Dr Juliette Young is a social scientist based at the (CEH) in Edinburgh. Her enthusiasm for ecology was kindled through helping to rehabilitate chimpanzees in Sierra Leone, exploring the illegal trade in tiger parts in India, and chasing fig wasps in the Cook Islands.

This experience combined with her early research at CEH led her to realise that people with differing, often conflicting, perceptions of nature and its management were central to conservation outcomes. As a result she did a PhD in political science at the University of East Anglia to understand how people view the natural world and to develop sustainable solutions to complex problems.

Within the context of understanding the social dimensions of nature conservation, she researches public attitudes towards biodiversity, the communication between scientists and decision-makers, and human conflicts over nature conservation.
She has contributed to a 聽and a range of .

The Centre for Ecology and Hydrology focusses on integrated research in terrestrial and freshwater ecosystems and their interaction with the atmosphere.

Simon Lester is head gamekeeper at Langholm Moor Demonstration Project in Scotland. He leads a team of gamekeepers employed to manage the moor, which involves work such as heather burning, bracken control and legal predator control under the terms of the Scottish Natural Heritage's Open General Licence.

Hen harriers were first recorded at Langholm in the 1980s and for several years there were between 2 and 5 pairs.聽Hen harriers have had an incredible breeding season at Langholm with a total number of 12 nests (12 females, 6 monogamous and 3 bigamous males).

10 of these nests were successful and fledged 47 young (brood sizes between three and six), which is more than in all previous breeding seasons since the start of the project combined, the other two nests were deserted during incubation.

Professor Bill Sutherland is聽. He is聽interested in applying ecological data and models to understand conservation problems.

This can involve field work, use of existing data or purely theoretical problems. He is especially interested in bird population ecology as well as the impacts of agriculture of biodiversity.

Recently he has become intrigued by understanding how decisions are made. This has involved horizon scanning to identify future issues, collation of evidence to determine which interventions are effective and then a rigorous means of weighting the evidence to guide policy and practice.
