Or Dagan
Assistant Professor of Clinical Psychology, Long Island University Post
I am a professor of clinical psychology at Long Island University, where I conduct Attachment research, teach doctoral-level seminars (including psychotherapy interventions and developmental psychopathology), and supervise doctoral students. I am also a New York State licensed clinical psychologist. I use my educational, research and practice platforms to promote sensitive communication between people, which I believe stands at the heart of well-being.
As a researcher, I study how early relationships with our parents influence our mental and physical health, and the quality of our close relationships later in life. I do so by investigating how individuals across the lifespan behave with their parents at times of distress, and how they remember and talk about these experiences years later. As a clinical psychologist, I apply an attachment-informed framework to therapy, which I keep developing through my research to scaffold my understanding of the difficulties clients experience.
I am thankful for being in a unique position to both inform my clinical practice with cutting-edge research findings, and inform my research endeavors with extensive hands-on clinical experience I gain from interacting with patients.

Finalicé mi licenciatura de Ciencias Físicas en junio de 1999 (Universidad de Granada) e
inicié mis estudios de doctorado bajo el programa "Química" de la Universidad de Murcia. Este programa interdisciplinar incluía, entre otros, el curso "Técnicas numéricas y de simulación" impartida por el catedrático Miguel Ortuño, el cual me propuso una línea de investigación sobre el tiempo túnel cuántico para electrones y fotones.
Utilizando métodos numéricos, logramos calcular el tiempo de tránsito de pulsos de distintas anchuras a través de distintos potenciales mediante el operador cuántico "tempus". Estos resultados constituyeron la base de mi tesis doctoral "Efectos de tiempo finito en el tiempo túnel para electrones y fotones" la cual defendí en 2007 con la calificación de "Apto cum laude por unanimidad". Publicamos nuestros resultados en la revista "Physical Review A" y "Physical Status Solidi".
Posteriormente, accedí a un puesto de profesor asociado en el área de Óptica en el laboratorio del catedrático Pablo Artal. Llevo impartiendo asignaturas de los grados de Física y Optometría durante 9 cursos académicos.
He desarrollado distintas líneas de investigación teóricas y experimentales en el campo de la Óptica a lo largo de mi carrera investigadora, correspondiendo a las siguientes temáticas:
- simulación de estructuras dieléctricas periódicas para generar "luz lenta" (reducción considerable de la velocidad de la luz para aplicaciones tecnológicas).
- modelado teórico de la intensidad de segundo armónico generada por fibras de colágeno corneales.
- estudio numérico de la longitud de localización en estructuras unidimensionales magnetoópticas.
- optimización numérica de multicapas periódicas dieléctricas para uso en tecnologías fotónicas.
- diseño teórico de un reflector dieléctrico omnidireccional en el rango del infrarrojo cercano.
- estudio teórico sobre agujeros negros primordiales y su relación con los estallidos de rayos gamma térmicos.

Owen D. Thomas
Lecturer in Politics and International Relations, University of Exeter
My primary research interests lie in International Relations, British Foreign Policy and Security.
My current research examines the work of British public inquiries into issues of security and foreign policy. Briefly put, a public inquiry is an exercise in social science. It explains the occurrence of social phenomena. Social scientists are aware that their methodological commitments are productive. Methods and methodology ‘make social worlds’ by framing an explanation in terms of specific understandings of causation, structure and agency, and political responsibility. Through a range of qualitative methods this pioneering research explains how inquiries conduct their investigations, shaping contemporary policy debates and public discourse on security and strategy.
Funded by a highly competitive ESRC 1+3 Studentship, I completed my doctoral research in 2014, which examined the relationship between publicity, secrecy and security through the Iraq public inquiries. From 2003 Britain conducted several public inquiries, each obstructed by official secrecy justified on the grounds of national security. This led to an apparent dilemma whereby a liberal ideal of publicity was balanced against security. I rejected this balance. Instead I showed how publicity and official secrecy are both tools of security, and that the inquiries are a site of contestation between them. This research, grounded in a range of qualitative methodologies, showed how attempts to seek either publicity or secrecy constitute security practices. The inquiries and the British case for war were united by the same security practice, thus a resistance to government secrecy in the name of publicity reinforces rather than rejects the basis of liberal war.
My research has also generated important social and policy impact. I have been invited to speak on my research at the European Parliament, the Houses of Parliament, and on BBC radio.
Through my research activities I have developed a successful record of external funding, including awards from the British International Studies Association, the ESRC Festival of Social Science and an ESRC Overseas Institutional Visit award for a Visiting Scholar position at the New School for Social Research
