Graduate researcher PhD candidate, La Trobe University After retiring from Victoria Ambulance Service after being diagnosed with Early Onset Parkinson's Disease, I enrolled in a Bachelor of Biology at Latrobe University as a mature-age student. On completion of my degree, I began an Honours year looking at Roadkill Patterns in Melbourne's outer suburbs. After a five year break, I have returned to Latrobe to research Marsupial Microbiomes as a graduate researcher and PhD candidate. I hope the information gathered will assist wildlife carers in their important and difficult job of rearing and releasing orphaned and injured wildlife.
Assistant Professor of Earth, Atmospheric, and Planetary Sciences, Purdue University Dr. Bramson studies processes that affect the surfaces of solid bodies in our solar system. She tackles these problems using a combination of spacecraft remote sensing observations and theoretical modeling, supplemented by occasional field work at terrestrial analog sites and experimental studies. Her research on Martian mid-latitude ice is helping to shape the future of in situ resource utilization and human exploration of Mars.
Assistant Professor of Teaching in Language & Literacy Education , University of British Columbia I just began working as an Assistant Professor of Teaching with the Department of Language & Literacy Education at The University of British Columbia this year. Prior to taking on this position, I was the first Banting-funded postdoctoral fellow to conduct my research with the Faculty of Education at Simon Fraser University. I also hold two masters degrees (in English literature and literacy education), as well as a BAH in English and a Bachelor of Education. My research interests include: adolescent literacies; arts-based research; English literature education; feminist pedagogies; teacher and teacher librarian education; representations of youth in popular culture; rape culture; and young adult (YA) trauma literature. All these foci are deeply informed by my previous career as a secondary English teacher and I aim for my scholarship, which includes 39 refereed publications, to speak to many audiences.
