Bethany Everett is an Associate Professor in the Department of Sociology and Criminology at the University of Utah, with a secondary appointment as Adjunct Associate Professor in Obstetrics & Gynecology. Her interdisciplinary research bridges social sciences and medical fields, focusing on how structural factors shape health outcomes particularly for sexual minority populations. Dr. Everett's research program centers on reproductive health, sexual orientation disparities, and structural determinants of health. She investigates how policies related to abortion access, sexual orientation nondiscrimination, and heteropatriarchal structures impact maternal and child health outcomes, socioeconomic attainment, and mortality. Her work employs advanced quantitative methods to analyze large longitudinal datasets including the Nurses' Health Study II and National Longitudinal Study of Adolescent to Adult Health. Her recent publications reveal critical patterns: sexual minority women experience disproportionate adverse birth outcomes that are moderated by policy environments; structural heteropatriarchy (the intersection of structural sexism and LGB-stigma) significantly impacts maternal cardiovascular health; and abortion access during adolescence correlates with improved long-term socioeconomic attainment for women. Her methodological contributions include developing frameworks for studying structural oppression in family research. Sexual and Gender Minority Research Working Group, National Institutes of Health (2019) Vice President's Clinical and Translational Research Fellow (VPCAT), University of Utah (2015) New Investigator Award, North American Menopause Society (2015) Dr. Everett has secured significant research funding including an NIH grant examining sexual orientation-related disparities in obstetrical and perinatal health (2021-2025), previous NIH Loan Repayment Program funding for sexual orientation disparities in birth outcomes research, and University of Illinois funding for family planning studies. Her teaching portfolio includes advanced courses in population studies, medical sociology, and professional development for graduate students.

Pip Thornton is a Chancellor's Fellow at the University of Edinburgh's School of Geosciences, holding a prestigious early-career academic position equivalent to Assistant Professor. Thornton's work bridges geography, linguistics, and digital studies with a specific focus on the political economy of language in digital spaces. Their research examines how technology companies transform human language into extractable economic data through what Thornton terms 'linguistic capitalism.' Thornton's research interests center on the exploitation and monetization of language by digital technology companies, with particular emphasis on how the transformation of language into data negates its creative and poetic value. Key areas include critical AI studies, online disinformation, digital geopolitics, and creative interventions as research methodology. Thornton investigates how platforms like Google, Meta, and AI companies extract economic value from human language, resulting in what they describe as 'linguistic detritus' that fills search results and AI outputs. Thornton's recent publications (2023-2024) show a strong focus on creative responses to AI and linguistic capitalism, with multiple exhibitions, performances, and critical interventions. Their work demonstrates consistent engagement with both theoretical critique and tangible artistic responses to digital technology's impact on language and communication. Virginie Mamadouh Outstanding Research Award, AAG (2021) 'Best Paper' at ACM CHI Conference on Human Factors in Computing Systems (2022) Thornton maintains active research funding through multiple projects including 'Page Against The Machine: a comedy-drama about AI' (University of London), 'Writing the Wrongs of AI' (Arts & Humanities Research Council), and several projects examining creative interventions in digital technology. Their research approach combines academic scholarship with public-facing artistic work, regularly participating in major cultural festivals including the Edinburgh International Book Festival and Wigtown Book Festival. Thornton is currently accepting PhD students interested in linguistic capitalism, digital humanities, and critical AI studies. Thornton leads the Articulating Data Research Group, which explores vocalisation, machine listening, and the (in)security of language through creative and critical approaches. This work combines technical understanding of AI systems with artistic interventions to examine how language is processed, commodified, and transformed in digital environments.
