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.

Bryan G. Fry

Professor of Toxicology, School of the Environment, The University of Queensland
I head the Adaptive Biotoxicology Lab at the University of Queensland, which studies two broad areas of toxicology: how divergent evolution of venom systems results in differential effects upon human health and variable response to antivenom treatments; and the ecotoxicological effects of endocrine disrupting oil spill metals upon the health of wildlife and indigenous communities within the Amazonian ecosystem.

I have long studied the multifaceted roles of venoms in nature, from their employment in predation and defense to their use as tools for interspecies competition. Despite their critical roles and unique properties, our comprehension of venom systems' evolutionary trajectories remains in its infancy. Advancing our understanding of venom evolution necessitates an appreciation for the rich biochemical, ecological, morphological, and pharmacological diversity that characterizes venoms and their delivery mechanisms. A pivotal obstacle in this field has been the limited taxonomic breadth of species studied, leaving vast arrays of venomous species unexplored. My research endeavors are intrinsically transdisciplinary, synthesizing ecological, evolutionary biology, and functional genomics methodologies to decipher the evolution of venom systems. This includes pioneering work on the Komodo Dragon's venom, known for its potent hypotensive and anticoagulant effects, and the investigation of Antarctic octopus venoms, which exhibit unique adaptations to extreme temperatures.

I have recently expanded my laboratory's research ventures into the realm of ecotoxicology, specifically examining the repercussions of oil spill-related metals on Amazonian wildlife and the health of indigenous communities reliant upon these ecosystems for their food. These endocrine-disrupting contaminants, prevalent in oil spill sites, pose significant threats not only to the physiological integrity of local fauna but also to the health and traditions of indigenous populations whose lifestyles are closely interwoven with their natural surroundings. Through a concerted effort that bridges fieldwork, laboratory analysis, and community engagement, my research now seeks to uncover the impact of these pollutants on biological systems and contribute to the development of strategies that safeguard both wildlife conservation and public health.

Bryce Stewart

Bryce is a marine ecologist and fisheries biologist whose work has ranged from temperate estuaries to tropical coral reefs and the deep-sea. The central thread in his research has been to gain an increased understanding of the factors regulating marine populations and communities so as to ensure their sustainable utilisation. His work on deep-sea fishes was among the first to demonstrate their extreme longevity, and on coral reefs he provided new evidence for mechanisms of community regulation of prey fish by predators. More recently his focus has been on how to improve the management of fisheries through the use of predictive recruitment models, marine protected areas and stock enhancement. Bryce has also been especially active in promoting the sale and consumption of sustainable seafood by working with everyone from government ministers to fishermen, restaurants and supermarket chains.

Buddhi Wijesiri

Research Associate in Water and Environmental Engineering, Queensland University of Technology
I aspire to ensure access to adequate and safe water for ever-increasing populations. The fundamental purpose of my research is safeguarding water resources by mitigating water pollution. As such, I create knowledge and mathematical tools to understand the terrestrial processes that degrade water resources, essential for designing effective pollution mitigation measures.

I possess expertise and experience in applying physically-based and statistical modelling techniques in multiple computing platforms together with locally-sourced field data and data extracted from global databases to understand mechanisms of hydrological and pollution processes. In particular, I have successfully applied Bayesian Networks (BNs) and geospatial analysis to understand complex non-linear relationships among variables that determine pollutant behaviours in water environments.

My long-term research investigates how environmental changes and urbanisation influence degradation of water resources.

Bulent Gökay

Professor of International Relations, Keele University

My research and publications cover two interrelated strands- the first relates to the social and political history of the post-WWI settlements; and the second to contemporary issues and political economy of resources in Eurasia. Through my work I have set out to marry macro historical analysis with contemporary micro dynamics of political economy by employing a 'globalist' perspective.

Since the outbreak of global financial and economic crisis in 2007-08, I have been writing on the historical/ long-term origins of the crisis and the overall structure of the global economy, using a particular perspective which can be described as the ‘global shift model’. My recent book, The Fall of the US Empire: Global Fault-Lines and the Shifting Imperial Order (co-authored with Vassilis Fouskas), Pluto Press, 2012, is a good example to this, analysing the changing balance of global power, the hegemonic shift from the global "West" to the global "East/ South". The decline of the US hegemony, the rise of China and other Emerging Powers, and the nature of contemporary global economy are issues of paramount importance for understanding HOW THE WORLD WORKS, the current crisis and Where Do We Go from Here.

I joined Keele in 1996 from Wolfson College, Cambridge, where I had been a postdoctoral Research Fellow for the previous three years. Before coming to Keele, I taught at the Birkbeck College-London, University of North London, and at the University of Cambridge. I am the founder and the Managing Editor of the Journal of Global Faultlines.

My books include The Politics of Caspian Oil by Palgrave in 2001; Eastern Europe Since 1970 by Longman in 2005 (second edition in 2006), The New American Imperialism: Bush's War on Terror and Blood for Oil, co-authored with Vassilis K.
