Elena Seiradake
Fellow & Tutor in Biochemistry; Professor in Molecular BiologyElena joined the Oxford University Biochemistry Department in 2014 as an independent group leader to study the structure and function of cell surface receptors in neural and vascular development.
A major breakthrough in her laboratory revealed that the adhesion GPCR ‘Latrophilin’ forms large structured assemblies in the presence of two other cell surface receptors ‘FLRT’ and ‘Unc5’. Depending on the cellular context, distinct super-complexes with unique functional properties are formed. Elena’s long-term aim is to understand the functions of distinct receptor-ligand complexes through a detailed knowledge of their structures and signalling properties during neural and vascular development of the brain.

Dean Sheppard
Departmental LecturerI am the Departmental Lecturer in Physical & Theoretical Chemistry.
I teach Chemistry at Somerville in addition to two other colleges, Lady Margaret Hall, and St Peter’s. Previously I held Lectureships at Magdalen, Merton and New.
I studied for my MChem degree at Magdalen College (2008-2012) before moving to New College for a DPhil in Physical and Theoretical Chemistry under the supervision of Professor Stuart Mackenzie, which I completed in 2016.
My position involves teaching all aspects of the undergraduate Physical Chemistry course, from Prelims (1st Year) to Final Honours School (3rd Year). I hold tutorials for small groups of students where we discuss the lecture course material in more detail. We also meet in larger groups for problems classes to cover the more numerical aspects of each topic, and I offer thematic revision classes to prepare each group of students for their respective exams. In the Chemistry department, I provide synoptic revision lectures to all years and examine the first year Physical Chemistry Prelims paper.
My DPhil research was concerned with the photochemical spin dynamics of proteins, suggested to be the basis of the magnetic sense in some animals. It involved the development of a range of highly sensitive optical cavity-enhanced techniques to detect very small changes in reactivity caused by an external magnetic field.

Steven Simon
Professorial Fellow; Professor of Theoretical and Condensed Matter PhysicsProfessor Simon is a physicist interested in quantum effects and how they are manifested in phases of matter.
He has recently been studying phases of matter known as “topological phases” that are invariant under smooth deformations of space-time. He is also interested in whether such phases of matter can be used for quantum information processing and quantum computation. Before coming to Oxford, Dr. Simon was a research director at Bell Laboratories, an industrial research laboratory.

Graeme Smith
Lecturer in PhysicsI have been a lecturer at Somerville since 2001, but I first came to Oxford in 1993 to read Physics as an undergraduate (at Oriel College).
In 1997 I started work on my DPhil under the supervision of Professor Dame Carole Jordan (who retired from teaching at Somerville several years ago), having worked with her on my fourth year undergraduate project. I started teaching at Somerville directly after completing my thesis.Most of my research, including my thesis, has concerned a long-standing problem in understanding the brightness of helium emission lines seen in the ultraviolet spectrum of the solar atmosphere. My interest in astrophysics dates back to a young age, but it was rekindled by a look at Kepler’s laws in A-level physics. It was probably that spark that inspired me to apply for my first degree (although the influence of my long time love of science fiction should not be underestimated).
Francesca Southerden
Fellow & Tutor in Italian; Associate Professor of ItalianMy main area of research is in medieval Italian literature, particularly the works of Dante and Petrarch and the relationship between language and desire in lyric poetry.
I am currently working on a book entitled Dante and Petrarch in the Garden of Language which posits the garden as a privileged space for thinking about Dante and Petrarch’s relationship to language and the nature of desire and subjectivity that are expressed through it. I am the author of Landscapes of Desire in the Poetry of Vittorio Sereni (Oxford: Oxford University Press, 2012) and, with Manuele Gragnolati, of Possibilities of Lyric: Reading Petrarch in Dialogue, with an Epilogue by Antonella Anedda Angioy (Berlin: ICI Berlin Press, 2021). Together with Manuele Gragnolati and Elena Lombardi, I have recently co-edited The Oxford Handbook of Dante (Oxford: Oxford University Press, 2021); and am also co-editor, with Manuele Gragnolati, Tristan Kay and Elena Lombardi, of Desire in Dante and the Middle Ages (Oxford: Legenda, 2012). I have published several essays and articles on Dante and Petrarch and have others in progress. Alongside my research in medieval Italian literature, I have a strong interest in critical theory, including most recently affect theory and ecocritical perspectives.
I am Associate Professor of Medieval Italian at the University of Oxford, and Fellow of Somerville College. I also hold the post of Lecturer in Italian at St Catherine’s College and at Lady Margaret Hall. I previously held the post of Assistant Professor of Italian and Medieval-Renaissance Studies at Wellesley College, MA (2010-2016).
A list of publications can be found on my departmental page.

