I. Sadaf Farooqi

Wellcome Principal Research Fellow and Professor of Metabolism and Medicine, University of Cambridge
My team studies the molecular and physiological pathways involved in the regulation of human appetite and body weight and their disruption in obesity. Some of the molecular pathways involved in regulating weight also regulate blood pressure and lipid metabolism, and affect an individual's risk of cardiovascular diseases.

One of the links between obesity and cardiovascular disease is leptin. We have identified mutations in leptin gene using candidate gene approach in patients with severe, early onset obesity, and have demonstrated that leptin contributes to hypertension in obese individuals. These results suggest that pharmacological approaches that modulate leptin’s effects on cells could represent a useful therapeutic strategy for the treatment of obesity-associated hypertension and might help prevent a subset of obesity-associated cardiovascular disease.

Iain Black

Associate Professor in Marketing, Heriot-Watt University

I joined Heriot Watt as a Reader from the University of Edinburgh and before that held the post of senior lecturer at University of Sydney. My main interests revolve around sustainability. I am the Sustainable Consumption theme leader for the International Sustainable Development Research Society and my research focusses on anti-consumption, consumer’s responses to scarcity and how consumers dispose of goods. This has led to policy work exploring ways to rebalance dysfunctional relationships with materialistic consumption. http://allofusfirst.org/library/from-i-to-we-changing-the-narrative-in-scotlands-relationship-with-consumption/
Starting with an interest in how the Scottish Green party were influencing the Scottish Independence referendum, I have spent the last 4 years studying volunteer participation in this event and the marketing practices deployed, including the use of Hope vs Fear appeals. As part of this, I conducted what is the most comprehensive survey of the Yes volunteers to date, the findings of which, published by CommonWeal “available via http://allofusfirst.org/library/the-yes-volunteers-capturing-the-biggest-grassroots-campaign-in-scotlands-history
This work has been widely reported in new media outlets such as Bella Caledonia, Common Space and Independence live and the Scottish Independence podcast. It is also making its way through academic journal review processes.

Iain Richards

Senior Lecturer, Animal Life, University of Central Lancashire
Iain is an innovative, enquiring veterinarian who combines 30 years’ clinical experience of all major species into a wider understanding of how ecology and ecosystem health affect animal and human epidemiology.

Iain will be involved in the creation of and teaching within the new veterinary school, bringing his wide experience of clinical practice and business skills into the syllabus

Iain has spent most of his working life as a mixed species practitioner, mostly in the north of England. He has progressed from assistant to sole owner, partner and finally as director of a two-site multi vet practice. During that time he worked intensively in the Foot and Mouth outbreak of 2001 gaining insight into disease control at an epidemic level. His practice was a founding member of XLVets UK and Iain later served on the board of Directors.
From 2011, he left clinical practice and combined househusband and childcare duties with occasional locum work, that included stints on the Isle of Mull and the island of St Kitts. From 2013-2106 he studied for and gained a Masters in Conservation Medicine through Edinburgh University, which rekindled a longstanding interest in ecology. This now provides his major area of interest in how the ecology of parasites needs to be understood in order to maintain sustainable control.

Ian Afflerbach

Associate Professor of American Literature, University of North Georgia
I have 10 years of experience teaching, speaking, and writing on American cultural politics. Whatever the venue, I try to get my audience to think about the places where our major concerns as citizens and as readers overlap – whether those concerns are "color blind" racism, debates over reproductive rights, or presidential character. We can learn about the big questions in our lives through literature, and learn about literature by spending time understanding political and philosophical writers. My first book, "Making Liberalism New: American Intellectuals, Modern Literature, and the Rewriting of a Political Tradition," was recently published by Johns Hopkins UP in 2021, and illustrates my methods as a scholar. I'm currently writing a book entitled "Sellouts! The Story of an American Insult." My research has also appeared in flagship journals for literary history (PMLA, English Literary History), American Literature (Modern Fiction Studies, Studies in the Novel), and periodical studies (American Periodicals, Amerikastudien).

Before arriving at the University of North Georgia, I taught courses in digital archival work and science fiction periodicals at Georgia Tech, seminars in critical theory at the Gutenberg University in Mainz, Germany, and survey courses in Anglophone literature at UC Davis. At UNG, I regularly teach our African American Literature course, as well as our Introduction to Literary Studies, and our survey of modern American Literature.

Ian Anderson

Ph.D. Student in Social Psychology, USC Dornsife College of Letters, Arts and Sciences
I study how beliefs, decisions, and behaviors are influenced by social media and technology, primarily through the lens of habits.

I am currently attending USC to acquire my PhD in Social Psychology, with a focus on media habits. I research the impact of social media on human behavior, while also seeking to understand how technology shapes the spread and adoption of behaviors and ideas across individuals and/or groups.

