Welcome to the next in our #AcademicintheSpotlight series that promotes social scientists doing innovative research that you really ought to be aware of.

This week is the turn of @Clare_Rice_ who works on the politics of Northern Ireland, power-sharing and identity.

Clare grew up in a border region in Northern Ireland and these experiences, along with her time working in the @niassembly, have shaped her research on governance and law in Northern Ireland.

Here Clare explains her work.

She is part of the @ESRC's @performidentity project which explores how changes in the way in which Northern Ireland is governed, and the constitutional implications of Brexit, are shaping Northern Irish society.
