Matthew Tom Harrison
Associate Professor of Sustainable Agriculture, University of Tasmania
Associate Professor Matthew Harrison is an award-winning scientist based at the Tasmanian Institute of Agriculture in Launceston, Australia. Matt is internationally renowned for his work in improving the sustainability of agricultural and land-use systems through innovative economic, environmental and social solutions to demand-driven problems. His team uses systems thinking to develop skills, technologies and practices aimed at improving food production, enterprise profitability, social licence to operate and long-term agri-food sustainability. The impact of his work on carbon removals, greenhouse gas emissions, the climate crisis and food security will have enduring benefits for decades to come.
Matt is the Director of the Carbon Storage Partnership, a multi-million-dollar transdisciplinary initiative that is developing environmentally-contextualised and socially-acceptable pathways aimed at profitably progressing the entire Australia livestock sector to net-zero greenhouse gas emissions by 2030.

*Career biography*
After completing undergraduate degrees in Applied Science, Plant Science (Hons) and Civil Engineering (Hons), Matt conducted a PhD with the Australian National University while based at the Commonwealth Scientific Industrial Research Organisation (CSIRO) in Canberra, Australia.
From 2009, he conducted post-doctoral fellowships at the CSIRO in Canberra, Australia, working with various stakeholders to develop fit-for-purpose, legitimate and sustainable livestock production systems. Matt later worked at the ‘Institut Nationale de la Recherche Agronomique’ (INRA) in Montpellier, France, and during this period he spent extensive time at Pioneer Hi-Bred International in Des Moines, USA, and the University of Queensland in Brisbane, Australia.
Since completing his undergraduate degrees, Matt worked with- and was tutored by preeminent scientists in crop breeding, systems modelling, agronomy, computer-, plant- and animal-science. His post-doctoral research integrated the physics, maths and computer science from his engineering background into agricultural science. It was truly a multi-disciplinary training pathway.
Matt joined the Tasmanian Institute of Agriculture in 2012 at the Cradle Coast Campus in Burnie, Australia. In 2022, he relocated to Launceston in support of the University’s strategic plan to grow a critical mass of world-class plant scientists in the north of the State.

Étudiant la maîtrise en biologie, Université Laval
Je réalise actuellement une maîtrise en biologie à l'Université Laval, où je me penche sur la prédation du renard arctique sur les nids d'oies des neiges. À partir d'observations comportementales et d'expériences sur le terrain nous vérifions des hypothèses concernant les mécanismes influençant la force de l'interaction de prédation.
Le baccalauréat en biologie à l'Université du Québec à Montréal, m'a permis de participer durant deux étés à des études sur la faune cavicole en Abitibi. Les projets étaient surtout centrés sur le Grand pic et les utilisateurs secondaires des cavités qu'il creuse dans les arbres.

Mattias Frihammar
Associate Professor of Ethnology, Stockholm University
Reader/associate professor in ethnology with an interest in collective memory processes, difficult cultural heritage and issues at the intersection between nature and culture. Coordinate the Critical Heritage Studies Network (CHSN) at Stockholms universitet. In my thesis, I analyzed social hierarchies in (re)production of contemporary royalty in Sweden. By studying arenas where royalty was present, I showed how social authority was pruduced at the intersection between notions of exclusivity and commonness. The analysis also demonstrated the symbolic and actual importance of the material in the exercise of power, and how rituals forms social superiority.

My research focuses on the study of executive functioning, our ability to problem-solve, make decisions, and organize cognitive processes towards achieving a goal. I have a particular interest in the psychometric assessment of executive function, but most of my research focuses on clinical events or environmental variables that may modify the lifespan development of this self-regulatory capacity, such as the effects of positive life experiences ranging from sports participation and leadership-based employment to negative experiences such as brain injury (e.g., sports concussions, hypoxic/anoxic brain damage associated with synthetic drug overdose), the experience of war, and the intersections between brain injury, mental health, and addictions.
