Brittany Evans is a Senior Lecturer and Head of the Department of Criminology at Örebro University, Sweden. She holds affiliations with the School of Behavioural, Social and Legal Sciences and the Biopsychosocial Criminology and Psychology research environment. Her role includes teaching quantitative methods, biopsychosocial criminology, and psychopathology, alongside pedagogical development in the Criminology program. Evans' research focuses on biological mechanisms underlying developmental problems in youth, particularly stress-related factors such as cortisol levels, autonomic nervous system activity, and genetic influences. She explores how urbanicity and socioeconomic conditions interact with individual biology to shape behavior. Key projects include investigations into substance use, externalizing behaviors, and the relationship between depression and criminal outcomes using population-level data. Her recent articles emphasize interdisciplinary approaches, linking physiological markers like heart rate and empathy to criminal behavior. Collaborative studies with global researchers address topics ranging from adolescent pain management to gender differences in vulnerability. Ongoing projects include a population-wide analysis of neighborhood effects on substance use. Evans contributes to multiple research groups, including 'Biology of Criminal Behavior' and 'Development of Criminal Behavior Across the Lifespan.'

• Politics of Mediation
• +۷ مورد دیگر

Kirsten Cooke is a Lecturer in the Art Department at Goldsmiths, University of London, where she joined the Graduate Diploma in Art program in 2023 after teaching positions at the University of Reading and Birkbeck, University of London. With over thirteen years of international teaching experience across BA, MA, and PhD levels, Cooke situates curatorial practice as research that mediates how we 'know' through exhibition environments. PhD in Curatorial Practice, University of Reading (2016) MA in Critical Writing and Curatorial Practice, Chelsea College of Arts, UAL (2009) BA in Fine Art, Loughborough University (2007) Cooke's research centers on curatorial practice as a mode of knowledge production, specifically examining infrastructure space, queer ecologies, and the politics of mediation. Her work challenges anthropocentric, colonial, and capitalist approaches to mapping by developing watery cartographies through the Fluid Ground research project. She interrogates how exhibition environments stage our relationship with the planet, particularly through hydrological frameworks that decentre human exceptionalism and explore non-human embodiment. Her recent publications and exhibitions form a cohesive body of work exploring water as both medium and methodology. Rather than treating water metaphorically or transcendentally, Cooke develops practical approaches to mapping that acknowledge water's agency. This body of work moves from concrete exhibition architectures (like Metabolic Markets' repurposed department store and Snow Crash's scaffolding infrastructure) toward fluid cartographic practices that challenge normative spatial representations. Goldsmiths' College PRDF award for Fluid Ground research project Cooke supervises students interested in curatorial practice, critical-fictional writing, decolonizing exhibition practice, and queer ecologies. Her teaching spans undergraduate and postgraduate levels with particular focus on how curatorial frameworks can reorient our planetary relationships. The Fluid Ground project has generated multiple public outputs including exhibitions, workshops, and publications that model alternative approaches to landscape engagement. As curator of Steam Works gallery in Wandsworth Town, Cooke develops an exhibition program focused on queering and decentering gallery space while interrogating capitalism and class. The gallery, housed in a converted Georgian listed building, presents solo exhibitions supporting intergenerational exchange among artists at different career stages.
