Adam W Potter
Research Physiologist, US Army Research Institute of Environmental Medicine (USARIEM).
Part-time faculty, School of Science, Technology, Engineering, & Math (STEM), American Public University System (APUS).
Research portfolio spans across the applied sciences, from thermal manikin testing, to the cutting-edge of product development (computer-based decision aids, wireless communications, and wearable sensors). Current scientific work areas include: 1) individualized mathematical modeling of thermoregulatory responses to clothing, environment, activities, with the inclusion of components for rest and recovery, 2) studies of metabolic costs over complex terrain, 3) real-time assessments of ground reaction forces and energy demands during locomotion and load carriage, and 4) innovative approaches to data management and the application of mathematics in integrative physiology.

Marc-Antoine Sani
Marco obtained his PhD from the University of Umeå (Sweden) and the European institute of chemistry and biology (France) in 2008. His field of expertise is biophysics with special interest in solid-state and DNP NMR spectroscopy. In particular, his focus is to develop in situ techniques to study living cells and to elucidate the role of membrane lipids in the molecular mechanism of diseases. He is an editor for ANZMAGazine, Bio-protocol and Protein and Peptide Letters.
Yosuke Senju
Dr. Yosuke Senju received his BS in Physics from Tohoku University. He obtained his PhD in Physics from the Department of Physics, Graduate School of Science, Tohoku University, where he studied actin cytoskeleton and myosin motor protein in membrane dynamics. He studied lipid–protein interactions as a postdoc and an assistant professor at the University of Tokyo, and as a postdoc at University of Helsinki.
He is currently a lecturer at the Research Institute for Interdisciplinary Science at Okayama University.
His research focuses on membrane–cytoskeleton interface to understand lipid–protein interactions using biophysical techniques and structural biology.
