Razak Kiribou

PhD Candidate, Africa Center of Excellence for Climate Smart Agriculture and Biodiversity Conservation, Haramaya University
Razak is a PhD candidate in climate-smart agriculture at Haramaya University.

Mr Kiribou's PhD topic is the Spatio-temporal carbon dioxide emission dynamics induced by land use change in Bontioli complex reserve of the West African dryland ecosystem.

Rebecca Flowers

Professor of Geological Sciences, University of Colorado Boulder
Rebecca Flowers is a professor of geological sciences at the University of Colorado Boulder. Dr. Flowers uses thermochronology, geochronology, and geologic observations to address problems in continental tectonics and mantle dynamics, with particular focus on understanding the coupling of deeper Earth and surface processes over extended (10s-100s Ma) timescales. Her (U-Th)/He geochronology lab also emphasizes the development and refinement of both conventional (e.g., apatite, zircon, titanite) and novel (e.g., conodonts, rutile, garnet) He thermochronometers. She is especially interested in creative, collaborative applications of (U-Th)/He data to problems in fields in which the technique has not typically been utilized. For example, her group has dated lunar zircon to constrain the impact history of the Moon, dated perovskite to determine the timing of kimberlite emplacement, and dated conodonts in an effort to decipher the thermal history of shales.

Rebecca Leech

NHMRC Emerging Leadership Fellow, School of Exercise and Nutrition Sciences, Deakin University
Dr Rebecca Leech is a Registered Nutritionist (RNutr.) and Nutritional Epidemiologist. She has a PhD in Nutritional Epidemiology, and in 2018, was awarded an Alfred Deakin Medal for her doctoral thesis, which examined adults’ eating patterns and their relationships with overall diet quality and markers of cardiometabolic health. Eating patterns describe the timing, frequency, and food content of eating occasions, which includes meals and snacks. Her current research applies novel analysis techniques and assessment methods to understand the contextual determinants of eating patterns. Rebecca's research intends to inform the development of strategies for healthy eating that are context-specific and tailored to everyday situations.

Since the award of her PhD in 2018 Rebecca has held three consecutive fellowships and has received over $673k in research funding (National Heart Foundation; National Health & Medical Research Council) as lead investigator. In 2019, she was a Finalist for the Premier's Award for Health and Medical Research (Public Health Category). Between 2018 and 2021 she was the Chair of Student Mentoring for the Nutrition Society of Australia. Rebecca also has a master's degree in clinical epidemiology and was a secondary teacher of German and Science before pursuing a career in nutrition research.

Rebecca McKenzie

Senior Specialist in Molecular Biology, Malaghan Institute of Medical Research
I entered into the world of molecular science in 2010 completing a BSc(Hons) in Microbiology and Immunology at the University of Otago. Here I fell into the world of CRISPR-Cas an adaptive bacterial immune system that has now taken the world by storm with its abilities to edit the human genome completing my honours degree in the lab of Peter FIneran. Through this topic I made my way to Delft University of Technology to work as a research assistant and then complete my PhD degree also focussed on the topic of CRISPR-Cas immunity and the interaction between viruses and bacteria on a single cell level. On completion of my PhD I returned to New Zealand and had the desire to apply my skills in research and communication to a topic in science directly contributing to the better health of others and as a result I accepted the exciting position at the Malaghan Institute as a postdoc on setting up an RNA vaccine and therapeutic pipeline.

Rebecca Mead

Senior Research Associate in Public Health Policy, Lancaster University
I am committed to generating high quality practical knowledge to support disadvantaged communities of place and interest to become equal partners in action to reduce the social inequalities driving health inequalities.

I am a member of the research team conducting a longitudinal evaluation of Big Local, the largest community empowerment programme implemented in England (https://communitiesincontrol.uk), which is revealing the pathways through which communities of place develop the capabilities they need to have collective control over decisions and actions that impact on their lives and health.

As a member of the NIHR School for Public Health Research (NIHR SPHR) I contribute to several projects in the Places and Communities Programme evaluating efficient and effective strategies for investing scarce resources in local place-centred public health. I was also recently awarded funding to explore local emergency responses to the covid-19 pandemic in relation to existing social and health inequalities.

My doctoral research focussed on the implementation of public health policy aspirations relating to improving population health and reducing social inequality in health as an aspect of the work of local public sector partnerships. Since completing my PhD I have developed my research skills on a wide range of proejcts using participatory research and evaluation methods with communities of place and interest to support public health action.

I am a Lecturer in Political Theory at the University of Warwick. Prior to this, I taught Political Theory at the University of Oxford, and before that, taught for several years at the University of Manchester.

I have a PhD in Political Theory from the University of Manchester. My doctoral research was concerned with moral psychology and the role played by emotion and sentiment in public reason and the construction of morality, but since then I have become more radical in both my thinking and my activism. I am now especially interested in the challenge posed to class based liberation movements by the shift towards identity politics, and in particular the implications of this for feminist theory and practice. I have written extensively about the nature of sex, gender and identity, and am currently in the process of completing a book on the subject, entitled “The Politics of Gender Identity: A Feminist Critique”, to be published by Palgrave in late 2016.
