Darren Rhodes
Senior Lecturer in the Department of Psychology at Nottingham Trent University. Interested in modelling perception, time perception, multisensory processing, Bayesian models, and Open Science.
Andrew P. Robinson
Managing Director of the Centre of Excellence for Biosecurity Risk Analysis; Professor of Applied Statistics in the Schools of BioSciences and Mathematics & Statistics at the University of Melbourne. My broad interests are in applied statistics, biosecurity risk analysis, and forestry.
Mark A Robinson
Mark’s research interests are related to musculoskeletal loading, injury and impairment in the lower limbs. Of particular interest are lower limb injuries, monitoring of training loads, gait and biomechanical data analysis. He has published >70 journal articles in these areas and has >90 verified reviews. He hosted the 2022 conference of the International Society of Biomechanics in Sports in Liverpool.
James J Roper
As an ecologist, I am interested in population dynamics of terrestrial vertebrates. To understand these dynamics, I use a combination of field data (usually with birds) and simulations. I am particularly interested in life histories of tropical and subtropical birds.
Mauro Rossi
Mauro Rossi is an expert on mapping, modeling and forecasting of landslides, floods and erosion processes in different geo-environmental and anthropic contexts. He has developed (i) new methodologies for statistical and deterministic analysis of the susceptibility and hazard posed by different geo-hydrological phenomena and for the estimation of their impacts, (ii) new statistical approaches to the definition of rainfall thresholds for triggering Landslides, (iii) early warning systems, (iv) approaches to the design optimal models for estimating landslide susceptibility and for the assessment of social risk posed by landslides and floods. He has also developed specific softwares for the landslide susceptibility modelling, for the landslide magnitude modelling and for the joint modeling of landslides and erosion processes in relation to different scenarios of geomorphological, climatic, vegetational and anthropic changes, in order to adequately characterize the hillslopes and the hydrological basins dynamics.
Barry S Rowlingson
I've worked in GIS and Spatial Statistics since 1990, first in the Maths and Stats and the Geography department, and now in the Lancaster Medical School as part of a research group looking at spatial data in health applications. We have a focus on tropical disease epidemiology but also look at wider spatial statistical health research.
Richard Schuster
I am the Director of Spatial Planning and Innovation at the Nature Conservancy of Canada and an Adjunct Research Professor at Carleton University, studying the ecological impacts of human activities and develop novel techniques to prioritize conservation areas and strategies. I have a theoretical and applied background in quantitative ecology and statistics and spatial big data analysis. I develop novel analytical tools for researchers and other practitioners to explore and use in conservation planning and management.
Yuan Shang
Dr. Yuan Shang works on Alzheimer's Disease (AD) at the University of Arizona. He combines any potential methods and data to search potential therapeutic opportunities for AD. He is an expert on omics data analysis, multi-omics integrations, network-based pattern recognition, and machine learning-based biomarker discoveries.
Yilun Shang
I am an Associate Professor in Computer and Information Sciences at Northumbria. I received my PhD degree in Mathematics from Shanghai Jiao Tong University. My research interest is in complex networks and systems.
Michael Simon
Associate Professor, Institute of Nursing Science, Department of Public Health, University of Basel.
Osama Sohaib
Dr Osama Sohaib is a Lecturer at the Faculty of Engineering and Information Technology, University of Technology Sydney. His research interest areas include information systems modelling, e-Services, Human-Computer Interaction (HCI) and Applied Machine Learning.
