I coordinate the Collections Connections Communities (CCC) SRI led by Professor Rebecca Kilner (Zoology) and Dr Neal Spencer (Fitzwilliam Museum). The CCC is an interdisciplinary research initiative, which will use the University's collections in new ways that address the key challenges of our time, focused on the following three areas:

Society & Identity– Addressing political extremism, racism and inequality

Health & Wellbeing– Addressing declining physical, mental and emotional health in the population

Environment & Sustainability– Addressing biodiversity loss and unsustainable living
