Isabelle Langrock

Postdoctoral researcher, Le Centre de Recherche sur les Inégalités Sociales, Sciences Po

Postdoctoral researcher, Le Centre de Recherche sur les Inégalités Sociales, Sciences Po I am currently a postdoctoral researcher at Le Centre de Recherche sur les Inégalités Sociales (The Center for Research on Social Inequalities) at Sciences Po in Paris, France. Here, I work with Dr. Jen Schradie and study the different information environments of the US and France. I received my Ph.D. from the Annenberg School for Communication at the University of Pennsylvania in May 2023. My Dissertation, “The Irony of Openness: Gender Inequality in Self-Governed Knowledge Systems” built a framework for investigating gender gaps across different forms of open knowledge production, including Wikipedia and Open Source Software. My work speaks to the inter-disciplinary domains of digital governance and organization, information environments, and social activism.

Ian Ashton

Senior Lecturer in Offshore Technology, University of Exeter

Senior Lecturer in Offshore Technology, University of Exeter Ian is a physical oceanographer, and wave analyst with expertise in wave measurement technology, satellite earth observation, air-sea gas exchange and marine renewable energy. Accurate measurements of waves and currents are critical when operating offshore and in coastal locations. Combining offshore, in-situ field measurements with satellite data and innovative analysis tools, Ians research is aimed at improving the information available about the physical oceanographic conditions to create better operational and design procedures. Ian's PhD looked into the spatial properties of ocean waves and subsequent research has covered the spatial variability of waves for marine energy, the accuracy of wave and current monitoring and detailed procedures for wave assessment. He previously worked as principal researcher for the FabTest marine energy test site situated in Falmouth Bay. This included research to develop innovative wave and current monitoring in response to requirements from developers of operational wave energy projects.

Inés Gregori Labarta

Lecturer in Creative Writing, Lancaster University

Lecturer in Creative Writing, Lancaster University I am a writer of speculative fiction especially interested in the weird, horror and genre-bending work. My research interests include the novella as a form - I am the author of two novellas, 'McTavish Manor' (Holland House, 2016) and 'Kabuki' (Dairea, 2017) although I am also a keen writer of novels and short stories. My latest novel, 'The Three Lives of Saint Ciarán' (Blackwater Press, 2024), expeirments with different genres (including magic realism, the weird and dystopia) and languages to establish cultural and literary connections between Ireland and Spain and celebrate characters that move across genders and cultures. Other research interests are multilingual and transcultural narratives, migrant narratives, queer literature, magic realism, RPGs, monstrous fiction and the gothic. I'm also keen on graphic novels - and have years of experience as freelance illustrator and cartoonist. I am also interested in podcasts - I worked as a radio journalist for a while and I have been a frelance podcast editor, writer and producer since 2014 - I was Litro's magazine podcast editor from 2020-2021 and I produced podcasts like The Writing Life and The Wandering Bard.
