Tom Buchanan
Professor of Psychology, University of Westminster
Much of my research over the past two decades has centred on how people behave while they are online, as well as considering what the internet has to offer for psychologists in research and teaching contexts. Some of it has been methodological in nature, for example focusing on web-based psychological measurement, validity of online research techniques, and ethics of online data collection. Other work has focused on the application of these techniques to topics including online self-disclosure, self-presentation, privacy concern, effects of recreational drug use, and online fraud and deception. My current focus is generally on factors affecting how people engage with online technologies, potential influences of online stimuli on our behaviour, and questionnaire based measurement of cognitive problems.

Tom Cantrell
Professor in Theatre, University of York
I am a Professor in Theatre and Associate Dean for Teaching, Learning and Students in the Arts and Humanities Faculty. As Associate Dean I lead on the management, strategic initiatives and development of learning and teaching across the faculty. Within the School of Arts and Creative Technologies, I teach on the BA in Theatre: Writing, Directing and Performance and the MA in Theatre-Making as well as supervising doctoral research students.
My research addresses questions of performance, approaches to theatre-making and acting processes. To date, I have published four books on acting. I am currently co-editing The Theatre-Maker’s R&D Sourcebook for Bloomsbury and researching the work of the National Theatre Studio. My recent publications have explored acting processes for television, including Acting in British Television and Exploring Television Acting, both written with Christopher Hogg, and documentary theatre, including Acting in Documentary Theatre and Playing for Real, alongside a number of articles.
I have held visiting professorships at the Université de Picardie Jules Verne and Concordia University, Montreal, where I was scholar-in-residence at the Acts of Listening Lab.
My research interests include: acting theory and practice, television performance, verbatim and documentary theatre and television, modern British political theatre, and approaches to research and development in theatre-making.
My research addresses questions of performance and, in particular, acting processes. To date, I have published four books on acting. Recently, I have been researching acting processes for television with Christopher Hogg (University of Westminster), and have published a number of articles on this theme. Our work is the first detailed research into how actors approach the specific demands of television. Most research views performance via textual analysis of the finished product. By contrast, we use interviews with celebrated television actors to focus on their process, and how they bring their skills to bear on this particular medium. We have recently published Acting in British Television (Palgrave, 2017) and an edited collection, Exploring Television Acting, for Bloomsbury (2018).
My previous research has focused on how actors approach playing real people. I co-edited Playing for Real with Mary Luckhurst (Palgrave, 2010), which is a collection of interviews with high-profile actors who have portrayed real people on stage and screen. Interviewees included Ian McKellen, Eileen Atkins, David Morrissey and Joseph Mydell. I continued to pursue my interest in the challenges of playing real people in my monograph, Acting in Documentary Theatre, which was published by Palgrave in 2013. Including new interview material with over forty actors, directors and writers, my book was the first to explore the challenges of acting in documentary theatre.

Tom Kane
Senior Lecturer in Business Analytics, University of Stirling
I am a research-active lecturer in Artificial Intelligence, Data-Science and Business Information Systems. My primary research area is in the artificial intelligence of artificial persons and interactions between artificial persons and natural persons. The oncoming fourth industrial revolution which will blur the distinction between human and machine interactions is inevitable, and will bring disruptive business opportunities for organisations who manage to harness the new business potential of social bots, communicative medical devices, deep data-mining, cognitive and near-cognitive systems and robotic, autonomous systems. Alongside the challenge of innovating hardware and software systems that can mimic or impersonate human capabilities come fascinating and complex ethical questions of their place in the Information Society. Clear, logical AI models that maintain contractual obligations and ethical responsibilities; and that are comprehensible and testable by technologists and civic society alike are my major interest. My background is both academic and business focused. The rollout of implementations of AI systems while addressing the ethical questions these systems raise are of interest both to my Artificial Intelligence training and my business background.

Tom McClelland
Lecturer in History and Philosophy of Science, University of Cambridge
I recently joined HPS after three years at the Faculty of Philosophy. Before that I held posts at the universities of Warwick, Manchester and Glasgow and studied at the universities of Sussex, York and Cambridge. My research covers a range of overlapping topics in philosophy of cognitive science, metaphysics, aesthetics and applied ethics. My introductory book What is Philosophy of Mind? is available from Polity Press. For HPS I'll be leading Part II modules on the Ethics and Politics of Technology; Ethical Issues in Psychiatry and the Philosophy of Cognitive Science. I'm also DoS in HPS at Selwyn College and College Research Associate at Clare College. I'm partial to comics, cats and a good pot of tea.
Research interests
I'm currently focussing on the concept of affordances for mental action. Long-standing work in philosophy and psychology suggests that we see our environment in terms of the bodily actions we can perform in it e.g. you might perceive a teapot as affording gripping. I suggest we also see our environment in terms of the mental actions available to us. That is, you might perceive affordances to attend, to imagine, to deliberate etc. I've been exploring how findings in psychology and psychiatry can be helpfully reframed in terms of mental affordances and identifying avenues for future empirical research.
I've also been exploring how social inequalities might shape our perception. With Paulina Sliwa I've been working on the hypothesis that gender inequalities in the performance of domestic tasks may be underwritten by socially-mediated differences in how affordances for domestic tasks are perceived. More generally, I'm interested in the idea that perceptual experiences (or patterns of perceptual experience) are ethically evaluable.
Other topics I've worked on include: the contents of perception; mental action; cognitive phenomenology; self-consciousness; self-hood; artificial consciousness and artificial creativity; the metaphysics of consciousness; salience and attention; the limits of scientific enquiry; pathologies of agency and ownership; and the philosophy of film.

Tomás Finn
Lecturer in History, University of Galway
Tomás Finn is a lecturer in History at the University of Galway. He specialises in Irish and British history. An internationally recognised scholar, he is regarded as an authority on modern Irish political history. His research and publications have made a significant contribution to historical scholarship. The importance of his prize winning book on Tuairim in understanding the evolving intellectual climate in Ireland and its role in persuading governmental institutions to adopt new policies and a chapter on Donal Barrington, the Supreme Court Judge, in an edited volume have shown that public intellectuals in Ireland and among its diaspora, in fact, did influence the key policy decisions that shaped modern Ireland. This concern with intellectuals and social movements and the process of modernisation is reflected in his current work. He is currently co-editing two books and has chapters in each of these, one on Youth Political Parties and the other Muintir na Tire, the rural social movement. His work thus reflects the Department of History and School of History and Philosophy's ongoing research strengths in the areas of Activism and Justice, Religion and Society and Childhood, Youth and Family. He focuses on the intersection between intellectuals, civil society and church and state in understanding the process of modernisation.
