Satish Kumar

Research Fellow, The Senator George J. Mitchell Institute for Global Peace, Security and Justice, Queen's University Belfast
Dr. M. Satish Kumar’s research has been to understand the production of colonial and postcolonial ordering of space. Currently, he is engaged with the challenges faced by cultural heritage due to rapid urban expansion, political conflict and climate change and natural disasters. Of particular interest is the role of cultural heritage in informing questions of marginalization, identity in a decolonialized world. This involves identifying the synergies of the physical and the human ecosystems.

Providing critical non-Eurocentric perspectives to questions of colonial and postcolonial development based on previous research on dignity, gender, values, sustainable human development and humanitarian competition, across the rural-urban divide.

Saverio Eric Spagnolie

Professor of Mathematics, University of Wisconsin-Madison
My interests lie at the interface between fluid and solid structures in soft biological matter. The dynamics of bodies immersed in fluids at small scales is of great practical and biological interest, but fluid interactions on such scales are inherently nonlocal so their analysis and even computation can still be very challenging. I approach problems in biological propulsion, cell mechanics, and fluid-body interaction systems using a number of techniques, from the application of classical methods of applied mathematics to the development of novel numerical methods.

Sayra Cristancho

Associate Professor, Department of Surgery and Faculty of Education; Scientist, Centre for Education Research & Innovation, Western University
My research program investigates how action teams navigate and respond to disruptive events. My goal is to show how best to support training and practice for resilient teaming. To this end, I developed a unique research approach that cross-pollinates qualitative research, sociobiology, and engineering principles with insights from various industries, including healthcare, tactical/military, and emergency response. I am currently interested in understanding how community volunteer initiatives could augment emergency management in Canada, if we are to attain "whole-of-society resilience". As an author and with my research, I am hoping to contribute to the recent discussion around Canada's approach to emergency management that is taking place in The Conversation.

I lead the Emotion Processing and Offline Consolidation (EPOC) Lab at the University of York. Our research addresses the mechanisms through which sleep disturbances give rise to mental health problems, with a focus on neurobiological perspectives. We use a range of methods to do this, including behavioural studies, sleep electroencephalography (EEG) and functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI). Our findings have helped us to better understand what goes wrong in the brains of people who are not sleeping well, and how we can target these impairments to improve the prospects of people at risk of psychiatric disorders.

Scott Davies

Professor, Ontario Institute for Studies in Education, University of Toronto
My research has several branches. One examines trajectories of student achievement over several years. With various institutional partners I am compiling data sets that track students from their early years into post secondary levels, and to assess the impact of various interventions in reducing educational inequality. Another branch examines educational organizations, paying attention to the variety of school forms that are emerging at all levels of schooling, including various types of private schools and tutoring businesses, and various public schools of choice. In a third branch, I am attempting to contribute to sociological theories of education, variously interpreting how schooling and society have become more deeply ‘interpenetrated’ over time, charting different forms of cultural capital, and attempting to apply Interaction Ritual Theory to schooling.

Scott McGrane

Senior Lecturer in Environmental Change, Department of Economics, University of Strathclyde
I am a University of Strathclyde Chancellor's Fellow (Society and Policy) since May 2019, having originally joined the Department of Economics (Fraser of Allander Institute) at the University of Strathclyde in September 2017, working on a collaborative project alongside the Department of Physics and the Stanford Photonics Research Center.

My backrgound is in environmental science, though I pride myself in being a truly interdisciplinary researcher. My qualifications include an MA(Hons) in Geography and Environmental Science, and a Master of Research (MRes) in Civil Engineering, both from the University of Dundee. I completed my PhD at the University of Aberdeen in 2013 in catchment hydrology, undertaking research that explored the impacts of environmental perturbations on natural river dynamics in Scottish uplands.

My research interests have continued to address the impacts of environmental change on large river systems. Between 2013 and 2016 I worked as a research fellow in the Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering at the University of Surrey, working on a NERC funded project that sought to assess and model the impacts of urbanisation and climate change on water quality in the Thames Basin. In 2016, I moved to the School of Mathematics & Statistics at the University of Glasgow, working on an EPSRC project that sought to determine the interlinkages and feedbacks that exist between water, energy and food systems in the UK.

I am the Honorary Treasurer (and executive committee member) for the British Hydrological Society. I also serve as an expert reviewer for the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) for the upcoming Sixth Assessment Report, and I am part of the Position Statement authorship team for the American Geophysical Union, where I was recently involved in the determination of a climate change position statement for 2019.

My research investigates the role natural resources play in economic systems, and identifying the impacts of environmental change on economic sectors at a regional, national and international scale. Through my involvement with the Global Environmental Measurement and Monitoring (GEMM) Network at Strathclyde, I seek to explore how advances in earth observational technologies can better inform us on the likely impacts of climate change at a sub-national level, helping to drive the development of relative climate and environmental policies.

I am open to supporting PhD students that are interested in the role of the natural environment in economic systems, and undertaking transdisciplinary approaches to understanding the likely impacts of environmental change on human-environment systems (including economic impacts, health impacts, environmental system impacts and natural hazards).
