Joshua B. Gross is an Associate Professor in the Department of Biological Sciences at the University of Cincinnati, where he has been conducting research since 2010. His work focuses on evolutionary biology, particularly using the Mexican cavefish ( Astyanax mexicanus ) as a model system to study adaptation to extreme environments. Dr. Gross received his academic training at prestigious institutions: Ph.D. in Organismic and Evolutionary Biology from Harvard University (2005) M.S. with Distinction in Biological Sciences from University of Denver (2001) B.A. in Psychology from Miami University (1995) Dr. Gross's research explores the genetic and developmental basis of evolutionary changes, with a focus on how organisms adapt to extreme environments. His primary model system is the Mexican cavefish ( Astyanax mexicanus ), which exists in both surface-dwelling (with eyes and pigmentation) and cave-dwelling (blind and depigmented) forms. His work integrates quantitative genetics, transcriptomics, and phenotypic analysis to understand the genetic changes underlying cave adaptation, including both regressive traits (like eye loss) and constructive traits (like enhanced taste systems). Analysis of Dr. Gross's recent publications reveals a strong focus on sensory adaptation and craniofacial evolution in cavefish. His work has increasingly incorporated genomic and transcriptomic approaches to understand how cavefish adapt to low-oxygen environments, changes in sensory systems (particularly taste and lateral line), and craniofacial modifications. There's a clear trajectory toward understanding the integration between different biological systems, such as how sensory neuromasts influence skeletal development. Dr. Gross has received several notable awards and recognitions: National Academies Education Fellow in the Life Sciences (2014-2015) Young Investigator Winner, Sigma Xi, University of Cincinnati Chapter (2016) Honorable Mention, Excellence in Doctoral Mentoring Award Nominated for 2018 Dean's Award for Innovative Instruction Young Anatomist's Publication Award from the American Association of Anatomists (2004) As a principal investigator, Dr. Gross has secured substantial funding from the National Science Foundation and National Institutes of Health, including multiple R01 grants from NIH and major awards from NSF. His current projects include "The developmental basis for sensory-skeletal integration: The osteo-inductive role of neuromasts" (NSF IOS-2205928, 2022-2026) and "The constructive evolution of gustation: Molecular, organismal and environmental attributes of taste tuning" (NSF DEB-2343857, 2024-2028). He has mentored numerous undergraduate and graduate students through research projects and has been recognized for his teaching excellence, particularly in Human Genetics. Dr. Gross leads a research laboratory focused on evolutionary and developmental biology at the University of Cincinnati. His team employs a multidisciplinary approach combining field work in Mexican caves, laboratory experiments, genomic analysis, and developmental studies.

She joined SOAS in 2021 after completing her joint PhD at the University of Chicago under the direction of Wu Hung, Tom Gunning, W. J. T. Mitchell, Judith Zeitlin, and Dana Polan. Her interdisciplinary work bridges art history, screen studies, East Asian studies, and digital humanities, with a focus on innovative methodologies in art historical writing. Dr. Yang earned a dual BA from Peking University, double majoring in art and philosophy, followed by an MA from Tisch School of the Arts at NYU, and a PhD from the University of Chicago. During her undergraduate studies, she served as president of the Society of Dream of the Red Chamber Studies, which informed her secondary academic interest in Redology and the visual material world of the novel Hong lou meng. Panpan Yang's research explores how minor discourses can deterritorialize the terrains of both art history and screen studies. Her work demonstrates a multimethodological approach attentive to archival research, material practices, close visual analysis, computer-aided vision, and cross-cultural theorization. She is particularly interested in Chinese animation history, calligraphic imagination in contemporary art, and the intersections between traditional Chinese art forms and new media. Her publications reveal a consistent focus on Chinese visual culture across multiple media forms, with particular attention to animation, film, and calligraphy. Yang's work demonstrates how traditional Chinese art forms engage with contemporary digital media, creating new hybrid forms that challenge disciplinary boundaries. Her research shows a trajectory from historical analysis of Chinese animation to contemporary explorations of calligraphy in digital contexts, revealing the ongoing relevance of traditional Chinese aesthetics in modern media. Dr. Yang has received several prestigious awards for her scholarly and creative work: China's National Young Screenwriter Award Domitor Essay Award Dean's Distinguished Dissertation Award Nomination Honourable Mention from the Association for Chinese Animation Studies As a Principal Investigator, Dr. Yang leads the AHRC-funded research project "Stroke by Stroke: Calligraphic imagination in contemporary Chinese art and emergent media" (2023-25) with Shane McCausland.
