Associate Professor of Social Justice & Peace Studies, Western University I am Associate Professor in the Social Justice and Peace Studies Department at King’s University College at Western University (territory of the Anishinaabek, Haudenosaunee, Lūnaapéewak and Attawandaron). My research interests are interdisciplinary, crisscrossing contemporary political theory, feminist theory, political economy, philosophy, and sociology. Since the passing of my mentor, Erik Olin Wright, I have taken over as Coordinator of the Real Utopias Project. My latest book is "Against Inequality: The Practical and Ethical Case for Abolishing the Superrich" published by Oxford University Press in April 2023.
Associate Professor, Sport Management, University of Windsor Dr. Eddy is currently an Associate Professor of Sport Management, having been at the University of Windsor since 2017. Previously, he was an Assistant Professor of Sport Management at the University of Arkansas, as well as St. John's University in Queens, New York. Dr. Eddy's research centres around Sport Marketing and Sport Consumer Behaviour, much of which is in the context of Sport Sponsorship. Dr. Eddy's research can be found here: https://bit.ly/3HVB60k
Professor of physics, KU Leuven I am a cosmologist and was for many years a close collaborator of the late Stephen Hawking. I received my doctorate from the University of Cambridge and am currently professor of theoretical physics at the University of Leuven, where I study the quantum nature of the Big Bang.
Tandeep Sidhu is a PhD Candidate in the Sociology and Legal Studies department at the University of Waterloo. His research interest broadly examines the intersections between race and policing. Tandeep's dissertation research examines the qualitative experiences of individuals who have come in contact with police tactical units and other militarized policing elements. Tandeep's research is supported by the Social Sciences and Humanities Research Council.
University Professor, Bergles Professor of Thermal Science, and Director of the Center for Multiphase Flow Research and Education, Iowa State University Ted Heindel is an ISU University Professor, the Bergles Professor of Thermal Science in the Department of Mechanical Engineering, and the Director of the Center for Multiphase Flow Research and Education (CoMFRE); he also holds a courtesy professor appointment in the Department of Chemical and Biological Engineering. He directs the Experimental Multiphase Flow Laboratory at ISU, which houses a unique instrument for performing X-ray visualization studies of large-scale complex fluid flows. His research currently focuses on multiphase flow hydrodynamics (e.g., mixing in gas-liquid, gas-solid, and gas-liquid-solid flows), multiphase flow visualization and characterization using X-ray imaging technology, and particle-particle mixing. This work has applications in petroleum-based and bio-based chemical and fuel processing, energy generation, food processing, agricultural waste management, pharmaceutical manufacturing, and wastewater treatment. Dr. Heindel’s research program has been funded by over 60 projects supported through the NSF, ONR, USDA, DOE, the State of Iowa, and industrial partners. He has co-authored one book and published over 100 peer-reviewed journal papers and over 280 conference papers, abstracts, and technical reports. Dr. Heindel currently directs the ISU Center for Multiphase Flow Research and Education (CoMFRE). This is a collection of over 25 ISU faculty with interests in multiphase flows. CoMFRE also has 5 member companies whose dues support research that they direct. Dr. Heindel is co-founder and co-organizer of the International Journal of Multiphase Flow Spotlight Virtual Seminar Series, which organizes 6 international seminars each semester. He also has an appointment as an associate editor of the International Journal of Multiphase Flow.
Senior Lecturer in Process and Energy Engineering, University of Waikato I am an active researcher and Assistant Director of the Ahuora Centre for Smart Energy Systems with a PhD in Engineering from the University of Waikato, a Docent degree from Brno University of Technology (Czechia), a Chartered Engineer and Member of the Institute of Chemical Engineers in the UK, and a Member of Engineering New Zealand. My research mission is to create disruptive energy technology and integrated systems to accelerate the decarbonisation of New Zealand’s energy sector. I also relish the privilege to teach and mentor the next generation of chemical, process, mechanical, and energy engineers. Our engineering students have amazing potential, and I enjoy challenging them to have the audacity to become the engineering leaders of the future.
