Luis G. C. Pacheco
Dr. Luis Pacheco is currently an Associate Professor of Biotechnology (Molecular Biology) at the Universidade Federal da Bahia (UFBA), in Salvador-BA, Brazil. During 2019, he has also been working as a Visiting Researcher at the Brigham and Women’s Hospital / Harvard Medical School, Boston-MA, USA. He received his 2010 PhD in Biochemistry and Molecular Biology from a leading university in Brazil, the Universidade Federal de Minas Gerais (UFMG), with an international split-site scholarship period (2008-2009) at the University of Warwick, in the United Kingdom. His research is focused on using functional genomics and synthetic biology approaches for development of novel genetic tools with broad applications in biotechnology, particularly in the fields of diagnostics of infectious diseases and therapeutics of inflammatory diseases.
Miriam D. Hubinger
Professor of Food Engineering, School of Food Engineering, University of Campinas, São Paulo, Brazil. My main research areas are microencapsulation, membrane processes and edible coatings
Antonio Salas
I am a Professor at the University of Santiago de Compostela (Galicia, Spain). During the last few years I have been investigating in various fields of biomedical research, such as the analysis of genetic susceptibility to complex and common diseases (breast cancer, schizophrenia, autism, etc.), rare diseases (Wilson's disease, congenital ichthyosis, mitochondriopathies, etc.), bioinformatics / biostatistics (regarding HapMap, 1000 Genomes, statistical procedures in epidemiology and genetics, etc.), molecular / archeo-genetic anthropology, and forensic genetics (population sub-structure, interpretation (statistics) of the test Medical-legal research haplotype markers, etc).
I am the head of a consolidated research group, GenPoB (Population Genetics in Biomedicine), based at the Health Research Institute (IDIS) of Santiago de Compostela (Galicia, Spain), that is in turn integrated into the Genetics and Systems Biology group.
For more than a decade I have been heavily involved in a variety of projects related to genomics and other fields of -omic ’sciences (e.g. transcriptomic, epigenomic), in complex pediatric diseases, infectology and vaccinomics.
Priya Ramesh Prabhu
Priya Ramesh Prabhu is a Postdoctoral research fellow in the Human Biology Division at Fred Hutchinson Cancer Center, Seattle, WA. She is an immunologist with focus on Human papillomavirus (HPV) vaccination. Her expertise is in evaluation of vaccine-induced immune responses. She completed her PhD from Rajiv Gandhi Center for Biotechnology, Kerala, India, working in a Phase IV clinical trial comparing the efficacy of 2 vs 3 doses of quadrivalent HPV vaccine among Indian girls.
Ryan Christopher Sullivan
Associate Professor of Chemistry, and Mechanical Engineering at Carnegie Mellon University, with a courtesy appointment in Civil and Environmental Engineering. He is also a faculty member in the Center for Atmospheric Particle Studies. Hon.B.Sc. in Chemistry from the University of Toronto, Ph.D. in Chemistry from the University of California, San Diego. Before moving to Carnegie Mellon University in 2012 he completed his postdoctoral research in Atmospheric Science at Colorado State University. Recipient of a Faculty Early Career Development (CAREER) award from the National Science Foundation, and the National Academy of Science’s Cozzarelli Prize.
Developing laser-based analytical techniques for real-time analysis of individual aerosol particle composition. These include laser ablation single-particle mass spectrometry, aerosol optical tweezers, and microfluidic devices for ice nucleation research. The multi-phase chemical evolution of biomass burning aerosol from wood smoke is a major current focus. Experimental studies include the alteration of the ice nucleation properties of smoke particles induced by chemical aging; and the activation of photo-labile chlorinated gases from heterogeneous reactions of nitrogen oxides with smoke aerosol. Recently active in evaluating the kinetics and biosafety of catalysts for sustainable ultra-dilute oxidation catalysis.
Łukasz Szeleszczuk
Dr. Łukasz Szeleszczuk is a Professor at the Medical University of Warsaw. His main areas of interest are DFT calculations, especially for the solid state systems, and solid state NMR spectroscopy.
