Jennifer Mercieca

Associate Professor of Communication and Director of the Aggie Agora, Texas A&M University

Jennifer Mercieca is an historian of American political discourse, especially discourses about citizenship, democracy, and the presidency. Her scholarship combines American history with rhetorical and political theory in an effort to understand democratic practices. She argues that current views of citizenship rely upon the tragic and ironic views, which do not enable citizens to act to control their government.

Her presidency research argues that we have heroic expectations for the presidency that are both unrealistic and unconstitutional and that these expectations burden the presidency. She is the author of Founding Fictions and the co-Editor of The Rhetoric of Heroic Expectations: Establishing the Obama Presidency.

Her essays have appeared in scholarly journals like Rhetoric & Public Affairs, The Quarterly Journal of Speech, and Presidential Studies Quarterly.

Dr. Mercieca teaches undergraduate and graduate courses on Political Communication, Presidential Rhetoric, Activism, Citizenship & the Public Sphere, Social Movements, Rhetorical Theory, and the History of American Public Discourse. Dr. Mercieca frequently appears as an expert commentator and as a consultant for news stories.

Jennifer Regan-Lefebvre

Professor of History, Trinity College
Jennifer Regan-Lefebvre is the chair of the Trinity College Department of History and a historian of modern Britain, Ireland, and British imperialism. She is the author of Imperial Wine: The British Empire and the Making of Wine's New World (University of California Press, April 2022), which won the André Simon Award. Her work combines political, economic, and cultural approaches, and puts wine history in dialogue with colonial history. She is currently co-editing the six-volume Bloomsbury Cultural History of Wine, with Charles Ludington. She is President of the Northeast Conference of British Studies.

Regan-Lefebvre's earlier work investigated the experience of the Irish in the British Empire, and particularly the intersections of nationalism, imperialism, and colonialism. Her first book was a biography of the Irish Quaker nationalist, and president of the 1894 Indian National Congress, Alfred Webb. Cosmopolitan Nationalism in the Victorian Empire revealed a strain of Irish nationalism that was globally-minded, civic, and committed to imperial reform. She also edited and published the memoirs of J. F. X. O'Brien, revealing his radical engagements in France, New Orleans, and Nicaragua before his entry into Fenian politics.

Regan-Lefebvre teaches widely across British and world history and enjoys developing new classes to stimulate students' interest in the past and to build their skills as historians and communicators. Her classes include an introductory British history survey, seminars on British cultural history, wine history, Irish history, and historical networks, and an experiential course in parliamentary debate. She has been particularly proud to supervise a number of senior thesis writers in undertaking archival research in the UK. Her former Trinity research students have gone on to pursue graduate degrees in history at Cambridge, Yale, and Carnegie Mellon.

Regan-Lefebvre has also written for Decanter and VinePair, and worked as a historical consultant for heritage and wine organizations. She teaches a free, open, online course on the history of wine, available through Trinity EdX. For her scholarship and educational impact, Regan-Lefebvre was named one of the "Future 50" of the global wine industry by the Wine and Spirits Education Trust and the International Wine and Spirits Competition in 2019. She holds a WSET Level 3 Award in Wine.

Jennifer Routledge

PhD Candidate, Environmental and Life Sciences, Trent University
Working under the supervision of Dr. Paul Szpak, in the Trent Environmental Archaeology Lab at Trent University, I use stable isotope analysis to reconstruct the paleoecology of circumpolar megafauna. Through comparisons of archaeological and modern samples we gain insights regarding the impacts of modern climate change. A deep-time perspective on the environment adds value to the climate discussion by establishing a baseline for ecology in an anthropogenically unaltered Arctic and allows for comparisons between modern impacts and outcomes resulting from past climate anomalies.
Prior to embarking on my PhD studies, I completed a Master's and a Bachelor of Science in Anthropology.

Jennifer Voss

Postdoctoral Researcher, School of Humanities and Performing Arts, De Montfort University
Jennifer Voss has been researching and teaching at DMU since 2015. In 2022, Jennifer completed her PhD in Drama and Film History; a project funded Midlands 4 Cities in partnership with the AHRC. Jennifer’s doctoral research explored women’s performances of emotion during the transition from silent to sound cinema in Britain and the US. Her work uses close performance analysis alongside archival research to offer an interdisciplinary investigation into acting training practices and women’s experiences of screen acting.

In 2023, Jennifer was awarded funding for a postdoctoral research project titled, 'Scrapbooking Screencraft: Exploring Performativity, Agency, and Women’s Screen Acting in the Archive’. This project explores the British fan-made scrapbooks of 1920s and 1930s film stars held within DMU’s Special Collections, and considers them alongside scrapbooks and ephemera held at a number of national archives. Through the creation of digital, performance-based, and site-specific exhibitions, Jennifer’s work seeks to identify, dissect and examine the performative personas of key screen actresses featured within the scrapbooks.

