Our researchers

Our researchers are motivated by a vision of a better world.

They are people who devote many hours to investigating concepts, gathering evidence, and analysing and synthesising findings to make ground-breaking discoveries and contribute genuinely to public good.
 
Each one of them has their own story about what inspires them, and how their work impacts the world.
You’ll find some of these stories here.
