Lisa H. Sideris
Professor of Environmental Studies, Affiliate Faculty in Religious Studies, University of California, Santa Barbara
I am interested in the value and ethical significance of natural processes. My areas of research include environmental ethics, and the science-religion interface. Much of my research focuses on conflict and compatibility between scientific and religious interpretations of nature and natural processes. My first book Environmental Ethics, Ecological Theology, and Natural Selection (Columbia, 2003) critiques the tendency of Christian environmental ethics, or “ecological theology,” to misconstrue or ignore Darwinian theory, and examines the problems this creates for developing a realistic ethic toward nature and animals.
More recent research has focused on Rachel Carson, whose book Silent Spring (1962) arguably marks the beginning of the environmental movement in America and abroad. I co-edited (with philosopher and nature writer Kathleen Dean Moore) a volume of interdisciplinary essays on Carson's life and work, titled Rachel Carson: Legacy and Challenge (SUNY, 2008).
My current research centers on the role of wonder and enchantment in (and with) science, nature, and religion, and the variety of ways in which scientific narratives, particularly those involving evolution and the Anthropocene, are being "re-enchanted" and recast as mythopoeic stories with moral content. My most recent book, Consecrating Science: Wonder, Knowledge, and the Natural World (2017) is the product of that research. I also write about the spiritual and ethical dimensions of emerging technologies of the Anthropocene, like de-extinction and other high-tech interventions in nature.
I currently serve as President of the International Society for the Study of Religion, Nature, and Culture (ISSRNC).

Liz Gloyn
Reader in Latin Language & Literature, Royal Holloway University of London
My research focuses on the intersections between Latin literature, ancient philosophy and gender studies. I also have a strong specialism in classical reception.
My core research is on Seneca the younger and his approach to Stoicism and the family. As a result, I'm interested in his works in general and the social history that provides the context for understanding them, as well as the way that he reshapes Stoicism for Roman culture. In the broader field of Latin literature, I'm interested in innovative approaches to familiar texts, particularly from a feminist perspective or from an angle that incorporates social history and the family.
One half of my classical reception interests focused on classics in popular culture, with a particular interest in film and children's literature. My book on the reception of classical monsters in popular culture was published by Bloomsbury Academic in 2019. The other half is interested in the history of women and classics, in particular how women became professional academic classicists in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries.
As well as academic journal articles and books, I have written for publications with a wider public audience including Times Higher Education, History Today and Strange Horizons. I have media experience working with television, documentary film, radio and newspapers.

Liz Wilson
Professor of Comparative Religion, Miami University
Liz Wilson is Professor of Comparative Religion at Miami University of Ohio. She earned her doctorate at the University of Chicago Divinity School, specializing in the History of Religions. Her focus is on the religious history of pre-modern South Asia. Her primary training is in Buddhism, especially Gupta-era narrative literatures of pre-modern India. Her secondary training is in Jainism, Hinduism, Islam, and Sikhism, both in South Asia and in diasporic contexts in North America. Wilson’s primary analytical lenses are gender, sexuality, gerontology, and family-formation.
Wilson’s first book _Charming Cadavers: Horrific Figurations of the Feminine in Indian Buddhist Hagiographic Literature_ (University of Chicago Press, 1996) broke new ground in applying a gender studies lens to pre-modern Buddhist literature and practice in the Indian subcontinent.
The question of how renunciant Buddhists relate to those outside the monastery has been a central preoccupation for Wilson. From this foundation of specialized research, she engages in comparative religious studies, writing about styles of celibacy in different religious and secular communities. She has published on how celibacy contributes to family formation and community building in Buddhist, Christian, and other religious communities that laud the benefits of celibacy and exalt the spiritual work of celibate people. She has delineated instances that bear up the assumption that celibate people have more time to give to those outside their biological families and hence have the potential to build community well. She has explored controversial topics such as the status of out lesbians who choose to be celibate in line with what they regard as central teachings of the Roman Catholic church and the question of whether sexual pleasure is a fundamental human right, as advocated by some in the on-line incel (involuntary celibate) community.
Wilson has written on Buddhist modalities of death and dying. She's compared death rituals across a range of South Asian religions. South Asian vampires are a special interest, especially the undead of the Kathmandu Valley of Nepal.
Recent work builds on research in South India among Hindus, Christians, and Muslims in Kerala. In this work, Wilson explores questions about asceticism, gender segregation, and male identity formation in a popular South Indian pilgrimage that has historically prohibited reproductive age women. Wilson’s published essays on the topic cover the stand-off between conservative Hindu nationalists and groups advocating for the right of reproductive age women. She’s currently writing an essay that speculates about the extent to which transwomen are already making the pilgrimage and whether other gender queer people may also be allowed to visit the temple that is the culmination of the pilgrimage experience.

Lizzie Wright
Postgraduate Researcher in the School of English, University of Leeds
I am a current postgraduate researcher in the School of English at the University of Leeds. My thesis, entitled 'The ‘good for her’ genre and violent revenge in American feminist film (2014-2022)', focuses on contemporary film and television narratives of violent revenge committed by women in unstable states of mind. I examine my texts as a response to the rising misogynist terrorism perpetuated by internet-based incels, which saw an increase from 2019 onwards in the time of the COVID-19 pandemic.
For my Masters by Research in English Literature, I undertook a 30,000 word dissertation titled 'Disability and Disfigurement in Twenty-First Century Comic-Book Films', exploring metaphorical and literal disability in superhero films. I posited that the origin stories of super-abled people serve the same purpose as the account of how the disabled person ‘became’ disabled; creating demand for a story where non-disabled people can explore and exploit extraordinary bodies.

Her doctoral research, 'Productions of Ignorance and Co-Productions of Resistance: Britain's Hostile Environment', was funded by Cardiff Law School Scholarship. This research focuses on contemporary UK immigration laws, known as the hostile environment, colonial histories of immigration laws and creative resistances to them. Approaches to this research include doctrinal and historical with critical property and critical race theory to scrutinise immigration laws as technologies of mobility, categorisation and segregation of people. Grassroots and co-productions of resistance to these processes were detailed through the case study of The Hostile Environment Walking Tour (2018), a participatory art project produced by Lizzy as part of the Who Are We? Project, a three-year project at the Tate Exchange.
