Jane Kilby joined the University of Salford in 2000, having completed a PhD in Women’s Studies at Lancaster University. Her postgraduate studies have left Jane with an enduring commitment to understanding violence and its impact; and equal commitment to the importance of interdisciplinarity. She struggles, however, to know which presents the greatest challenge.
