Lewis Ingram

Lecturer in Physiotherapy, University of South Australia
I am a physiotherapist, strength & conditioning coach, lecturer, and a competitive distance runner. Despite publishing research pertaining to the cervical spine, my true passion lies within the assessment and treatment of overuse injuries in endurance athletes. As a distance runner, I am ideally positioned to understand both the physical demands and competitive mindset amongst my fellow runners, of all shapes and sizes. Through combining my current research in human movement with my passion for running, I am able to offer a greater insight into identifying and fixing the underlying cause(s) of injury, rather than simply treating the symptoms. This is the essence of successfully managing running-related injuries.

Lewis Kellett

Doctoral Researcher in Cinema, Sheffield Hallam University
My doctoral research focuses on the representation and construction of youth in 21st-century British social realist cinema. Many realist films in the last twenty years have youth as a significant theme in their narrative. Through textual analysis and selected case studies, such as Sweet Sixteen (2002), This is England (2006), Fish Tank (2009), My Selfish Giant (2013) and more recently Rocks (2020), I analyse concepts of identity, class, gender and race. I consider my study of youth in British social realist cinema an important opening to wider issues about societal understanding of young people and the ‘specific moment’ in their life trajectory. The films bring up through the characters’ voice these ‘specific moments’ and challenge preconceived ideas about youth.

I have a long-standing personal interest in this topic that combines my previous studies, my passion for British cinema, and my experience of working with young people across different sectors of education. Social Realism is a genre that is known for its ability to frame and position its characters in the cultural and political context from which they stem. This research will add to the literature on how youth is constructed and represented in 21st century British social realism and provide an insight into how films in the British realism mode of filmmaking produce alternative articulations of youth.

Li Li (李黎) Li Li (李黎)

Professor of Civil and Environmental Engineering, Penn State
My group works at the interface of hydrology, biogeochemistry, and environmental engineering. In particular, we are interested in understanding reactive transport processes where flow, transport, and biogeochemical reactions interact in natural systems. These processes dictate water quality and determine how natural systems respond to changing climate and human perturbations. We are particularly interested in understanding general principles that have prediction power across diverse climate and earth system conditions. We have worked on multiple topics at the nexus of water, environment, and energy, including, for example, water and biogeochemical cycling, contaminant reactive transport and bioremediation, and geological carbon sequestration, from as small as pore scale to as large as river basins.

Liam Temple

Capuchin Fellow in the History of Catholicism, Durham University
I am the Capuchin Fellow in the History of Catholicism at the Centre for Catholic Studies. Before this role I had taught at Durham, Northumbria and Sunderland as an Associate Lecturer and had also developed my skills in community engagement and digital design in roles outside of academia.

I am a Fellow of the Royal Historical Society and an Associate Fellow of the Higher Education Academy. I also currently serve on the executive committee of the Catholic Record Society. Between 2019 and 2023 I served on the committee for The History of Women Religious of Britain and Ireland (H-WRBI).

I am interested broadly in the history of religion, and in my current role I research the largely unexplored history of the Capuchin Franciscans, focusing especially on their presence in Britain from the start of the seventeenth century to the present day. This includes their presence as missionaries in the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries, as well as their history as a fully-fledged province from the 1870s onwards. This has evolved into wider interests in the history of Franciscanism, the history of the Catholic religious orders, and the history of the Catholic Reformation. I am currently working on two book length projects on the early modern Capuchins and the history of the modern Capuchin province in Britain respectively.

Much of my current work has been undertaken in partnership with the Capuchin Franciscans of Great Britain. As a result, I am also interested in the ways in which religious groups and secular historians can work together on projects, and the community engagement and impact potential that can result from such partnerships.

My PhD research explored mysticism and mystical experience in both Catholic and Protestant groups in early modern England. It has focused on examples of how mysticism encouraged conversation and spiritual collaboration across confessional boundaries in the period. This research culminated in my first monograph which was published with Boydell and Brewer in 2019. Reviewers have described the work as ‘a ground-breaking study’ (Journal of Ecclesiastical History), as ‘impressive for … its mastery of historical scholarship’ (Seventeenth-Century News), and as ‘well-written and lucidly argued’ (British Catholic History).

I have recently co-edited volume 2 of The Oxford History of British and Irish Catholicism with Professor John Morrill. I have also published articles in Church History, Reformation and Renaissance Review, British Catholic History, and Women’s Writing

I have forthcoming entries on mysticism in Portuguese for the Dicionário Global de Espiritualidade e Mística, and a forthcoming chapter on Capuchins for a collection entitled Storia dell’Ordine dei Frati Minori Cappuccini (1528-2028) to be published in Italian and English. I have also recently worked with Cardinal Raniero Cantalamessa, Preacher to the Papal Household, on the English edition of his papal sermons, to be published in 2024 as Faith, Hope, and Charity.

Liam Cole Young

Associate Professor of Communication and Media Studies, Carleton University
Liam Cole Young is a media theorist who studies how technical histories of data, information, and infrastructure intersect with cultural histories of music, film, sports, and administration.

He researches and teaches across a range of topics and periods—from early modern double-entry bookkeeping and state bureaucracies to 20th century pop music and box office charts; from logistical media of ports, shipping containers, and barcodes to the history and rise of sports gambling; from Y2K and the first dotcom crash to the cod fisheries and fur trade of the 17th and 18th centuries; from financialization and blockchain bro culture to common salt and human hands as media of culture. In each case, I am interested primarily in questions of epistemology (how we know about these things) and infrastructure (how they are built into and operate in the world).

His first book, List Cultures: Knowledge and Poetics from Mesopotamia to BuzzFeed (Amsterdam University Press, 2017; Open Access) explored such themes by tracing the list as a cultural technique of administration and imagination. His current book project is on the history of salt and positions sodium chloride as a medium of culture and civilization. He is also developing a long-term project on sports gambling, datafication, and financialization.
