strand of my research focuses on marginal cultural spaces, particularly young adults' social media use in the Global South, to see how they engage with global platforms in unique ways. Overall, I am interested in building a more embedded social theory through observations and practices often ignored in the dominant academic framework.
