Bridget Vincent
Lecturer in English (currently seconded as Marie Skłodowska-Curie COFUND-II Research Fellow, Aarhus Institute for Advanced Studies), Australian National University
My past and current research projects have focused on the specific contributions that literary works, and literary modes of analysis, can make to the interdisciplinary discussion of ethical and political problems. This interest has manifested itself in diverse projects at the intersection of literature and philosophy: work on moral philosophy and post-1950s poetry for my first book, on public apology in global anglophone literature, on the ethics of attention in modern literature, and on representations of modern ruins in ecological fiction. My first book, Moral Authority in Seamus Heaney and Geoffrey Hill, was published in 2022 by Oxford University Press. I am currently undertaking a Marie Skłodowska-Curie COFUND-II Research Fellowship at the Aarhus Institute for Advanced Studies.

She completed her PhD in Health Psychology in 2015 at Deakin University, Australia, exploring a psychosocial and behaviour change approach to preventing excessive gestational weight gain. For her thesis, she was awarded an Alfred Deakin Medal for Doctoral Thesis and an Australian Psychological Society (APS) Health College Award for Excellent Higher Degree Thesis in Health Psychology. Briony received an Alfred Deakin Postdoctoral Research Fellowship in 2016 and completed an NHMRC Early Career Fellowship (2017-2022) in the area of preconception wellbeing. She is currently Deputy Head of the Health and Social Care Unit, School of Public Health and Preventive Medicine at Monash University.
Research interests
Briony's research interests centre on weight stigma before (preconception), during (antenatal) and after pregnancy (postpartum). She is currently leading an ARC Discovery Project, her DECRA and several seeding grants on the topic of weight stigma across the reproductive years. Briony also has a strong interest in health behaviour change and psychosocial wellbeing (including depressive, anxiety and stress symptoms, body image, and coping skills) and understanding the mechanisms that lead to the attainment of healthy diet and physical activity practices and weight for women during their reproductive years. She also applies an Ecological Systems Theory lens to her research to recognise the broader impacts on wellbeing that extend through the community, society and government. As part of this work, Briony is one of only a small handful of researchers globally, pursuing research to understand how we can eradicate weight stigma at all levels to reduce the burden and blame on women across the reproductive life phase. She is an advocate for co-design methods in her research, to ensure relevant stakeholders have their say in the development and implementation of interventions to meet their needs.

Bronwen Whitney
Professor in Physical Geography, Northumbria University, Newcastle
Originally from Canada’s east coast, my interest in past environmental change was sparked as an undergraduate when I learned of the rapid climate and vegetation shifts that occurred in the North Atlantic region.
I studied for my PhD at the University of Edinburgh (2005 – 2009) where I examined climate and vegetation change from the last glacial period until present in the world’s largest tropical wetland. From there, I continued my research into human and climatic causes of tropical environmental change and I joined Northumbria University in January 2015
My research contributes to understanding the climatic and human influences on ecosystems, species abundance, and biodiversity. Using pollen and other microfossils preserved in sedimentary environments, such as algal remains and microscopic charcoal, I analyse how plant communities have responded to historical disturbances and past climate change.

Bryan Lessard
Postdoctoral Research Fellow, CSIRO
Dr Bryan Lessard was first introduced to the curious world of flies during his undergraduate studies at the University of Wollongong, learning about the behaviour, classification and applications of the winged insects to forensic entomology. With his interest peaked, he enrolled in a PhD at the Australian National University in Canberra to continue his research on flies, this time describing over 18 species new to science and using DNA to solve the mystery behind the evolution of gondwanan horse flies. In the hopes of generating buzz in taxonomy, the science of naming and classifying organisms, he described a horse fly with a golden abdomen after the performer Beyoncé, 'Plinthina beyonceae'. This “bootylicious” ambassador for biodiversity became a viral sensation and sparked a global conversation on the importance of flies. Dr Lessard now works as a Postdoctoral Fellow at the Australian National Insect Collection at CSIRO in Canberra. Here he continues to research the evolution of soldier flies, most famous for the black soldier fly 'Hermetia illucens' that powers compost bins and could become the next superfood of the 21st century.
