Assistant Professor of Psychology, The Maria Grzegorzewska University I completed my PhD in psychology and my PhD thesis examined psychological time and cognitive functioning. During my journey I gained research experience in the Institute for Frontier Areas of Psychology and Mental Health, University of Manchester and Oxford Brookes University. My primary research interest lies in investigating psychological time in the context of individual differences and social changes. Currently, I an assistant professor at the Maria Grzegorzewska University in Warsaw and I work on the international project regarding time and digitalisation. I am committed to integrating diverse research methods for deeper insights.
PhD Candidate, Faculty of Information and Media Studies, Western University Juan Escobar-Lamanna is a Ph.D. candidate in the Faculty of Information and Media Studies at The Unviersity of Western Ontario. His dissertation focuses on analyzing videogame accessibility through a critical disability framework, considering industry preferred player identities (who games are made for) and how videogames and the conversations we have about games can be more inclusive and accessible. His other research interests include: communities created around videogames, live-streaming on Twitch.tv, and the voluntary digital labour undertaken by modders and other videogame-focused communities in relation to exploitable labour. He received his M.A. in Contemporary Art Histories: New Media from OCAD University and has a B.A. in Cinema and Media Studies from York University.
Professor of Palaeobiology, University of Leicester I received my undergraduate degree (BSc) in Geology (1994) as well as his Master degree in Geology and Paleontology (1996) from Freie Universität Berlin (Germany). In 2000 I obtained my PhD degree (Magna Cum Laude) from Christian-Albrechts-University Kiel (Germany). I have worked in four countries as postdoc and Assistant Professor before joining Leicester as Professor in 2018. I have been awarded over five million Euro in funding for research projects in the UK Germany Australia and the Netherlands committed to carrying out cutting-edge research using quantitative field and laboratory methods for sedimentological paleoenvironmental and paleoclimatological reconstructions of coral reef and island systems as well as land-ocean coupling mechanisms in the Indian Ocean region the tropical Atlantic and Southeast Asia. My research involves the geochemical study of marine biological (massive corals) and sedimentary archives from the tropical oceans as recorders of environmental and climate change over the past 300 years and during the Holocene. For most of my career I have worked on Indian Ocean coral and sediment records. This work is motivated by the need to produce reliable long-term baseline data of sea surface temperature ocean currents and the hydrological cycle over the tropical/subtropical oceans and how they shape patterns of biodiversity in our oceans and adjacent coasts. My current aspiration is to establish an international research group focussed on tropical paleoclimate research around flagship research areas where climate variability and change is of global and regional significance with the impetus on gaining more robust research output for the benefit of society. A Royal Society Wolfson Fellowship, a NERC Discovery Grant and a German DFG research grant awarded between 2018 and 2021 support my current Professorship at the University of Leicester.
