SUMMARY:HODA-A™ - Dr Jo Abbott
DESCRIPTION:Dr Jo Abbott is a global researcher\, educator and integrative clinician with a background in clinical anatomy\, functional medicine\, biomechanics and pain science. Her work is shaped by decades of clinical practice\, academic study\, athletic experience and real-world problem solving. \nHer original background in electro-mechanical engineering gave her a systems-based way of thinking: how forces transfer\, how structures fail\, how signals degrade\, and how complex systems can be redesigned. That lens now informs the way she assesses movement\, pain\, recovery\, clinical reasoning and human performance.

SUMMARY:Update on the Largest Genetic Study of ME - Sonya Chowdhury & Professor Chris Ponting
DESCRIPTION:Sonya is a driven\, ambitious CEO of UK health charity Action for M.E. and Non-Executive Director for social housing and house-building organisation\, Curo. Sonya was named in the top 100 most influential women in the West in 2018\, and has devoted her career to improving the lives of children and adults now while working to secure change for the future. Sonya started her career in statutory social work before moving to the third sector\, where she has worked in management roles for the last 15 years\, including in a senior role with national children’s charity Barnardo’s\, prior to her current CEO role. Sonya has forged collaboration at national and international levels having previously led the government-funded Family Strategic Partnership\, which included co-designing and facilitating Innovating Futures\, a programme for charity leaders to increase income and reduce dependency on government funding\, and currently chairs the International Alliance for M.E. and the Management Group for the £3.2m DecodeME study\, an M.E. genetics study delivered in partnership with the University of Edinburgh and a Patient and Public Involvement Group. \nProfessor Chris Ponting is Chair of Medical Bioinformatics and a Principal Investigator at the MRC Human Genetics Unit\, Institute of Genetics and Cancer. Chris started his research in particle physics before moving via biophysics to bioinformatics and genomics. Aside from one year at the National Centre for Biotechnology Information (NIH\, Bethesda\, MD)\, he pursued his research at the University of Oxford before moving to Edinburgh in 2016. His research group has made substantial contributions to protein science\, evolutionary biology\, genetics and genomics. Early in his career\, he discovered many important protein domain families. He then provided the first evolutionary analyses for mammalian genomes whilst leading protein analysis teams for the human and mouse genome sequencing projects. More recently\, his research established that 8.2% of the human genome is constrained\, and thus is likely functional.

SUMMARY:Soma Breathing - Krishna Ruparelia
DESCRIPTION:Krishna Ruparelia’s journey into yoga and wellbeing began during university\, where she struggled with anxiety\, self-doubt and the pressures of academic life. A recommendation to try yoga became a turning point\, providing calm and resilience during challenging times. \nFollowing the sudden loss of her father\, Krishna began a deeper exploration of spirituality\, ancient wisdom and personal growth. Alongside a successful 25-year career working with organisations including Jaguar Land Rover\, Warwick Business School\, Nivea\, Santander and HSBC\, she delivered leadership and coaching programmes around the world while continuing to deepen her yoga practice. \nKrishna is qualified in 500 hours of yoga training with the British Wheel of Yoga\, as well as Yin Yoga and SOMA Breath Teacher Training. Drawing on both her professional experience and personal journey through grief\, stress\, health challenges and relationship breakdowns\, she has developed a powerful approach to managing emotions and building lasting resilience. \nToday\, Krishna’s mission is to help others discover greater balance\, resilience and wellbeing through yoga\, breathwork and self-discovery.
