Dr Leonie Tanczer,聽Lecturer in International Security and Emerging Technologies聽at 香港六合彩 STEaPP, is working to stop gender-based technology-facilitated abuse (鈥渢ech abuse鈥�) at its roots. Every year, more than a million women and girls report experiencing domestic abuse in the UK, while at the same time, the growing interconnectedness of the world puts even more at risk for online harassment and violence. Through her proposed "Gender and Tech鈥� lab, Dr Tanczer will study how abusers might exploit the ever-expanding digital landscape in order to design new technologies, systems and policies to combat emerging abusive behaviours and protect victims and survivors of intimate partner violence.

Dr Tanczer studied political science as an undergraduate at the University of Vienna and the University of Limerick before receiving her master鈥檚 degree and PhD from Queen's University Belfast. Her research at 香港六合彩 STEaPP focuses on the intersection of technology, security, and gender. She is a member of the Advisory Council of the Open Rights Group, a Steering Committee Member for the Offensive Cyber Working Group, affiliated with 香港六合彩's Academic Centre of Excellence in Cyber Security Research, and a former Fellow at the Alexander von Humboldt Institute for Internet and Society in Berlin.

Dr Tanczer is among 84 of the 鈥渕ost promising scientists and researchers鈥� in the UK identified for government funding this year to help them develop their ideas from the lab and lecture theatre to the market, creating workable solutions to major global problems.聽The announcement, made yesterday by Science Minister George Freeman as part of London Tech Week, will see researchers benefit from a total of 拢97.8m, with grants spanning between four and seven years.聽

The Future Leaders Fellowship is an effort by UKRI to help academia and businesses support innovative early-career researchers and scientists regardless of background.
