Sara Rye

Associate Professor, University of Bradford
Sara is an associate professor in University of Bradford recognised for her expertise in game-based learning. She has actively contributed to various research projects across Europe, the UK, and the Middle East. Sara's passion lies in implementing game-based learning methodologies within educational settings and extending their reach to diverse environments such as universities, rehabilitation facilities, and youth programs. She has successfully integrated game elements into the classroom, harnessing the power of gamification to enhance student engagement and learning outcomes. Sara's innovative approaches and effective strategies have garnered recognition, enabling her to disseminate her practices widely within UK, Europe and beyond. In addition to her academic pursuits, Sara has also provided consultancy services to numerous charities focused on youth development, young ex-offenders, and medical care professionals. Her expertise in designing game-based interventions has fostered skill-building, rehabilitation, and personal growth among these vulnerable populations. Sara's commitment to promoting inclusive education through game-based learning is evident in her collaborative efforts with various stakeholders and collaborators including educators, game designers, and policymakers to create inclusive and accessible learning environments. Her work aims to bridge the gap between traditional teaching methods and engaging, immersive learning experiences that resonate with today's students. She continues to push the boundaries of game-based learning, empowering educators and learners alike. Her contributions have not only advanced the field but also positively impacted the lives of individuals in diverse educational and rehabilitation contexts.

Sara Smith

Senior Midwifery Lecturer, Anglia Ruskin University
Having previously worked in administrative roles, I decided to train to become a midwife after the birth of y three children, having received such exceptional care from my community midwife.

I trained and worked local to my home and after working in all areas of the maternity service, was given the opportunity to work back at the university where I had trained in a skills tutor role. Following on from this, I completed my Masters studies and attained promotion to a senior lecturer post, where I continue to work today.

I have a keen interest in community midwifery (including antenatal education), but also high risk postnatal care.

Sarah Bergen

Principal Researcher, Department of Medical Epidemiology and Biostatistics, Karolinska Institutet
I conduct quantitative genetics research predominantly focusing on schizophrenia and bipolar disorder as well as some projects on depression and eating disorders. My current studies aim to better understand the genetic and environmental contributions to disease risk, comorbidities associated with these disorders, and the observed variability within patient groups. I also have a keen interest in developing ways of subtyping patients to better understand the heterogeneous etiological pathways that give rise to these disorders. My strong foundation in neuroscience offers added biological context to the results from genetic research studies. Ultimately, I hope my research will contribute to improved treatment and prevention strategies for serious, chronic mental illnesses.

Sarah Chellappa

Associate Professor, Cognitive and Affective Neuroscience, University of Southampton
Sarah L. Chellappa, MD, MPH, PhD, is an Associate Professor at the University of Southampton, UK. Dr. Chellappa´s work has shown that sleep and circadian rhythms affect mood, cognition and brain activity in a variety of human populations, including healthy young and older adults, shift workers, patients with depression, patients with ocular diseases, and in individuals with neurodevelopmental conditions. Their work combines multimodal neuroimaging approaches to assess how sleep and circadian rhythms affect brain activity that modulate mood and cognition. Their work also includes sleep/circadian interventions to help improve mood, health and well-being using targeted light exposure and, more recently targeted nutritional interventions (meal timing) to improve cardiometabolic and mental health in humans.

Sarah du Plessis

PhD Candidate, Cardiff University
During my BSc in Zoology at Cardiff University, on a placement year I conducted a research project studying the habitat use of Samango monkeys in relation to their food availability, first sparking an interest in a career in research. For my dissertation I used genetics to assess the success of translocations of the critically endangered Bojer's skinks among the islands surrounding Mauritius, which was published in Conservation Genetics shortly after I graduated in 2017. In 2018 I started a Masters by Research at the University of Bristol looking at plant plasticity and roots under environmental stress, of two altitude-specific ragwort species found on Mt Etna, Sicily. I submitted this thesis and successfully defended it May 2020.

In October 2019 I returned to Cardiff to begin a PhD with the Cardiff University Otter Project and Molecular Ecology groups, using the newly sequenced otter reference genome and samples from the otter archive to study the demographic history of populations within the UK. During the pandemic I begun learning the skills required for population genomics, and initiated the collborations from which I have developed our range-wide whole genome dataset of 63 samples.

During my PhD I have spent time working at the Smithsonian's National Zoo and Conservation Biology Institute with one of my supervisors, Dr Klaus-Peter Koepfli, thanks to a Welsh Government Researcher Mobility Grant. I have also spent three months working at the Centre of Evolutionary Hologenomics, at the GLOBE Institute in Copenhagen with Prof Tom Gilbert learning about ancient and historic DNA lab and bioinformatic methods, thanks to an EMBO Scientific Exchange Grant.
