Clara Eroukhmanoff

Senior Lecturer in International Relations, London South Bank University
Clara is a Senior Lecturer in International Relations and the Associate Dean for Research & Enterprise in the School of Law and Social Sciences (London South Bank University). Her current research lies at the intersection of feminist writing in International Relations, gender and foreign policy, with a particular focus on feminist foreign policy, the remasculinisation of international politics and anti-genderism.

She is currently co-editing a book (with Hannah Partis-Jennings) on 'Feminist Policymaking in Turbulent Times: Critical Perspectives' (Routledge) which explores the growing integration of feminism and gender equality agendas in various areas of policy. In her chapter on 'French feminist diplomacy', Clara critically engages with this policy as a narrative and a strategic tool for France to re-brand itself as a 'feminist actor' on the international stage.

Clare Carolin

Senior Lecturer, Art and Public Engagement, King's College London
My work focuses on the intersection of contemporary art and various forms of state violence including socially detrimental urban overdevelopment and militarized force. I research how art, artists, architects, and urban planners have been implicated in the exercise of hard and soft state power, ‘inadmissible heritage’ in public collections, and artist monitoring by the state. Conversely, I explore visual histories of interracial solidarity and work to develop revisionist curatorial formats that reinterpret the art of the past.

My doctoral research combined contemporary art history and theory with security, intelligence, and media studies to investigate officially commissioned art during the Irish ‘Troubles’ and the 1982 Falklands/Malvinas conflict. My monograph based on this study 'The Deployment of Art' will be published by Routledge in 2023.

I was Exhibitions Curator at the Hayward Gallery (1999-2007), Senior Curator at Modern Art Oxford (2009-10), and Deputy Head of the Curating Contemporary Art Department, Royal College of Art (2007-2014). Recent projects include 'The Surface of the World: Architecture and the Moving Image' (Museum of Contemporary Art and Design, Manila, Philippines, 2014-17); 'Spectres of Modernism: Artists Against Overdevelopment' (Bowater House/Raven Row, London 2017-18) and 'Open Plan: Communities in Contemporary Art' (South London Gallery, 2022) (co-edited with Carey Robinson). I have worked in a freelance and associate capacity with diverse visual arts organisations including Tate; Kettle’s Yard, Cambridge; South London Gallery and the Alytus Biennale (Lithuania).

My doctoral research combined contemporary art history and theory with security, intelligence, and media studies to investigate officially commissioned art during the Irish ‘Troubles’ and the 1982 Falklands/Malvinas conflict. The monograph based on this work appears in 2023 (Routledge) addressed to their art, heritage, intelligence, social movement, and media studies lists. This feeds directly into the design of my next research project which explores interracial solidarity tactics and visual activism linking Northern Ireland and Black America during the 1960s, 1970s and 1980s. I will analyze contemporary art, political film, murals, and embodied protest actions to investigate how activists in Northern Ireland looked to the visual imagery of Black America as the basis for resistance and solidarity and ask if, and how that ‘look’ was returned. Planned research outputs for that project include a second monograph which will have wide appeal given current interest in interracial solidarity and anti-Imperialist struggle.

Experiments suggest that nontrivial quantum mechanical effects involving spin might underlie biosensing phenomena as varied as magnetic field detection for animal navigation, metabolic regulation in cells and optimal electron transport in chiral biomolecules.

Can spin physics be established – or refuted! – to account for physiologically relevant biosensing, and be manipulated to technological and therapeutic advantage? This is the broad, exciting question that the Quantum Biology Tech (QuBiT) Lab wishes to address.

Claudia Hanson

Senior Lecturer, Karolinska Institutet
As a mother, researcher and clinician I'm dedicated to improving maternal and newborn health in low-resource settings. Having worked, lived and done research for over six years in Sub-Saharan Africa, I understood that weak health system are the main reasons why many potentially effective and cheap evidence-based interventions as well as new innovations do not have the impact they should have. Without addressing the key bottlenecks in service provision, the high burden of mortality in pregnancy and around birth will not reduce: Year for year more than 300,000 mothers die together with 2 million babies born dead (stillbirths) and 2 million newborns.

I'm an Associate Professor at KI as well as at London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine, London, UK https://www.lshtm.ac.uk/aboutus/people/hanson.claudia.

My research centers much on finding a better balance between accessibility and quality of maternal newborn care and how to improve service provision.

Research description
I’m leading research to evaluate various strategies to improve the quality of care in facilities for maternal and newborn health.

Clemens Altaner

Associate Professor in Wood Science, University of Canterbury
I am a trained wood scientist with a focus on molecular aspects of plant cell walls. My research includes fundamental and applied projects.
At the fundamental end I am working on a better understanding of the supramolecular architecture of plant cell walls in particular the structure of cellulose fibrils and how this structure determines macroscopic wood properties.
Most of my current external research funding is for applied research on wood quality. Particularly exciting is my involvement as science team leader of the NZDFI, which envisages New Zealand as a world-leader in breeding ground-durable eucalypts, and to be home to a valuable sustainable hardwood industry based on eucalypt forests, by 2050.
As a biomaterial, wood is highly variable. This variability poses significant problems to the wood processing industry. My work is trying to reduce the variability of wood and by that gaining efficiency in the wood processing industry. The major factor restricting the incorporation of wood properties into tree breeding programmes is the lack of fast but robust analytical techniques. Therefore development of such assessments is a key part of the research, many of which are only available in this field at our world-leading NZ School of Forestry.
