Senior Lecturer in Defence Studies, Massey University I teach defence studies and war and society in the Centre for Defence and Security Studies, Massey University, New Zealand. My research interests traverse historical and contemporary military operations and air power, and the connectedness between armed forces and society. My education includes a Bachelor of Arts (Honours) in History from the University of New England, Australia, a PhD in History from the University of New South Wales, and both a Postgraduate Diploma in Museum Studies and a Postgraduate Certificate in Tertiary Teaching and Learning from Massey University.
Professor of Neuroscience, UMass Chan Medical School We study the molecular biology of mRNA translational control by cytoplasmic polyadenylation and how this process influences interesting biological phenomena including early animal development, cellular senescence/growth control, neuron synaptic plasticity, learning, and memory, and neurologic disease.
Archaeological Research Assistant, University of Bradford I am a postdoctoral researcher on the European Research Council funded Europe's Lost Frontiers project, working with Prof. Vince Gaffney and colleagues on the archaeological aspects of a project aimed at discovering more about the lost, submerged prehistoric landscape of Doggerland - now the base of the North Sea. My main research focus is on the investigation of archaeological materials and cultural heritage that lay under water. In particular, my interests lie in the landscapes as they evolved from the final Pleistocene into the mid-late Holocene. These landscapes would have certainly been of immense importance to prehistoric peoples, and yet they remain one of the most poorly understood places from our past. Many of archaeology's biggest questions depend upon data that lies upon the seabed, and the ELF project leads the way in exploring their archaeological potential. Other Research Interests: In addition to my role as a Mesolithic/Neolithic specialist, I have broad array of interests pertaining to many aspects of hunter-gatherer society and hominin evolution. These include, means of cultural adaptation to environmental variation, subsistence strategies, migration events, mid-later period hominin evolution and cognitive development, ethnoarchaeology, the transition to farming, and the history of prehistory, among other topics.
Senior Research Officer, Murdoch Children's Research Institute Dr Jane Tuckerman is a Senior Research Officer at the Murdoch Children’s Research Institute where she works with the Vaccine Uptake group, SAEFVIC (Surveillance of Adverse Events Following Vaccination in the Community) and respiratory groups. Jane holds honorary appointments with The University of Melbourne and the Royal Children’s Hospital. Jane is motivated by research translated into health system and hospital policy changes, in particular supporting vaccine service delivery for prioritised and hard-to reach populations most impacted by health policy. Jane completed a PhD on barriers to influenza vaccination in children medically at-risk and leads a program of research around prioritised and hard-to reach populations and vaccine service delivery. In her research with SAEFVIC, Jane contributes to several clinical studies related to infectious diseases epidemiology including respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) and COVID-19.
