My CV and recent papers/presentations

USydney has a new SYSTEM for staff profiles: mine is at https://profiles.sydney.edu.au/luke.nottage. It expects academics now to update such profiles, rather than administrative staff as previously. The assumption is that providing an ORCID ID will automatically update publications, but what about forthcoming work or publications say in Japan (eg this paper on international arbitration, also being published in Japanese translation in JCA Jyanaru) or work in-press? The new USyd staff profile webpages also have no option simply to upload a full CV. So instead you can simply FIND MY CV HERE:

For convenience I also extract from that full CV (a) my main presentations over 2026, and (b) my publications this and next year/s (where full manuscripts are in press or basically completed):
