Sarah Woodruff
Professor, Director of the Community Health, Enviornment, and Wellness Lab, University of Windsor
I am a multidisciplinary researcher who strives to advance the health and wellness among Canadian children and adolescents. More specifically, I am a community-based researcher who investigates the environmental influences (e.g., family, peers, school, media) on nutrition, physical activity, body image, and other health outcomes. Much of my research is done in partnership with various public health units, the Bulimia and Anorexia Nervosa Association (BANA), Leadership Advancement for Women and Sport (LAWS), and the Ontario Student Nutrition Program.

Sarah A. Spitzer
Research Fellow in Climate and Space Sciences and Engineering, University of Michigan
I received a Ph.D. in space science and engineering from the University of Michigan with a focus on Heliophysics in situ observations, especially related to heliospheric and interstellar interactions. I analyzed pickup ion data from ACE/SWICS to track the evolution of the interstellar wind through the heliosphere over a complete solar cycle and worked on the characterization for the geometric factor under laboratory conditions of the Heavy Ion Sensor onboard Solar Orbiter (SO-HIS). During my postdoctoral research, I have been continuing my research on pickup ion measurements and extending the SO-HIS instrument characterization to include a spaceflight voltage analysis as well as a characterization of the detector efficiencies and elevation acceptance ranges.
I additionally hold master's degrees in space science and engineering as well as electrical and computer engineering with a focus in robotics and embedded systems and graduate certificates in plasma science and engineering and graduate teaching. I have a bachelor's degree in computer engineering with minors in multidisciplinary design in engineering and in Near Eastern studies.

Sarah-Sophie Weil
PhD candidate, Swansea University
I am interested in large-scale biogeographic patterns and the underlying mechanisms and processes. Species' dispersal (natural dispersal, invasions and range shifts) is a particular favourite of mine, especially in the context of land-use and climate changes. It is one of the proccesses at the origin of biodiversity as it can lead to speciation, and it determines where we can find which species today. I completed a joint PhD programme between Swansea University (Wales, UK) and Université Grenoble Alpes (France), and have now moved to Germany for a postdoc position.

Sarahleigh Castelyn
Reader and Associate Professor in Performing Arts, University of East London
I am an educator, researcher, performer, choreographer and writer: a dance nerd. My dance research focuses on race, gender, sexuality, and nation in apartheid and post-apartheid South Africa, the politics of hybridity, and the use of practice as a research methodology.
I have performed in and choreographed dance works, for example at JOMBA! Contemporary Dance Festival (South Africa) and The Playhouse (South Africa). I serve on a number of editorial and organisation boards, such as The South African Dance Journal and HOTFOOT.
I have published research on dance and South Africa, for instance in Viral Dramaturgies (2018) and Narratives in Black British Dance (2018), and in journals such as The African Performance Review, Dance Theatre Journal, Animated, African Performance Review, and The South African Theatre Journal.
I am interested in researching and documenting dance and performance practices that are often marginalised by the global north. I am currently working on a monograph on contemporary dance in South Africa during the early periods after the end of the apartheid regime.
My book aims to explore when and how, and to what effect, the body in South African contemporary dance post-apartheid is a toyi-toying body. Toyi-Toying is a South African dance motif that occurs at protests and is a powerful piece of choreography that creates a charged atmosphere.
My research makes apparent the relationship between political action and the dancing body and shows how South African contemporary dance choreographers makes visible the complex, fluid, multiple, and contradictory nature of South African identity politics.
My story: I was born in Pietermaritzburg, South Africa in the 1970s, and was sent to ballet at the age of four to cure my duck walk; I had teaspoons thrown at me by my ballet teacher because I wouldn't stop growing; I developed a love for Brenda Fassie and township jive thanks to the wise gogo who cared for me when my mom was working at the hospital; I landed up at the University of KwaZulu-Natal in the 1990s; during the most important election in South African history, I loved dancing the toyi-toyi up and down the voting lines with my fellow South Africans.
I learnt from Paul Datlen that everything was dance, including throwing yourself onto the floor, which I had no problem with, except the getting up. From Lliane Loots, I learnt that not only was everything dance, but dance was political, and dancing bodies are thinking bodies. I danced for Flatfoot when it was 'unofficial', and I takes pride in saying that I remember dancing on the top of a construction site with fibreglass wings on for a photo shoot. I likes to think that the photo in the local Sunday Paper made me famous when I was clubbing in Point Road. During this time, I made other dancers dance with chickens and got really irritated that there weren't enough books about dance in South Africa on the library bookshelves.
In 2001, I left the sunny shores of the East Coast to go to London and ended up completing a practice-based doctoral research project supervised by Jen Harvie at Queen Mary, University of London, which was funded by the United Kingdom's Arts and Humanities and Research Council.
Today, I am a practice-based researcher based at the University of East London but I have one foot in the United Kingdom and one in South Africa - I do have big feet. I love working with my students at UEL and I love working with the student dancers in UKZN (University of KwaZulu-Natal), such as with the Flatfoot Dance Training Company, or even bringing students from UEL together with students from UKZN on Khuluma – the dance writing residency project that is part of JOMBA! Contemporary Dance Festival.
I invite you to join the Dance Revolution: Dance Nerds Unite!

I am a senior Research Associate in the Particle Physics group at the University of Liverpool. My research is focused on Muon Physics. In particular, I work on resolving the tension between the experimental and theoretical determinations of the muon anomalous magnetic moment. I have been working on the Fermilab muon g-2 experiment since 2014.

During my time working on g-2 I have been involved with many different aspects of the operations and analysis of the experiment. In my current role as magnetic field Analysis Coordinator, I analyze data from multiple systems to make an ultra-precise measurement of the muon-weighted magnetic field, which is one of the two main quantities required to determine the value of the muon anomalous magnetic moment. In 2022, I joined the University of Liverpool once again, to continue my work on g-2 as well as other muon experiments.
