A window into the Amex's neighbourly Ivory Tower. My favourite successful applicant is the last one listed - I wonder if [MENTION=36]Titanic[/MENTION] was consulted...?
"We are delighted to announce funding for this year’s successful sabbatical applications.
The University’s annual Sabbatical Scheme is part of the Research and Enterprise Strategic Plan 2017-21. The scheme offers awards of up to £10,000 each to enable staff to take a period of sabbatical away from their substantive role at the University in order to undertake research and/or enterprise activity.
The sabbatical scheme for 2018/19 aims to support:
development of a high-quality proposal for substantive external research or enterprise funding to be submitted no later than the end of 2019
completion of a book or series of other substantial high-quality research publications or outputs at least one of which should be produced and in the public domain by June 2020 to be eligible for submission to REF 2021
development of a high-quality proposal for funding submitted to RCUK Global Challenges Research Fund (GCRF) no later than the end of 2019.
Congratulations to the successful academics who will be working on the following exciting projects:
Dr Matthew Adams (School of Applied Social Science) will prepare a monograph on the Anthropocene, a concept describing the unprecedented global impacts of human activity, threatening the survival and flourishing of countless habitats and species, including our own.
Professor Matthew Cornford (School of Art) will produce a photographic record of 26 art school sites in North West England, towards an exhibition in Liverpool in late 2018. This project is also supported by Arts Council England.

Dr Aristea Fotopoulou (School of Media) will pursue an international visiting fellowship abroad, developing manuscripts for monograph Feminist Data Studies and special issue Digital Culture Meets Data: Critical Perspective.

Dr Olu Jenzen (School of Media) will visit the Centre on Social Movement Studies (COSMOS) at the Scuola Normale Superiore in Florence, to pursue her work on digital activism and sexualities research.
Dr Rachel Marks (School of Education) will complete a review of the current state of play of Mathematics education in the UK, identifying strength, gaps, and areas to focus further studies or development.

Dr Adaeze Okoye (Brighton Business School) will pursue research in modern slavery in supply chains, in African business ethics, and in corporate social responsibility.
Dr Sarah Purnell (School of Environment and Technology), will publish the findings of recent collaborative projects in the fields of environmental biology, water reuse and predictive catchment mapping and modelling.
Dr Anita Rupprecht (School of Humanities) will bring together a body of her existing research in a series of publication addressing the history and cultural representation of transatlantic slavery.
Dr Catherine Theodosius (School of Health Sciences) will pursue the publication of her research on patient-focussed emotional labour, collegial emotional labour, and retention in nursing.
