Rebecca Mead
Senior Research Associate in Public Health Policy, Lancaster University
I am committed to generating high quality practical knowledge to support disadvantaged communities of place and interest to become equal partners in action to reduce the social inequalities driving health inequalities.
I am a member of the research team conducting a longitudinal evaluation of Big Local, the largest community empowerment programme implemented in England (https://communitiesincontrol.uk), which is revealing the pathways through which communities of place develop the capabilities they need to have collective control over decisions and actions that impact on their lives and health.
As a member of the NIHR School for Public Health Research (NIHR SPHR) I contribute to several projects in the Places and Communities Programme evaluating efficient and effective strategies for investing scarce resources in local place-centred public health. I was also recently awarded funding to explore local emergency responses to the covid-19 pandemic in relation to existing social and health inequalities.
My doctoral research focussed on the implementation of public health policy aspirations relating to improving population health and reducing social inequality in health as an aspect of the work of local public sector partnerships. Since completing my PhD I have developed my research skills on a wide range of proejcts using participatory research and evaluation methods with communities of place and interest to support public health action.

Rebecca Rebecca Reilly-Coope
I am a Lecturer in Political Theory at the University of Warwick. Prior to this, I taught Political Theory at the University of Oxford, and before that, taught for several years at the University of Manchester.
I have a PhD in Political Theory from the University of Manchester. My doctoral research was concerned with moral psychology and the role played by emotion and sentiment in public reason and the construction of morality, but since then I have become more radical in both my thinking and my activism. I am now especially interested in the challenge posed to class based liberation movements by the shift towards identity politics, and in particular the implications of this for feminist theory and practice. I have written extensively about the nature of sex, gender and identity, and am currently in the process of completing a book on the subject, entitled “The Politics of Gender Identity: A Feminist Critique”, to be published by Palgrave in late 2016.

Rebecca Shepherd
Senior Lecturer in Anatomy, University of Bristol
I am a Senior Lecturer in Anatomy at Bristol School of Anatomy, Bristol University. My PhD research focussed on the role of bone marrow adipocytes on bone health, and my current research continues on this theme to examine and understand the extracellular matrix of bone tissue in health and disease.
The second theme of my research, in collaboration with the Worldwide Wildlife Fund Hong-Kong, is developing the technique of Raman spectroscopy as a non-destructive tool for identifying ivory species at customs to aid with enforcement of elephant ivory trade bans. This project aims to use small differences in the biochemistry of the tusks of different species to enable rapid identification of the species.
I previously worked as a Lecturer in Anatomy at Lancaster Medical School, where I was responsible for delivering anatomy and histology teaching to undergraduate medical students. I initially studied Biomedical Science at Lancaster University, before working as a Health and Care Professions Council registered Biomedical Scientist in the NHS. I returned to university to complete my PhD, funded by an Anatomical Society Studentship. I enjoy science communication and public engagement, and I have performed ‘academic’ stand up comedy on a number of occasions!

Rebecca Stephenson
Associate Professor of Old English, University College Dublin
My PhD thesis and first book examined the interactions between Latin and English in Early Medieval England, culminating in my monograph The Politics of Language: Byrhtferth, Ælfric, and the Multilingual Identity of the Benedictine Reform. My more recent work has expanded to consider scientific writings produced in the Early Middle ages. I am particularly interested in the fields of medicine and the study of computus, which is the medieval method for calculating time and movable liturgical observances, like Easter. As part of these calculations, medieval writers began calculating the date of the end of the world and the coming apocalypse, and my current book project deals with apocalyptic ideas circulating in England in the late tenth and early eleventh century, a time of active Viking invasion.