In addition to her academic research and teaching, Jennifer also has extensive experience working in various roles within a number of university archives, including: DMU Special Collections, Hammer Script Archive, Peter Whitehead Archive, and the Indian Cinema Archive.

Jennifer E. Khoury

Assistant Professor, Tier II Canada Research Chair in Interdisciplinary Neuroscience, Mount Saint Vincent University
Dr. Khoury is an Assistant Professor at Mount Saint Vincent University. Her research adopts an interdisciplinary and multi-method approach to understand how early life stress impacts the brain and behaviour of parents and children, at different stages of development. Early life stress encompasses circumstances such as abuse and neglect, parental mental health, and caregiving difficulties, which can adversely impact child development.

Dr. Khoury's research examines both typical and atypical development, spanning from the prenatal period to adulthood, using experimental, observational, and clinical research methods as well as meta-analyses. Much of this research includes longitudinal studies which examine neurobiological stress and emotion regulation, in parents and children. She studies stress responses primarily through physiological markers, including the stress hormone, cortisol, as well as through brain imaging techniques. Stress and emotional regulation are important contributors to child developmental outcomes, including developmental psychopathology. Thus, understanding these processes can inform research and practice to reduce adverse effects on child health and development.

Jennifer R. Whitson

Associate Professor, Sociology and Legal Studies, University of Waterloo
Jennifer Whitson is a sociologist who researches the secret life of software, the people who make it, and how both change our daily lives. Her current projects centre on digital media incubators, indie game makers, and on the surveillance implications of data-driven design, respectively

She's particularly interested in the shifting production models of the global game industry, and tracing how risk management practices, data mining, and digital distribution shape developers' creative work and the larger cultural role of games.

The design, deployment, and use of communication software is shaped by economic, social, technological and political concerns, which then create certain constraints and affordances in how people can use these technologies. For example, her work on gamification traces how governance and control are designed into games, smartphones, and websites, and how playful rationalities are used to shape user behaviour and thus govern through freedom and pleasure rather than fear and risk.

Most recently, she is conducting ethnographic work inside game studios and with developer communities to learn about the struggle for new media producers to find a balance between creative work and economic sustainability, asking "In a 'sharing' community where most digital products like games are low-cost/free, how do we do what we love while still managing to pay the rent?"

Jenny Cantlay

PhD Candidate in Avian Sensory Ecology, Royal Holloway University of London
My doctoral research focuses on avian sensory ecology and its application to conservation science. More specifically, I am combining avian visual and behavioural ecology to examine the problem of waterbirds’ fatal interactions with man-made hazards, including gill nets and wind turbines, in underwater and aerial environments.

This project will increase understanding about the visual abilities of waterbirds, and species’ behavioural responses to novel visual stimuli. I am measuring the visual fields of a wide range of waterbird species with varied foraging behaviour to provide an interspecific comparative evaluation of their visual field characteristics. This will help me to determine how their visual fields may influence their susceptibility to fishing net entrapment and collisions. I have also conducted an experiment in an aquatic environment to assess the behaviour of sea ducks to LED lights, a proposed mitigation measure for bycatch reduction.

The aim of this project is to utilise a sensory ecology approach to examine avian hazard susceptibility and inform the development of technological solutions to reduce bird mortalities.

Jenny Jenkins

Assistant Professor, Department of Earth Sciences, Durham University
My current focus is on imaging strange and poorly understood features sitting on the core-mantle boundary of the Earth known as ultra-low velocity zones (ULVZs). ULVZs are small in size, 100s by 10s km, but show huge reductions in seismic wave speed compared to the rest of the mantle (10-50%). We currently have very little understanding about what these features are or what effect they have on the large scale convective mantle processes. My current work looks at developing new seismic imaging techniques to better map out the detailed shape and characteristics of ULVZs, with the aim of identifying their underlying cause.

Jenny Judge

Lecturer in Philosophy of Mind and Cognitive Science, The University of Melbourne
I’m a Lecturer (i.e. assistant professor) in philosophy.

I hold a PhD in philosophy from New York University and a PhD in music from the University of Cambridge.

My research explores the place of music, and musical experience, in human mentality at large. I'm currently developing a novel theory of musical meaning, according to which a piece of expressive music is a moving picture of feeling. On this view, a piece of expressive music is as good a candidate as a picture for having representational content -- and the widespread assumption that music lacks representational content is therefore misplaced. I'm working on a series of papers wherein I defend this 'representational' view of musical expression against objections, and explore its potential for explaining the communicative and social significance of music.

In addition to my work on music, I also write about the impact of digital technology on our encounters with value: in particular, the moral value of others and the aesthetic value of artworks. I'm particularly interested in mapping the different kinds of attention involved in moral and aesthetic experiences, and how these forms of attention are being directed and shaped by today's Internet.

I am an active musician, and I contribute essays to the program books at both Carnegie Hall and the San Francisco Symphony.
