Victoria Cooper2
Lecturer in Social Policy and Criminology, The Open University
I joined the Open University in 2015 as a Lecturer in Social Policy and Criminology.
I am the Co-director of the International Centre for Comparative Criminological Research (ICCCR), which is an interdisciplinary, cross-faculty research centre concerned with developing and supporting research projects and papers that think critically about problems of crime and justice. The ICCCR works in partnership with the Centre of Criminal Justice Studies (CCJS).
My research focuses on homelessness in relation to: housing, hostels, the criminal justice system, community punishment and geographical displacement. I am interested in how society contains and manages homeless groups through these various institutions. Currently, I am looking at the relationship between welfare reforms, the rise in evictions and homelessness. I have led on research projects commissioned by homeless charities and local authorities. Prior to working in Universities, I worked as a practitioner in housing and homelessness.

Victoria Honeyman
Lecturer in British Politics, University of Leeds
Since completing my PhD here at the University of Leeds in 2005, I have taught on a wide range of modules. My primary specialism is British Politics, with a particular specialism in British foreign policy. I have written extensively on the foreign policy objectives of both the Conservative and Labour Parties. I am also the BISA Foreign Policy Working Group Convenor. My PhD was a critical biography of the Labour MP Richard Crossman and was published in 2007.
I am module leader for the third year module British Foreign Policy and the first year British Politics module. I also teach on the second year modules Approaches to Political Science and British Central Government. I have previously run the third year Britain and the EU module and the Political Corruption module. In addition to working in POLIS I have also taught in the School of History and worked at the University of Salford for several years running their second year Labour Party History module.
Much of my current research is focused on British Foreign Policy. I have recently published an article entitled ‘Liberal Interventionism to Liberal Conservatism; the short road in foreign policy from Blair to Cameron’ in British Politics journal. I also organised a conference entitled ‘Britain and the Wider World’, held at the University of Leeds in July 2015, focusing on the importance of personal relationship in bi-lateral foreign policy. The papers from this conference will become a journal special edition.
I am also working on an article on Conservative foreign policy under Hague, Iain Duncan Smith and Michael Howard and am planning to begin writing in the near future on Britain’s development aid programme.

Victoria Wilkinson
Assistant professor in Occupational Therapy, University of Bradford
I am an assistant professor in Occupational Therapy (OT), I have been lecturing at the University of Bradford since 2016 and I have undertaken many leadership roles over the years. My PhD is investigating the occupational behaviours of professional football players to inform the development of an occupational therapy preventative intervention. My PhD is in its final stages. My PhD includes four studies; first a literature review was conducted to identify gaps in professional football research regarding wellbeing support, subsequently a cross sectional survey of 74 professional football players was completed. My third study was two case studies with elite athletes and finally I conducted a Delphi study to gain a consensus of experts’ opinions in the development of an occupational therapy preventative intervention.
The Royal College of Occupational Therapy awarded me a grant to complete a scoping study before commencing my PhD and last year I presented my findings at the RCOT annual conference.
I have (and still am) supervising occupational therapy students conducting research with different populations of emerging adulthood. This stage of development I find particularly interesting as the majority of the students I teach, and research fall into this category. Previous research I have completed was developing a placement assessment criterion, for occupational therapy students.

Vidia A. Gokool
Postdoctoral Researcher, Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory
I have spent years studying the composition and expression of human scent from its use as a forensic identifier to the underlying indications it yields about human health. I completed my doctoral studies at Florida International University where I established an instrumental method (using gas chromatography- mass spectrometry) that allows human scent samples to be associated to one another. Further development of tools like these will eventually allow us to quantify the similarity between two samples of human scent evidence and say how similar or dissimilar they are to one another.

Vikaas Sohal
Professor of Psychiatry, University of California, San Francisco
Vikaas has always been fascinated by how complex behavior emerges from systems composed of seemingly simple units or rules. He grew up in Idaho, studied Applied Mathematics as an undergrad Harvard (where he worked with Mike Hasselmo) then completed Part III of the Maths Tripos at Cambridge. He did his MD/PhD at Stanford, working in the lab of John Huguenard. Vikaas stayed at Stanford to complete residency training in psychiatry. During this time, he worked in the lab of Karl Deisseroth, and published one of the early papers using optogenetics to study cortical circuits. This study showed that feedback inhibition from parvalbulmin interneurons is sufficient to generate gamma oscillations, and that gamma oscillations can enhance the flow of information through cortical circuits. Vikaas arrived at UCSF and started the lab in 2010. He is also a board-certified psychiatrist and continues to see psychiatric outpatients. In his ample free time, Vikaas enjoys watching TV with his daughters, yelling at referees during his son's soccer games, and debating the relative merits of various take-out options with his wife.

Ville Friman
I am an evolutionary biologist interested in eco-evolutionary dynamics of species interactions in multi-trophic communities. I conduct my research by the way of experimental evolution in laboratory microcosms with various microbes including bacteria, bacteriophages and protists. I am specifically interested in understanding the interplay between environment and ecology in determining the evolution of species interactions and how rapid adaptation might affect the composition, stability and ecosystem functioning of complex microbial communities.
Studying adaptation in real time
Experimental evolution is study of evolution in real time. The method involves culturing replicate populations of study species, such as microbes, in defined laboratory environments for hundreds or thousands of generations. The experimenter will control the environmental conditions but does not directly impose the selection. Instead, selection results from the “struggle for existence” between individuals within each population, and thus, selection is natural.
I use various species of bacteria, protists and phages as my study species. These microorganisms have inherently large population sizes and short generation times that favour rapid evolution. Species can be further cryopreserved in suspended animation, which allows direct comparisons between evolved, ancestral and control populations. Many microorganisms have relatively simple and well-understood genomes, which allow both genetic manipulation and identification of the genetic targets for selection.
Current projects
Eco-evolutionary dynamics of predator-prey and host-parasite interactions in complex communities
Microbial community responses to environmental change
Cascading effects of antibiotics in multi-trophic microbial communities
Trophic interactions and the maintenance of within-species cooperation
Phage therapy in clinical and agricultural contexts