Charles Spence
Fellow & Tutor in Experimental Psychology; Professor of Experimental Psychology and Head of the Crossmodal Research LaboratoryCharles Spence is Somerville’s Fellow and Tutor in Experimental Psychology, and the head of the Crossmodal Research Laboratory.
He is interested in how people perceive the world around them. In particular, how our brains manage to process the information from each of our different senses (such as smell, taste, sight, hearing, and touch) to form the extraordinarily rich multisensory experiences that fill our daily lives. His research focuses on how a better understanding of the human mind will lead to the better design of multisensory foods, products, interfaces, and environments in the future. His work calls for a radical new way of examining and understanding the senses that has major implications for the way in which we design everything from household products to mobile phones, and from the food we eat to the places in which we work and live.
Over the years, Charles has consulted for a number of multinational companies advising on various aspects of multisensory design, packaging, and branding. He has also conducted research on human-computer interaction issues on the Crew Work Station on the European Space Shuttle. Charles and his group are currently working on problems associated with the design of foods that maximally stimulate the senses (together with Heston Blumenthal, chef of The Fat Duck restaurant in Bray). His group also has a very active line of research on the design of auditory, tactile, and multisensory warning signals for drivers and other interface operators (together with Toyota). Charles is also interested in the effect of the indoor environment on mood, well-being, and performance (together with ICI).
Charles has published over 500 articles in top-flight scientific journals over the last 15 years. Charles has been awarded the 10th Experimental Psychology Society Prize, the British Psychology Society: Cognitive Section Award, the Paul Bertelson Award, recognizing him as the young European Cognitive Psychologist of the Year, and, most recently, the prestigious Friedrich Wilhelm Bessel Research Award from the Alexander von Humboldt Foundation in Germany, not to mention the 2008 IG Nobel prize for nutrition, for his groundbreaking work on the ‘sonic crisp’!

Fiona Stafford FBA, FRSE
Fellow & Tutor in English Literature; Professor of English Language and LiteratureIn Somerville, I teach and oversee students at all levels, from Freshers encountering Victorian Literature for the first time to Finalists working on their dissertations or revising for their exams.
Having worked with students from Admissions interview to graduation, I am always pleased to hear of their progress post-Somerville, too.
In the English Faculty, I usually give lectures on Romantic Literature. I frequently give public lectures to general audiences on aspects of English and Scottish Literature, as well as on the cultural importance of Trees and Flowers. I supervise MSt courses and dissertations on Romantic Literature, Place and Nature Writing. Doctoral students, whom I’ve supervised, have worked on topics ranging from Wordsworth, Coleridge, Cowper, Keats, Clare, Byron, Austen, Hogg and the Shelleys to Romantic Theatre, Travel Writing, Romantic Children’s Literature, Eighteenth-century novels, Irish and Scottish Poetry. As chair of the Environmental Humanities Network at TORCH, I am part of a team promoting work from different disciplines in Place, Nature, and the Environment. We work closely with the Oxford/National Trust partnership and the Heritage network at TORCH and, in 2019, organised a workshop on ‘Post-Conflict Landscape’. With Professor Seamus Perry, I also convene the long-running Romantic Research Seminar, which meets regularly throughout term to welcome speakers from other institutions as well as discussing papers from established and early career scholars in Oxford.
I regularly participate in Radio programmes, including Radio 4’s Natural Histories and In Our Time, and have written and delivered or contributed to several series for Radio 3’s ‘The Essay’, including ‘The Meaning of Trees’, ‘The Meaning of Flowers’, ‘The Meaning of Beaches’, ‘Robinson Crusoe’, ‘Forests’. In 2018, I delivered a walk-and-talk documentary, ‘Keats Goes North’, following in the footsteps of John Keats. As a member of the Atlantic Archipelago Research Consortium (AARC), which is committed to exploring the local distinctiveness and rich cultural heritage of the coastal regions of Britain and Ireland, I have contributed to events, conferences and collections, including the Unencompassing the Archipelago Conference at Somerville in 2015. I enjoy working with artists and art historians and have contributed to Calum Colvin’s art books, Jacobites by Name and The Magic Box and Tate Britain’s ‘In Focus’ project on William Dyce’s painting, Pegwell Bay. I have longstanding research interests in Ossian, Austen, Burns, Wordsworth, Coleridge, Clare, Keats, the Shelleys, Byron, Cowper, Heaney, Carson, literature of the Romantic period, place and nature writing (old and new), Scottish poetry (post 1700), dialogues between English, Irish and Scottish literature, literature and the visual arts, contemporary poetry. As well as academic writing, I write on place and nature for wider audiences and in 2019 my play, The Dimlight Hours was performed at the Edinburgh Fringe Festival.
I am currently writing volume V of The Oxford History of English Literature: The Romantic Period, 1785-1830 and a book on Place, and editing, with Nicholas Allen, an anthology of the literary magazine, Archipelago.
