  • Global Research Training Programme Participants 2018 ‐ 2019
    GLOBAL RESEARCH TRAINING PROGRAMME PARTICIPANTS 2018 ‐ 2019 Deepti Adlakha Dr Deepti Adlakha is a Lecturer at the School of Natural and Built Environment and an affiliate member at the Centre for Excellence in Public Health‐Northern Ireland, Queens University‐Belfast. She has a background in architecture and urban design and completed her PhD from the Brown School, Prevention Research Centre, Washington University in St. Louis, United States. Deepti’s teaching and research focuses on pathways between urbanization and health and she is passionate about promoting healthy, livable cities. Her research focuses on generating, translating and scaling up evidence for reducing environmental health and social disparities, particularly factors affecting prevention, control and mitigation of chronic and acute non‐communicable diseases in populations. Her interests lie in understanding relationships between the built environment and health; documenting and improving geospatial health disparities; and using and improving measures to quantify obesity‐related behaviors (physical activity, diet) and relevant exposures (social and built environment) using GIS, accelerometry, GPS, geostatistical approaches, and other new technologies. Louise Atkinson Louise is a newly appointed Lecturer of Parasitology in the School of Biological Sciences/Institute of Global Food Security, QUB. She has completed both her undergraduate degree (BSc Biological Sciences) and PhD (Molecular Parasitology) at QUB, and spent her Postdoctoral Research career (2010‐18) working on parasitic nematode biology and drug target discovery in the QUB Parasitology Research Group. Her research hinges on the identification, validation, and development of novel approaches for the diagnosis and treatment of parasitic worms (nematodes) which inflict debilitating Neglected Tropical Disease (NTDs) in >1 billion people globally.

  • Mapping Environmental Humanities Education in the Nordic Countries
    MAPPING ENVIRONMENTAL HUMANITIES EDUCATION IN THE NORDIC COUNTRIES Bringing Research in Green Humanities into Teaching (BRIGHT) network A network of 1 2 Why this report? The Environmental Humanities, an interdisciplinary field of scholarly inquiry which examines the junction of humans and nature through humanistic research approaches, has emerged as a major element in environmental-themed research in the Nordic Countries. Environmental Humanities (EnvHum) encompasses work done in environmental history, ecocriticism, environmental literature studies, posthuman studies, animal studies, environmental philosophy, and more. These are joined together in their common quest to understand the relationship between humans and the non-human world and the shaping of that relationship by culture, action, and thought. Our age is facing imminent environmental threats, including global climate change, escalating biodiversity loss, rapid natural resource extraction, and unjust distribution of environmental damage and pollution. EnvHum asks how we understand what it means to be human in these challenging times as well as how humanities can contribute to our understanding of the challenges. The Bringing Research in Green Humanities into Teaching (BRIGHT) network was established to build capacity in EnvHum humanities in the Nordic and Baltic countries by collaboratively exploring methods of integrating Environmental Humanities research into first (Bachelors) and second (Masters) level university teaching and building new cooperative regional teaching programs in environmental. BRIGHT was founded in 2018 as a Nordplus-funded network coordinated by Professor Dolly Jørgensen, University of Stavanger. Because environmental issues are a priority contemporary concern, we need green humanities research to be coupled to teaching. The network will create synergies and connections between the dispersed environmental humanities groups across the region and strengthen the integration of environmental humanities research into Nordic education.

  • Forecasting Long Memory Series Subject to Structural Change: a Two-Stage Approach

In the first step we estimate the fractional exponent and, applying the fractional differencing operator, we obtain the underlying weakly dependent series. In the second step, we perform the multi-step ahead forecasts for the weakly dependent series and obtain their long memory counterparts by applying the fractional cumulation operator. The methodology applies to stationary and nonstationary cases. Simulations and an application to seven time series provide evidence that the new methodology is more robust to structural change and yields good forecasting results. Keywords: Forecasting, Spurious Long Memory, Structural Change, Local Whittle 1. Introduction The issue of analysing economic and other series which possess hyperbolically decaying autocorrelations has long been of concern in the time series analysis litera- ture. The work of Granger(1980), Granger and Joyeux(1980) and Hosking(1981), among others, has been influential in the study and modelling of such long memory series; see Beran(1994) and Baillie(1996) for an extensive survey of this field.
