Associate Professor, Graduate School of Public and International Affairs, L’Université d’Ottawa/University of Ottawa

Associate Professor, Graduate School of Public and International Affairs, L’Université d’Ottawa/University of Ottawa I am Associate Professor at the Graduate School of Public and International Affairs (University of Ottawa, Canada). My fields of interest include public policy, public administration and economics. I have a strong interest in poverty and social policy. While my research spans both developed and developing countries, my current research focuses on jurisdictions in Europe and North America. In ongoing research projects, I study the influence of Poverty Reduction Strategy processes on poverty reduction policies and poverty, the use of non-money poverty indicators for measuring poverty, and the effects of income transfers on poverty and material deprivation. I have been a visiting researcher at the Luxembourg Institute of Socio-Economic Research (LISER), the School for Public Policy & Administration at Carleton University (Ottawa), CEPS/INSTEAD (Luxembourg), the Kennedy School of Government (United States) and the Maastricht Graduate School of Governance (Netherlands). I have worked on consultancy projects for the World Bank, European Union and UNICEF on countries such as Mauritius, Congo Brazzaville and Russia. I hold a PhD in economics from Maastricht University (Netherlands).

Associate professor, Flinders University

Associate professor, Flinders University I scraped through year 12 and began a BSc at Flinders in 1987. After failing all first-year subjects except Biology I followed the path of least resistance into second and third year where I was introduced to evolution, palaeontology and the Australian biota. I studied kangaroo evolution for a PhD, then completed postdocs at the University of California, Naracoorte Caves and WA Museum before returning to Flinders in 2007. My research investigates links between patterns in Australian mammal evolution, extinction, biodiversity and environmental changes. I have spent much of the past 20 years retrieving old bones from caves or poring over the contents of museum drawers across the world.