My research background includes a research masters degree from INSEAD in marketing science with a focus on consumer behavior. My expertise in Social Media comes from nearly 5 years of dedicated research and work on digital strategy with Temin and Company in New York City (some while part-time as a student at Swarthmore College) as well as advertising experience at Sony Pictures Home Entertainment and Research Associate work at Columbia University's business school. I graduated from Swarthmore College in 2013, where I completed an Honors Major in Political Science and Major/Honors Minor in Economics. This included extensive coursework in mathematics, philosophy, psychology, political and economic theory, and english literature.

Ian Dadour

Adjunct professor, Murdoch University
Professor Ian Dadour completed his Bachelor of Science at the University of Western Australia and went on to complete a PhD in Zoology specialising in acoustics and population genetics of bushcrickets. Since gaining his PhD, he has researched in several disciplines including insect behaviour and evolutionary biology, insect ecology, applied entomology and forensic entomology.
Following a series of postdoctoral fellowships in Germany on insect mating systems and then a University of Adelaide Postdoctoral Fellowship at the Waite Institute on habitat selection by butterflies, he began work in 1989 at the Western Australian Department of Agriculture. As well as being the Officer-in-Charge of the Dung Beetle/ Bush Fly Programme, this was the beginning of his forensic entomology career. In 1999 Ian secured an Australian Research Council grant at the University of Western Australia to investigate oviposition of insects on decomposing corpses.
In 2008 Ian was promoted to Professor, a culmination of establishing the Centre for Forensic Science in 2000 and substantive and outstanding contributions nationally and internationally in each of the areas of research, teaching and service. During this period Ian sustained a high level of research and scholarship for over a decade and has established himself as a leading scholar in the field of forensic entomology. This is documented through a portfolio of peer-reviewed journal and industry publications, a succession of ARC and other research and consultancy project grants, attracting and successfully supervising many postgraduate thesis candidates and invitations to teach law enforcement agencies globally. As a consequence of research conducted at the University of Tennessee’s (UT) Anthropological Facility in Knoxville, Ian was part of the teaching faculty with the FBI, and each year since 2003 until 2014 he has been an instructor for the FBI Evidence Response Team in the Human Remains Recovery School. Ian is also affiliated with the new Anthropological Facility at Oakridge (TN) operated by the Forensic Academy (UT). As well he has collaboration with the largest and more recently established Forensic Anthropology Research Facility at Texas State University at San Marcos. Ian became a Professor with The Boston University Medical School in 2015 and taught a unit of forensic entomology into their Master of Forensic Anthropology Course as well as supervising Master degree students. Ian is a Visiting Professor at Lincoln University, UK and prior to Brexit he was teaching annually into the Erasmus Mundus (EM) Master of Forensic Science Course. He continues to supervise Master students in AUS, UK and USA. While Director of the Centre of Forensic Science at UWA in 2015 over 450 students gained Graduate Certificates/Diplomas, 67 students were awarded Master degrees and 38 students received either a PhD or combined Master/PhD degrees. Ian continues to be the Western Australian Honorary Forensic Entomologist and has appeared as an expert witness in this discipline in courts in Western Australia, Northern Territory, Queensland and New South Wales. Currently, Ian is Head of Research and Education with Source Certain (a forensic/provenance company concerned with supply chain integrity of food and minerals).

Ian Hohm

Graduate Student of Psychology, University of British Columbia
My research draws on an evolutionary psychology approach to investigate how deep-seated motivations influence behaviour in the context of particular threats and opportunities. For example, in one current project, I am applying error management theory to examine evolved biases in person-perception, such as attributions about the internal (psychological) and external (physical) characteristics of people who pose specific threats. In another, I am exploring how people may have developed an adaptive followership psychology for selecting leaders whose qualities were historically best-suited to solve different group challenges. In a third line of work, I am examining how people adapt to seasonal changes that cyclically alter natural ecologies, physiological processes, and social interactions to generate annual patterns of human behaviour (e.g., seasonal changes in short-term vs. long-term mating).

Ian Shiels

Postgraduate Researcher, Institute for Medieval Studies, University of Leeds
I am a Postgraduate Researcher at the Institute for Medieval Studies at Leeds University. I am a doctoral candidate in my third and final year, and my thesis is entitled Ridiculae Fabulae: Story and History in the Poetry of the Exeter Book. It is about the narratives behind the poems Wulf and Eadwacer, the Old English Elegies, Deor and Widsith, investigating the stories – often historical – which lie behind them and which Anglo-Saxon audiences would have known but critics today mostly do not bother about.

My area of study is medieval secular (often called “heroic”) poetry in Old English, Old Norse and Old High German, and the Icelandic family sagas. I am particularly interested in understanding the cultures and societies which produced, consumed (and criticised or ignored) this literature, the ideas and beliefs which informed it, and the means by which it was transmitted. The article I discuss in The Conversation is a good example of my theme and method.
