Imogen Knox
PhD Candidate in History, University of Warwick
Imogen Knox is a current PhD researcher (2020-2024) at the University of Warwick. Her doctoral thesis is titled 'Self-destructive desires and the supernatural in early modern Britain'. This research explores the ways people articulated self-destructive desires in the context of affliction by witches, demons, and spirits, providing insight into how individuals conceptualised and negotiated suicidal ideation during a time where the act of suicide was not only criminal, but caused eternal damnation.
She recently published an article on pin-swallowing as a means of self-destruction with the Journal of Cultural and Social History: https://doi.org/10.1080/14780038.2023.2189407

Imogen Tyler
Professor of Sociology, Lancaster University
I am a social theorist and sociologist of inequalities and borders (of multiple kinds). My research is concerned with social inequalities, power, injustice and resistance. My work examines why inequalities exist, why inequalities are currently growing (for example, patterns of neoliberalism, marketization, privatisation and the erosion of democracy in the transition to postwelfare state formations), the intersections of different histories and forms of inequality (for example, gender, citizenship status, disability). My work is concerned with how inequalities are measured and classified, the ways in which inequalities are reproduced & resisted and the kinds of subjectivities and identities which are constituted through unequal social relations. I draw on a diverse body of scholarship in my work, notably from feminist theory, sociology, media and cultural studies, social and critical theory and political philosophy and I typically bring together and analyse diverse archives of materials, including primary empirical data, policy materials, and a range of cultural materials. It is intersectional research which employs mixed methods and draws together long-standing research interests in migration, internal and external borders, sexual politics, social class, "race" & ethnicity, disability and poverty, and an abiding interest in culture (cultural economies), representation, subjectivity, processes of mediation and political aesthetics.
Alongside work on class, culture, gender and inequality I have published widely in the area of borders, citizenship, migrancy and in 2009 I set up a cross departmental migrancy Research Group at Lancaster University. I have recently edited, with Katarzyna Marciniak (Ohio University) a special issue of Citizenship Studies on `Immigrant Protest`(2013) and a book Immigrant Protest: Politics, Aesthetics, and Everyday Dissent (New York: SUNY, 2014). I have recently completed an ESRC funded project called 'Making Asylum Seekers Legible and Visible: An Analysis of the Dilemmas and Mitigating Strategies of Asylum Advocacy in the UK and US '. During 2012-2015 I co-organised an ESRC funded series of events ‘Exploring Everyday Practice and Resistance in Immigration Detention‘. The final conference in this series 'The Business of Immigration Detention: Activisms, Resistances, Critical Interventions' took place in Lancaster in Jan 2015.

Ines Bramao
Senior Lecturer in Psychology , Lund University
My primary academic focus is to understand the cognitive and neural processes underlying episodic memory. Episodic memory enables mental time travel, allowing us to relive specific, personally experienced events tied in time and place.
With this purpose, I use behavioral and cognitive testing in combination with advanced analysis methods (e.g., multivariate pattern analysis – MVPA) applied to high-temporal resolution brain data (Electroencephalography – EEG). This approach allows the investigation of memory reactivation as it unfolds in time as well as its consequences for current and future thinking and behaviour.

Ines Lange
Senior Research Fellow in Coral Reef Ecology, University of Exeter
My research addresses questions about the response of coral reef ecosystems to natural and human-induced environmental variability. Synthesizing research on ecological and physiological responses of reef organisms to their environment and the importance of reef carbonate structures for habitat provision, coastal protection and sediment supply to low-lying islands, I am currently focussing on quantifying reef geo-ecological functions. In this sense I am evaluating the impacts of environmental change on the state and functioning of reef carbonate structures and the potential beneficial effects of active management interventions, such as reef restoration or rat eradication from islands.

Ione Fine
Professor of Psychology, University of Washington
Over the last few years my laboratory has been focusing on the effects of long term visual deprivation on human visual processing. Long term visual deprivation results in deficits in high level visual processing (such as face and object recognition) that cannot be explained by low level amblyopic deficits, and suggest that the role of visual experience differs widely across different types of processing. As well as characterizing the behavioral effects of deprivation, we have been examining the neural effects, using functional magnetic resonance imaging.

I am a political sociologist and my primary area of research over the last 10 years has been on the politics of identity, representation and violence in relation to development and governance. I believe that good research should make a social impact and I have taken inspiration from and evolved through connections with academic, practical and policy spheres.
Soon after completing my PhD in International Development from the University of Bath in 2010 I joined BRAC University’s Institute of Governance Studies (now called Institute of Governance and Development) as their Head of Research between 2010-2012. I was steering the IDRC’s Think Tank Initiative programme and during my tenure I led the research team on the publication of the first and very influential State of Cities report on Dhaka. In 2012, I joined the University of Surrey’s Department of Politics where I was engaged with the Centre for Critical Research on International Intervention.

Irem Sepil
Lecturer in Evolutionary Biology, University of Oxford
I am an evolutionary biologist broadly interested in reproductive ageing, nongenetic parental effects, sexual selection and life-history theory. My postdoc work addressed an important but understudied aspect of reproductive ageing: declining ejaculate performance with male age. I used a short-lived tractable animal model, the fruit fly Drosophila melanogaster to investigate sperm- and seminal fluid-mediated male reproductive ageing and interventions to delay it.
Now, as a Royal Society Dorothy Hodgkin Fellow, I am interested in understanding how paternal age and paternal diet influence the fitness of the offspring. Recent evidence suggests that a father’s age and diet can have important effects on offspring physiology. These studies highlight that paternal effects are likely to be powerful determinants of offspring fitness, yet many important questions in the study of paternal effects remain unanswered, such as why and how they occur. I use fruit flies to identify the causal relationship between paternal age, diet and offspring fitness, and to uncover the ejaculate-mediated mechanisms driving these relationships. My group also studies the transgenerational effects of gametic ageing and experimentally tests the predictions of life-history and ageing theories.
