Sune Svanberg

Emeritus Professor of Physics, Lund University
After a post-doc year at Columbia University, New York and initial work on atomic laser spectroscopy, I worked on laser-based spectroscopy at Chalmers up till 1980, when I became professor and head of the Atomic Physics Division at Lund Institute of Technology (technical faculty at Lund University) up till 2008. In Lund I carried out a programme of laser spectroscopy, including basic atomic physics and applications to energy, environmental and medical research. Basic studies included studies of radiative properties of atoms and ions as well as superintense laser/matter interactions (high harmonics generation, X-ray laser pumping and broadband X-ray generation). Applications include laser radar sounding of pollutants in the atmosphere and hydrosphere, laser diagnostics of combustion processes, and laser-based detection and treatment of cancer and cardio-vascular disease. I also proposed and helped establish a High Power Laser Facility, including a multi-terawatt 10 Hz laser.
In 1995, I was appointed director of the newly established Lund Laser Centre, which also gained the EC status of a European Large Scale Facility. I remained its director till 2010, and continued as Senior Professor at the centre.

I am a member of the Royal Academy of Sciences (and during 10 years a member of its
Nobel Committee for Physics; two years as chairman), and the Royal Academy of Engineering
Sciences.

Suresh Neethirajan

University Research Chair in Digital Livestock Farming, Dalhousie University
Dr. Suresh Neethirajan stands out as a preeminent figure in the field of digital livestock farming, recognized for his groundbreaking work and extensive expertise. His academic foundation, which combines engineering with animal science, has propelled him to the forefront of integrating cutting-edge technologies into livestock management. This integration aims to elevate efficiency, animal welfare, and the sustainability of agricultural practices. Dr. Neethirajan's work is particularly notable for its embrace of a wide array of technologies, such as sensors and data analytics, which are crucial in shifting traditional farming towards smart, precision-oriented practices.

A key area of Dr. Neethirajan's contributions is his development of sensor-based technologies for continuous monitoring of animal health. This innovation plays a vital role in early disease detection, facilitating prompt intervention and minimizing the spread of illnesses among livestock. In the context of climate change, Dr. Neethirajan's work in creating metaverse digital twins for livestock is particularly groundbreaking. These virtual representations allow for a comprehensive and nuanced understanding of livestock environments, behaviors, and needs, leading to more informed decision-making processes in farming. His efforts in automated monitoring systems are directly aligned with advancing animal welfare and promoting sustainable farming practices. These endeavors underscore the significant role technology plays in not only transforming agriculture but also in addressing broader environmental challenges and ethical considerations in farming.

Susan Gair

Adjunct Associate Professor, College of Arts, Society & Education, James Cook University
Susan is a social work scholar with more than two decades of teaching, research, writing and practice in her discipline. Her research, practice, teaching and community service has focused on the advancement of social justice, reconciliation, and improved social policy and social work practice, particularly in regional Australia. Key areas of her past research and its application to professional practice have included child adoption policy and practice; working respectfully with Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander colleagues and communities; and cultivating empathy for improved social work practice and research. Recent projects include three partnership collaborations. These focused on: exploring grandparents’ reduced or lost contact with grandchildren after child protection intervention; a national partnership looking at student poverty and its impacts on study success; and more recently a partnership project with a diversionary service looking at the perceptions of young people at risk of offending about services provided to them. Her research has helped inform Government policies and practices, for example the Commonwealth Inquiry into Forced Adoption and a recent Senate Inquiry into Government income support for tertiary students. Her commitment to reconciliation, social justice and closing the gap between Indigenous and non-Indigenous Australians has included presenting writing groups in regional and rural communities. With Aboriginal colleagues, Susan have contributed to informing national and international social work programs.

Susan Jebb

Professor of Diet and Population Health, University of Oxford
I am a nutrition scientist and my research interests are focused on how what we eat affects the risk of gaining weight or becoming obese and the interventions that might be effective to help people lose weight or reduce the risk of obesity-related diseases. I have also conducted a series of randomised controlled trials to study the impact of dietary changes on the risk factors for cardiovascular disease. In general, this work highlights that body weight is a more important risk factor for ill-health than differences in the nutritional composition of the diet. I have strong scientific collaborations with the Behaviour and Health Research unit at the University of Cambridge and the MRC Human Nutrition Research unit, where I was a Programme Leader for many years.

I am also very interested in how scientific evidence on diet is translated into policy and practice, by government, industry, the public health community and the media. I was the science advisor for the Foresight obesity report and subsequently chaired the cross-government Expert Advisory Group on obesity and the Responsibility Deal Food Network. I am now a member of the Public Health England Obesity Programme Board and one of the Chairs of the NICE Public Health Advisory Committees. I am actively involved in a number of events and media projects to engage the public in issues relating to diet and health. In 2008 I was awarded an OBE for services to public health.

Susan Lawrence1

Profesor of History, University of Tennessee
During my career as a historian of medicine, I have worked on projects ranging from hospitals and medical education in 18th century London, to a digital project on Washington, D.C., during the Civil War (see Civil War Washington at www.civilwardc.org), to the effect of HIPAA and research ethics on claims about privacy rights for the dead. Now I am writing a book on the history of whole body donation in the United States with Susan E. Lederer of the University of Wisconsin-Madison. Why did Americans – starting with an eccentric few – decide they wanted to donate their corpses to medical schools? By the early 1950s, enough Americans had asked to do this that anatomy departments had to accommodate this unexpected bodily altruism. Over the next three decades, donated bodies slowly replaced the bodies of people who died with no one to claim them for burial. That legal supply had, in its turn, replaced the 19th century practice of dissecting corpses stolen from graves. From the horror of body-snatching to willing gift-giving – what a remarkable transition in attitudes towards, and access to, the dead.

At the University of Tennessee, I teach undergraduate and graduate courses on the history of medicine, in addition to World Civilizations since 1500. Before coming to the University of Tennessee, I was on the history faculty at The Ohio State University, the University of Nebraska-Lincoln, the University of Iowa, and Ball State University.
