Designed to enrich teaching and research at the university, the Queen카지노 게임 컬렉션s National Scholars (QNS) program has been bringing outstanding, early-career academics to Queen카지노 게임 컬렉션s since 1985.

This year, five new faculty members will arrive on campus as Queen카지노 게임 컬렉션s National Scholars, in fields of study from precision molecular medicine to African American gender history to computational neuroeconomics.

카지노 게임 컬렉션The QNS program is an important initiative supporting our faculty renewal efforts, with a particular focus on newly-developing fields of knowledge,카지노 게임 컬렉션 says Teri Shearer, Deputy Provost (Academic Operations and Inclusion), who co-chairs the QNS advisory committee. 카지노 게임 컬렉션The program is also an excellent opportunity to reinforce the university카지노 게임 컬렉션s commitment to diversity and inclusion through its recruitment efforts.카지노 게임 컬렉션

The 2018 QNS are:

Carolyn Prouse 카지노 게임 컬렉션 Queen카지노 게임 컬렉션s National Scholar in Urban Economic Geography
Faculty of Arts and Science

Dr. Prouse카지노 게임 컬렉션s research focuses on critical urban post-colonial geographies in South America; her work inhabits an exciting space that combines critical economic geography methodologies to explore issues around economic uncertainty, feminism, and racism. Dr. Prouse has a well-established teaching portfolio and is capable of developing and delivering new and interesting topics to students. She was awarded her PhD in 2017 from the 카지노게임사이트 of British Columbia and, most recently, held a SSHRC Postdoctoral Fellowship at the 카지노게임사이트 of Toronto.

Faculty of Arts and Science, Faculty of Health Sciences

Dr. Capicciotti카지노 게임 컬렉션s research focuses on identification and chemo-enzymatic synthesis of molecules (glycoconjugates: protein- and lipid-bound carbohydrates) that are crucial to a vast array of cellular recognition processes impacting human health and disease. The methodologies she has already developed, and those she plans to advance at Queen카지노 게임 컬렉션s, are highly pertinent to the fields of disease biomarker discovery and modern biologic pharmaceutical design, both of which are primary goals of personalized medicine. She arrives at Queen카지노 게임 컬렉션s from the 카지노게임사이트 of Georgia.

Ashwini VasanthakumarAshwini Vasanthakumar 카지노 게임 컬렉션 Queen카지노 게임 컬렉션s National Scholar in Legal and Political Philosophy
Faculty of Law

Dr. Vasanthakumar카지노 게임 컬렉션s research bridges law, philosophy, and politics. It is both theoretical and planted in the real world of lived experience and policy compromise. Her research focuses on migrants and migrant communities, exploring broader contexts of community membership, citizenship, allegiance, and transitional justice from the perspective of postcolonial states and migrant and other marginalized communities. Her most recent project seeks to understand the rights and duties of diaspora communities: in relation to each other, to compatriots remaining in their countries of origin, to victims and perpetrators of atrocities, and to their adopted countries. She arrives at Queen카지노 게임 컬렉션s from King카지노 게임 컬렉션s College London in England.

Laila HaidaraliLaila Haidarali 카지노 게임 컬렉션 Queen카지노 게임 컬렉션s National Scholar in African American Gender History
Faculty of Arts and Science

Dr. Haidarali카지노 게임 컬렉션s research is broadly concerned with race, gender, and representation in the study of African American women in 20th-century U.S. history. She engages the feminist politics of beauty to examine how mass-media representations and women카지노 게임 컬렉션s self-styling efforts reflected one strand of civil rights activism that developed throughout the interwar decades. Dr. Haidarali카지노 게임 컬렉션s work focuses on the rise of a beauty ideal that was defined by women카지노 게임 컬렉션s brown complexions; she queries how and why an ideal of brown-skin beauty accrued heightened cultural currency during the era of African America카지노 게임 컬렉션s mass modernization. She arrives from the 카지노게임사이트 of Essex in England.

[Anita Tusche]Anita Tusche 카지노 게임 컬렉션 Queen카지노 게임 컬렉션s National Scholar in Computational Neuroeconomics
Faculty of Arts and Science

Dr. Tusche카지노 게임 컬렉션s area of research interest is computational neuroscience with a focus on social cognition and decision-making. Her work seeks to disentangle computations that are generic to decision카지노 게임 컬렉션making, specialized for social cognition, and their interaction. The ultimate goal of this research is to develop a neurally카지노 게임 컬렉션informed cognitive model of social decision카지노 게임 컬렉션making that enables targeted, process카지노 게임 컬렉션specific modulations to foster prosocial, healthy, and sustainable behaviours. Her research uses a highly-interdisciplinary approach that utilizes insights and methodological tools of psychology, behavioral economics, neuroscience (with a focus on functional magnetic resonance imaging, fMRI), and computational modeling (machine learning techniques, drift diffusion modeling). Dr. Tusche arrives at Queen카지노 게임 컬렉션s from the California Institute of Technology.

The program provides $100,000 annually for five years for each QNS and is intended to attract outstanding early and mid-career researchers to Queen카지노 게임 컬렉션s.

Principal Daniel Woolf has identified faculty renewal as a high priority for reinvestment by the university in support of the academic mission. The five-year renewal plan will see 200 new faculty hired, which nearly doubles the hiring pace of the past six years and will result in approximately 10 net new hires per year.

Faculty renewal supports Queen카지노 게임 컬렉션s commitment to diversity and inclusion by giving the university the opportunity to proactively seek representation from equity-seeking groups such as women, people with disabilities, Indigenous Peoples, and racialized individuals. Faculty renewal also facilitates the building of Queen카지노 게임 컬렉션s current areas of research strength, as well as developing newly-identified emerging research priorities.  The program directly supports the objectives outlined in the Academic Plan, the Strategic Research Plan, and various other institutional planning documents.
