Yanaina Chavez-Ugalde

Research Associate, MRC Epidemiology Unit, University of Cambridge
I trained as a Food Engineer, and hold an MSc in Nutrition, Physical Activity and Public Health and a PhD in Population Health Sciences at the University of Bristol.
I have held different roles to enable people to adopt and maintain healthy lifestyles, including as a Physical Activity Project Officer at Macmillan Cancer Support, as a Health and Wellbeing Coach for the NHS Diabetes Prevention Programme, and as a Research Assistant at University College London.
Currently, I am a Research Associate at the MRC Epidemiology Unit at the University of Cambridge. I am interested in exploring the complex dynamics of the commercial food system and health. My work primarily examines the effects of ultra-processed food (UPF) consumption on youth’s health.
I am passionate about systems thinking approaches, science communication, and patient and public involvement to create healthier food environments.
My current research on UPF has brought to light the significant social injustices underlying our existing food system. Additionally, it has shed light on the public health disparities linked to UPFs, emphasizing the imperative for policy measures aimed at reducing health inequalities rooted in social injustice.
My aim is to contribute to our understanding of the drivers of UPF consumption in youth to better inform intervention, public health messaging and equitable policy development about the potential health and environmental harms of UPF consumption.

Yash Sondhi

Postdoctoral Research Associate in Entomology, Mcguire Center for Lepidoptera & Biodiversity, Florida Museum of Natural History, University of Florida
My research is about how moths and butterflies sense the world. I want to understand how their eyes and brains have evolved to complicated visual tasks in light-limited environments. I use an integrative approach looking at their genes, behavior and in the light of evolution to understand how butterflies’ and moths’ visual systems function. Like many other nocturnal animals, moths get disoriented and entrapped by light. I study the effects of light pollution on nocturnal insects and how we can combat this issue. I also help with citizen science and biodiversity monitoring in India.

Yasmin Moll

Assistant Professor of Anthropology, University of Michigan
I am an anthropologist of religion and media with expertise in the Middle East. I am also a visual and multimodal ethnographer. My research is informed by a conceptual attunement to difference and emancipatory politics within authoritarian contexts. My first book explores the role Islamic television played in Egypt’s 2011 revolution. My new ethnography on the intersections of Nubian digital activism, race, indigeneity, and social memory in Egypt takes the form of multimodal collaborations in film and animation.

My upcoming book explores Islamic television channels as sites of critique in the revolutionary Egypt of the 2011 uprising. My newest research revolves around two topics: a Henry Luce funded collaborative project with Emory University on the global politics of “moderate Islam” and a co-creative, multi-modal project on Nubian cultural activism and material heritage across Egypt and Sudan, funded by the Humanities Collaboratory.

Yasmina Molero

Researcher, Department of Clinical Neuroscience and Department of Medical Epidemiology and Biostatistics, Karolinska Institutet
I am a researcher at the Department of Clinical Neuroscience and the Department of Medical Epidemiology and Biostatistics at Karolinska Institutet. I obtained my PhD at Karolinska Institutet and completed postdoctoral fellowships at the University of Oxford and at Karolinska Institutet.

My research is mostly focused on pharmacoepidemiology. That is, I study the risks and benefits of common medications with a specific interest in psychiatric and behavioural outcomes such as depression, anxiety, suicide, overdoses, accidents, violence and other crimes. For this, I use Swedish pharmacy, healthcare, sociodemographic, crime and death registers, and I study nationwide cohorts of people who take different medications. I have previously published studies on the psychiatric and behavioural outcomes of antidepressants, nicotine replacement therapy, antiepileptic drugs, cholesterol-lowering medications, and medications for treating substance use disorders.

Yaw Agyeman Boafo

Senior Research Fellow, Centre for Climate Change and Sustainability Studies,, University of Ghana
I am a social ecologist specialising in climate change and sustainability science at the Centre for Climate Change and Sustainability Studies, University of Ghana. My academic background includes a PhD in sustainability science with a focus on ecosystem services assessment in rural, semi-arid landscapes. In my research and teaching, I combine conceptual and practical approaches to explore the consequences of human-nature interactions.

My current areas of research and academic interest encompass various facets of climate change, including adaptation and mitigation strategies, nature-based solutions involving biodiversity and ecosystem services, disaster risk reduction and resilience, as well as food and farming systems. Over the past decade, I have actively engaged in conducting and contributing to climate change and biodiversity assessments at multiple levels, spanning national, regional, and district scales. Notably, I have served as a lead author for the Intergovernmental Science-Policy Platform on Biodiversity and Ecosystem Services (IPBES) and as a lead reviewer for Ghana's Fourth National Communication to the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC).

I am deeply passionate about employing participatory methodologies in my research endeavours to generate solution-oriented outcomes. I aim to challenge stakeholders to design and implement practical, transformative resilience strategies that can address pressing environmental and sustainability issues.

My profound love and passion for plants, flowers, photography, and nature-clicktivism have been integral aspects of my life. Nature-clicktivism, as I like to call it, is my way of raising awareness about environmental issues and promoting conservation efforts through social media. It's a powerful tool that allows me to not only showcase the splendour of plants and flowers but also inspire others to connect with and protect the precious ecosystems that sustain life on our planet.

Yi Huang

Senior Lecturer in Climate Science, The University of Melbourne
Dr Yi Huang is a Senior Lecturer in Climate Science at the School of Geography, Earth and Atmospheric Sciences, The University of Melbourne. She is also a Chief Investigator of the Australian Research Council Centre of Excellence for Climate Extremes.

Yi's research seeks to address some of the fundamental yet climatically important questions that underpin the understanding of atmospheric processes, Earth’s energy budget and water cycle: How do clouds and precipitation modulate the Earth’s climate system? What processes control the properties of clouds and precipitation? How do these processes differ geographically? I believe this can only be achieved by innovative use of targeted field observations, state-of-the-art remote-sensing data and numerical modelling. Ultimately, Yi's work aims to harness the critical knowledge that will help improve weather and climate predictions at multiple scales.
