Leo/Leah Richens

Mx, University of Cambridge

I am an undergraduate studying Law at the University of Cambridge. I am particularly interested in the role gender plays within different domestic legal systems, and how these structures interact with gender-queer individuals. My research explores the ways in which legal recognition of all trans people could be achieved, and the practical impact different structures of recognition could have for the lives of queer people.

Frederick Robertson

Student in Philosophy, Politics and Economics, Durham University

Hi I'm Freddie, a student in PPE at Durham University with particular interests in British Political history and the development of its constitution.  I am excited to express this in my research project, focusing on the impact of formalised political parties on voter partisanship and the incumbency effect. Whilst contributing to the development of an existing dataset containing parliamentary election data from 1832 onwards, I am aiming to perform data-driven alaysis to evaluate Britain's shift from a candidate-based political tradition towards the dominance of party labels. Outside of my studies, I am a keen church bellringer, an avid reader, and enjoy exploring new places.
Hannah Bush

Student & Research Scholar, Durham University

Hello! I am a first year undergraduate student at Durham University studying Modern European Languages and Cultures, including advanced Spanish and ab initio Italian. I believe that the intersection between languages and culture, politics and peacebuilding is hugely important in a multicultural but increasingly divided world. I am therefore passionate about using my skills for good, especially through my research project into ethical and compassionate immigration policy.  I'm really excited to work alongside the 2026 scholars! 
Lauren Landowski

Natural Sciences Student, University of Cambridge

Hi! I'm Lauren, a first year Biology student at Cambridge, with a particular interest in Biochemistry and Physiology. This has inspired my LiA, looking into how the Social Determinants of Health are being addressed locally in Cambridge by The Red Hen Project - a local charity working to support families experiencing hardship to raise happy, health, and independent children. Working alongside the charity has exposed me to the stark health inequalities that exist even within Cambridge, strengthening my passion for public health and inspiring me to pursue a career focused on improving outcomes for children, families, and communities.

Rosalind Howell

Laidlaw scholar and PBS student, University of Cambridge

My name is Rosalind and I'm a first year student in psychology at the University of Cambridge. I am particularly interested in the interection between physical and mental health and how psychoneurological processes can impact somatic functions. Another major interest of mine is the maintenance of mental health recovery, and how post-acute care in communities and systems can support the longevity of recovery and prevent relapse.

Leni Klöcker

Student, Cambridge University

I'm a first year at Cambridge studying Sociology, Anthropology and Political Science which means I am yet to settle on only one topic for my research project, Luckily this summer I will firstly be working with "Experience Cambridge" for my Leadership in Action placement, trying to make information more accessible to people experiencing homelessness in the Cambridge area. In the context of this experience I am especially interested in learning more about alternative, possibly non-hierarchical forms of leadership so if you're research project/LiA placmement is somehow related to this topic I'd love to hear more about it!
