Christina Grozinger

Professor of Entomology and Director, Center for Pollinator Research, Penn State
Bees are critical pollinators in natural and agricultural landscapes, and key model systems for the study of social behavior. Grozinger's research group examines the mechanisms underlying social behavior and health in honey bees and related species. Her studies on social behavior seek to elucidate the proximate and ultimate mechanisms mediating cooperation and conflict in insect societies. Her studies on pollinator health evaluate the impacts of biotic and abiotic stressors at the molecular, physiological and behavioral level, and examine how bees’ resilience to these stressors can be bolstered by management practices and environmental contexts, particularly by improved nutrition.

To help beekeepers, growers, land managers and members of the public better assess and mitigate the stressors that their managed and wild bee populations experience, Grozinger works with the Beescape team to develop models and decision support tools to evaluate landscape conditions and predict bee health at local scales (see beescape.org).

The Grozinger Lab group is highly collaborative and interdisciplinary, with individuals from multiple programs and perspectives.

Christina Stringer

Associate Professor, Business School, University of Auckland, Waipapa Taumata Rau
Christina is an Associate Professor in the Department of Management and International Business.

In 2008, she undertook a project for New Zealand’s Ministry of Fisheries (now Ministry of Primary Industries) which looked at the extent that New Zealand caught fish was being processed in China and exported to key markets. This project led in 2010, to Christina and colleagues investigating the use of forced labour on board New Zealand foreign chartered fishing vessels. This research, in turn, led to a Ministerial Inquiry, a major shift in government policy, and the enactment of a law requiring all foreign charter vessels to be reflagged to New Zealand by 1 May 2016.

In 2012, Christina and her two co-researchers (Dr Glenn Simmons and Professor Hugh Whittaker) received the Dean's Award: a special award recognising the impact of research concerned with human rights issues on-board foreign charter vessels fishing in New Zealand's waters. In 2017, the fisheries team (Dr Glenn Simmons, Professor Hugh Whittaker, Associate Professor Christina Stringer, Associate Professor Manuka Henare and Professor Nigel Haworth) received a Research Excellence Award for Strategic Impact in Research.

This research, in turn, led to research undertaken on behalf of the Human Trafficking Research Coalition (comprising Stand Against Slavery, Hagar New Zealand, Préscha Initiative, ECPAT NZ) and the release of the ‘Worker Exploitation in New Zealand: A Troubling Landscape’ report in 2016.

Most recently in 2019, Christina completed research with Professor Francis Collins (University of Waikato) into the exploitation of temporary migrant workers in New Zealand, and with Professor Snejina Michailova research into exploitation in the jurisdictions New Zealand compares itself to (Australia, Canada and the United Kingdom). This research fed into the extensive review undertaken by New Zealand’s Ministry of Business, Innovation and Employment (MBIE), into migrant worker exploitation in New Zealand.

Christina Wilkins

Lecturer in Film and Creative Writing, University of Birmingham
I am researcher in contemporary film, television and literature with a specialism in adaptations and mental health. I am also a poetry editor for a small press. My most recent book looks at character, the body, and adaptation was released in 2022. I am currently working on a book about male mental illness in contemporary culture.

My primary research area is adaptations. I have published various chapters related to this field, regularly participate in the AAS conferences (and am on the board of trustees), have established the BAFTSS Adaptation group, and have recently released a book in this area. This book, Embodying Adaptation: Character and the Body examines the connection between character and the body, and the hierarchies inherent within this relationship. It seeks to find a new approach to adaptations that is framed by the body and its importance in our increasingly intangible society. It was published through Palgrave in 2022 as part of the Adaptations and Visual Culture series. My other research interests include mental health, identity, memory, and queer studies. This is reflected in the chapters I have published on these topics. Another strand of my research is male mental health and suicide in contemporary culture, which will be the focus of my next monograph.

Christina Elizabeth Dando

Professor of Geography, University of Nebraska Omaha
My specialties include the various intersections of landscape (especially the Great Plains), media, and gender. I have published numerous articles on the Great Plains and its perception by humans (historically, also coverage by the media of the pipeline battles). I have worked on women's use of maps for their social activism during the Progressive Era (such as on the "suffrage map" used by suffragists as a propaganda tool during the suffrage movement) and I have published a book on the subject (Routledge).

I am currently a partner in the Omaha Spatial Justice Project which is examining the history of discriminatory housing practices (restrictive covenants, redlining, neighborhood erasure in the name of urban renewal) in Omaha Nebraska. This project is just beginning but I believe it has the most potential for articles of interest to The Conversation.

Christine Morris

Professor in Classics, Trinity College Dublin
I studied Classics at Churchill College Cambridge, followed by a Ph.D. at University College London. I worked for the British School at Athens (at Knossos) and as research assistant to Colin Renfrew before coming to Trinity in 1994. I am the Trinity representative on the Managing Committee of the Irish Institute of the Hellenic Studies at Athens, and co-edited the Institute's first publication, The Lure of Greece (2007).

Professor and Head, Department of Religious Studies, University of Tennessee
Tina Shepardson studies the history of early Christianity, particularly the Mediterranean world in the period of late antiquity. She is the author of two books: _Controlling Contested Places: Fourth-Century Antioch and the Spatial Politics of Religious Controversy_, which demonstrates the ways in which contests over local places shaped the development of religious orthodoxy and orthopraxy in the late Roman Empire; and _Anti-Judaism and Christian Orthodoxy: Ephrem’s Hymns in Fourth-Century Syria_, which examines Ephrem, a fourth-century church leader from Syria, and the role his sharp anti-Jewish language played in an intra-Christian theological struggle. She is also the co-editor of two other volumes: _Invitation to Syriac Christianity: An Anthology_, and _Dealing with Difference: Christian Patters of Response to Religious Rivalry in Late Antiquity and Beyond_. She is currently finishing a project on early Syrian Orthodox Christianity, and the political and theological conflicts that consumed the eastern Mediterranean during the fifth and sixth centuries. In teaching about the history of early Christianity, she demonstrates the effects that early Christian arguments continue to have in the modern world, as well as the rich diversity of early Christian history. She is the winner of a 2016-2017 NEH Fellowship, a 2009-2010 ACLS Fellowship, a 2008 NEH Summer Stipend, and a 2008 Franklin Research Grant from the American Philosophical Society.
