Associate Professor - Animal Ecophysiology, Deakin University
I have a background in comparative physiology, specialising in metabolic and cardiovascular physiology. I have applied this background to address important fundamental and applied questions regarding the capacity of animals (primarily fishes) to withstand environmental challenges including climate change. My work has spanned temperate and tropical systems, using approaches in eco-physiology and chemical/behavioural ecology to forecast the responses of fishes to challenges like global warming, ocean acidification (elevated carbon dioxide), hypoxia (low oxygen), and fishing-related stressors. I have played a lead role in designing, developing and testing novel electronic tagging technologies for measuring physiological and behavioural parameters in free-living animals. I have been vocal about the importance of scientific integrity, and I advocate strongly for robust, transparent and replicable research practices.

Senior Lecturer in Bioinformatics, Anglia Ruskin University
Dr Hearn runs the Comparative Chronomics research group. We discover how circadian clocks work in different species by taking a comparative biology approach. The Comparative Chronomics group is based at Anglia Ruskin University and in the Department of Medical Genetics at the University of Cambridge.
Chronobiology is the study of biological time. We are interested in daily and seasonal time keeping mechanisms – circadian and photoperiodic oscillators. We utilise genomics, transcriptomics, metabolomics to make comparisons between systems.
We are especially interested in the usage of chronobiology in genomic medicine; for which we have coined the term “Chronomic Medicine”. Our goal is to investigate how chronobiology impacts human health and disease.
We are using the tools of genomic medicine to cement the idea of Chronomic Medicine – delivering mechanistic basis for the role of the circadian clock in the inheritance and phenotypes of rare disease and answering the community wide call to explore all potential aspects of circadian medicine.
Dr Hearn is a College Lecturer and Director of Studies at Newnham College, Cambridge.

Professor, Centre for Animal Science, The University of Queensland
My research interests are in molecular virology and are focused on improving viral disease control in production animals such as cattle and poultry. My group is characterising the molecular interactions between invading pathogens and the subsequent host responses with the goal of developing new vaccines and diagnostic technologies. A key component of this work includes improving the basic understanding of the molecular mechanisms that underpin and drive viral virulence (the capacity to cause disease) and pathogen evolution. We have utilised next-generation sequencing technologies to sequence the genomes of herpesviruses and adenoviruses from various species including, cattle, chickens, marsupials, horses, and crocodiles. My team is also investigating the role of virally encoded non-coding RNAS in virulence, virus replication, and disease development. The outcomes of these research activities are also being used to understand viral gene function and the development of novel vaccines to increase livestock productivity.
