Neil Lunt

Professor of Social Policy, University of York
My undergraduate and postgraduate degrees are in politics (University of Durham) and political philosophy (University of York). I have a PhD in social policy (Massey University, New Zealand).

Following a stint during 1991 as research assistant in education policy, I joined the Social Policy Research Unit here at York. Between 1992 and 1996 I was a research fellow on various externally funded projects focused on the organisation and delivery of health and social services, and disability employment policy.

Between 1997 and 2006 I spent a decade in New Zealand based at Massey University (Auckland) teaching policy studies. I returned to York in January 2007.

Neil Malan

Research associate, Climate Change Research Centre, UNSW Sydney
I’m a physical oceanographer at the University of New South Wales, having spent the last 5 years working on how the dynamics of the ocean and atmosphere influence the continental shelf waters off the east coast of Australia. I also have research interests in ocean observing systems, marine extremes, shelf-deep ocean connections and biophysical coupling.

Born and raised in Cape Town, South Africa, I completed my PhD on the dynamics of the Agulhas Current off the east coast of Southern Africa, before moving to Australia for my postdoctoral work.

Neil Marsh

Professor of Chemistry and Biological Chemistry, University of Michigan
My laboratory is interested in novel mechanisms of enzyme catalysis, enzyme regulation and designing self-assembling proteins. Our current research projects focus on enzymes that catalyze carboxylation and decarboxylation of aromatic molecules, which may provide routes to green commodity chemicals. We are also studying the regulation and interactions of enzymes involved in the cellular antiviral response. Lastly, we are developing strategies for the assembly of proteins into nano-cages. Our research is inherently inter-disciplinary and draws on a synergistic combination of bio-organic, bio-inorganic and bio-physical chemistry. We are fortunate to enjoy numerous productive collaborations with other research groups at Michigan.

Neil Sims

Senior Research Scientist, CSIRO
My PhD used Landsat time series data to map the Lower Balonne Floodplain in SE Qld. I linked the distribution of inundation with the growth dynamics of vegetation communities, and predicted outcomes from changes in landscape composition on the dynamics of the ecosystem as a whole. My work at CSIRO has focussed on the use of airborne, hi-res, hyperspectral and SAR satellite imagery to map features including the distribution and severity of diseases in plantation forests, forest fertiliser requirements and flood modelling for the MDBA. Recently I led a project to write methods for UN Sustainable Development Goal 15.3.1 (the proportion of land that is degraded over total land area) on behalf of the UNCCD. These methods are provided as guidance to all countries reporting on this SDG. I co-Chair the GEO Land Degradation Neutrality Initiative, which uses the methods from SDG 15.3.1 to measure degradation. More recently my work has focused on identifying and supporting the Earth observation needs of developing countries including Vietnam and the Pacific islands.

Neil Turok

Higgs Chair of Theoretical Physics, University of Edinburgh
Neil Turok is the inaugural Higgs Chair of Theoretical Physics at the University of Edinburgh. He holds the Roger Penrose Visiting Professorship at Perimeter Institute for Theoretical Physics in Canada where he is emeritus Director. Before that he was Chair of Mathematical Physics at Cambridge and Professor of Physics at Princeton.

Neil’s day job is developing and testing fundamental physics theories of the universe. His first-principles predictions of correlations between the temperature and polarisation of the cosmic background radiation (CBR), and the CBR and the galaxy distribution have been confirmed at high precision. His work also ruled out several popular theoretical models. Recently, he showed how a CPT-symmetric universe could provide the simplest-yet explanation of the cosmic dark matter, the large scale properties of the universe and the primordial density variations.

Born in South Africa, Neil founded the African Institute for Mathematical Sciences (AIMS), now the continent’s leading institute for postgraduate training and research in the mathematical sciences. AIMS has over 3500 Masters alumni, from 45 African countries. More than 800 have proceeded to PhDs.
In 2008 Neil won the TED prize for his research and for AIMS. In 2016 he was made an Honorary Fellow of the UK Institute of Physics and was awarded the John Torrence Tate Medal of the American Institute of Physics for International Leadership in Physics. In 2018 he was appointed an Officer of the Order of Canada.

Nham Tran

Associate Professor and MTP Connect REDI Industry Fellow, University of Technology Sydney
Nham is both a teacher and a cancer researcher, specialising in small RNA biology and diagnostic technologies. He has dedicated his career to creating tools for diagnosing diseases. Nham earned his PhD from Johnson and Johnson and UNSW, where he focused on studying small RNA molecules and how they can be used in real-world applications.

During his postdoctoral training, Nham led a team that published the first study characterising microRNAs in head and neck cancers. This groundbreaking research led him to come up with the idea of using these microRNAs as markers to detect Head and Neck Cancers early on. He was also the first to understand the role of these molecules in salivary gland tumors and holds several patents in this area. Currently, he's leading a team of researchers who are studying the RNA aspects of oral cancers.

Aside from his work, Nham is an educator and served as the Deputy Head of School for Teaching (2019-2022). He teaches engineering students about molecular diagnostics, runs workshops on qPCR, and is involved in mentoring programs.

In his free time, Nham loves going rock climbing in the Blue Mountains with his family, exploring different parts of the world, writing awesome science papers, and building PCR machines.

Nhu Nguyen

PhD Ccandidate in Management, McGill University
I’m a PhD candidate in Management at McGill University. My research addresses gender inequality in two crucial areas: entrepreneurship and film-making. In entrepreneurship, I focus on uncovering the subtle biases that often go unnoticed in startup evaluations. Meanwhile, my work in film-making centers on identifying the key network structures that foster women's career longevity as movie directors. My research has been published in the prestigious 'Entrepreneurship Theory and Practice' journal and honoured with the Kauffman Foundation's Best Student Paper Award. Through my work, I hope to contribute to global efforts aimed at combating gender inequality and fostering an equitable and inclusive work environment for people of all genders.
