</span></strong><span style="font-family:'Arial','sans-serif'; font-size:10pt">is an academic psychologist and writer. Described as "a brilliant feminist critic of the neurosciences", the Guardian suggested that her recent book, Delusions of gender: The real
science behind sex differences, "could have far-reaching consequences as significant as The Female Eunuch." She is currently a Senior Research Associate at the Centre for Agency, Values & Ethics at Macquarie University, and an Honorary Research Fellow at
the Department of Psychological Sciences at the University of Melbourne. Keynote on Saturday, 3 Dec; see more about Cordelia at http://www.cordeliafine.com/</span>

</span></strong><span style="font-family:'Arial','sans-serif'; font-size:10pt">research passions are social justice and the nurturance of children. At the macro-social level this means focus on public policy and the feminization of poverty; at the meso-level,
on cultural exclusion and silencing of children and trauma; at the individual clinical level focus on trauma recovery and protection and recovery from violence. Her experiences as academic, clinician and human drove her most recent publication Human Life
Matters: a documentation of global erosion of human rights, and particularly those of children, with specific focus on Australia. Keynote on Sunday, 4 Dec; see more about Katie at http://curtin.academia.edu/KatieThomas/Papers</span></li></ul>
