Professeur d'écologie forestière, Université du Québec en Abitibi-Témiscamingue (UQAT)
Mes expertises portent sur l'aménagement forestier durable et la sylviculture face aux changements climatiques. Concrètement, ma recherche vise à développer des traitements de coupes expérimentales (coupes partielles) et à évaluer leurs effets sur la croissance, la régénération, la mortalité (chablis) et la biodiversité. De plus, je m'intéresse à la modélisation de forêts complexes à l'échelle du paysage (Landis-II), ainsi qu'à l'effet des perturbations naturelles (épidémies d'insectes, chablis, broutement, le castor), à la structure et à la dynamique forestière à multiples échelles spatio-temporelles en utilisant des approches dendroécologiques et paleoécologiques.

Professor of Phonetics, Lund University
I investigate how the brain processes speech (neurolinguistics). I lead projects with a consolidation grant from VR and grants from KAW and MAW, using high resolution magnetic resonanance imaging (MRI) to explore to what extent speech perception can be integrated into general auditory perception. As a Wallenberg Academy Fellow and in a project from MAW, I have also lead the work of tracing how speech melody is used to predict and facilitate processing of grammatical structure. Aids have also been developed for second language learning of the speech melody-grammar association.
I have previously led a research project exploring how time-based decay of word forms in short-term memory influence sentence processing. I have also used Latent Semantic Analysis (LSA) to investigate how words’ degree of abstractness affect associations in speakers with Broca’s aphasia.

Principal Teaching Fellow, University of Warwick
My current research focuses on contemporary British politics and the political economy of the post-war British state. I maintain an interest in education policy, specifically the politics of higher education, which was the subject of my doctoral dissertation. My forthcoming monograph on the role of Anthony Crosland’s contribution to the politics of post-war British education policy begins a critique of state intervention in education within the context of a ‘moral economy’ of social fairness in the post-war period. This will be followed by a second book, The Birth of the Knowledge Economy, which interrogates the political economy of the post-war state in relation to British higher education. The two books taken together will offer a significant new interpretation of post-war British educational politics and its place in the wider life of the nation.
I have previously researched and published on a wide range of topics including the social history of the First World War, the politics of constitutional reform, contemporary education reform and the tenure in office of the coalition government between 2010 and 2015. I am currently working with Professor Matt Qvortrup (Coventry) and Professor Gillian Peele (Oxford) on a project analysing the politics of the forthcoming referendum on Britain’s membership of the European Union. I am also editing a forthcoming special section of the Political Quarterly on the role of history in the British political present.
I was born in Liverpool, where I studied for my first degree, receiving a BA in History from the University of Liverpool. An MPhil and PhD in History at Magdalene College, Cambridge followed, and I spent a year at Harvard University as Kennedy Scholar in History. I also read BA Theology at Exeter College, Oxford, specialising in the study of Islam and Catholicism. I have taught widely in universities, teaching History and Politics at both Oxford and Cambridge, Politics, Political Science and International Relations at the London School of Economics (for the Hansard Society) and in the Department of Political Science and International Studies at the University of Birmingham. I also taught education at a number of institutions, and was the founder of the Centre for Education Policy Analysis.
I worked in Westminster politics for a number of years as a speechwriter and political adviser, and I also have a background in journalism. My research draws on this diverse range of experiences; my writing of political history/contemporary political analysis is indebted both to my original training as an empirical historian and my subsequent work in politics and the media.
I have appeared in a range of broadcast media, and in May 2015 contributed election commentary to CNN and BBC local radio.

Senior Lecturer in Earth System Science, Northumbria University, Newcastle
Hi! I am a Lecturer in Earth Science and contribute to both our Geography and Geology teaching programmes. I am also Admissions tutor for all the Geography, Geology and Archaeology programmes run out of Geography, Environment and Earth Science, so please get into contact if you have any questions – no matter how small or silly!
I joined Hull as a Research Fellow, part funded by the UK Research Councils. Before then I spent two years as a postdoctoral researcher at the University of Utrecht (Netherlands). I did my PhD at the National Oceanography Centre in Southampton, subsequent to BSc and MSc degrees in Geology and Petroleum Geology at Imperial College, London.
My interests are rather broad, including past climate change, micropalaeontology, carbonate sedimentology and alkaline waste remediation. In all cases, I am interested in the processes causing change and forming products in these systems, and I like to approach them using theoretical and laboratory approaches to address problems identified in the field. Method development is therefore key to what I do, and I am particularly interested in developing physical modelling solutions to a range of geochemical problems from the fate of zinc contamination in upland streams in the UK to the growth and characteristics of carbonate deposits in the Mesozoic of the southern Atlantic.
Where I can, I bring my research into the classroom, enabling me to bring cutting-edge research into the lecture theatre. This is particularly true for my dissertation students, who can find themselves solving problems coming from anywhere from climate science, to metal pollution remediation to petroleum reservoir development. I’m also committed to teaching in the field – Geology and geography.
