Dongming Li
Dongming Li is a Professor at the College of Life Sciences, Hebei Normal University. His research focuses on the mechanisms of how animals adjust their morphology, physiology, and behavior to respond to the changing (or extreme) environments in free-living animals, especially birds.
Julia Martín
Julia Martín obtained her Ph.D. in Chemistry in 2012 at University of Seville (Spain). She is Assistant Professor in the Department of Analytical Chemistry (University of Seville) since 2013. Her principal research interests fall into the three interrelated areas of environmental, analytical and water sciences. She is particularly interested in the development of new methodologies for the determination of majority and emerging pollutants in environmental and biological matrices. These methodologies are then applied to evaluate the occurrence and fate of pollutants to obtain information about their potential toxicological effects to the ecosystems. Her interest is also focused on the history of chemistry and on the methodological aspects of analytical science. She is a co-author of more than 50 publications in peer-reviewed journals, 20 book chapters, H-index 18 and 875 citation.
Enrique Mateos Naranjo
Assistant Professor of Plant Biology and Ecology, University of Seville (Spain). Past postdoctoral researcher activities at School of Biological Sciences (University of East Anglia, UK), Faculty of Biology (University Illes Balears, Spain) and Faculty of Agronomic Sciences (University Nacional de Rosario, Argentina). Past PhD student at University of Seville (Spain).
Nicolas Mazzella
My work focuses on analytical chemistry with the development of methods for the analysis of organic micropollutants. I am also interested in passive sampling techniques to characterise the exposure of aquatic organisms (microalgae, biofilms).
In addition, I am carrying out analytical developments in the field of lipidomics to propose biomarkers of toxic effects in aquatic plants and marine or freshwater fish.
Ralph Mead
I am an organic geochemist studying the fate and transport of anthropogenically and natural derived organic compounds in the Anthropocene.

Hope A Michelsen
Distinguished Member of the Technical Staff in the Combustion Research Facility at Sandia National Laboratories. A.B. in Chemistry from Dartmouth College, Ph.D. in Chemistry with a minor in Physics from Stanford University. Elected Fellow of the Optical Society (OSA).
My current research interests include developing and using optical and X-ray techniques for studying the chemistry of combustion-generated particles inside the combustor and their evolution after release into the atmosphere. My research experience includes gas-surface scattering experiments, atmospheric modeling, soot-formation studies, combustion-diagnostics development, atmospheric black-carbon measurements, and greenhouse-gas source attribution.
Jyoti Mittal
Dr. Jyoti Mittal is presently listed as 2018 Highly Cited Researcher (HCR) by Clarivate Analytics in the Crossfield section. Out of 10 Indian HCR of 2018, she is the only woman scientist receiving this distinction. She is presently working as Assistant Professor at Maulana Azad National Institute of Technology, Bhopal (India).

Monika Mortimer
Senior Researcher at the National Institute of Chemical Physics and Biophysics, Tallinn, Estonia. Research interests and experience include ecotoxicology, environmental effects of engineered nanomaterials, fate and transport of contaminants of emerging concern, and microbiology.
Mallikarjuna Nadagouda
Dr. Mallikarjuna N. Nadagouda received his Ph.D. from India in 2003. While earning his Ph.D., Dr. Nadagouda worked with professor Gopalakrishanan of the Indian Institute of Science (IISc) in Bangalore, India for two years. After obtaining his Ph.D., he worked for General Electric (GE) in Bangalore, India for two years before moving on to work with the late Professor Alan G. MacDiarmid (2000 Nobel Laureate in Chemistry) at the University of Texas at Dallas. Dr. Nadagouda went on to become an Oak Ridge Institute of Science and Education (ORISE) postdoctoral fellow at the United State Environmental Protection Agency’s (EPA) National Risk Management Research Laboratory (NRMRL), and subsequently achieved his current position as a Physical Scientist at NRMRL in Cincinnati, Ohio. He is also adjunct professor at Wright State University, Dayton, OH.
He has worked in the areas of nanomaterials and nanotechnology, analytical chemistry, green chemistry, polymer blends, solid coatings, solid state chemistry and drug delivery. He has received several Scientific and Technological Achievement Awards (STAA) from the EPA, including the National Risk Management Research Laboratory Goal 1 Award. He is a member of the editorial advisory board of several international journals, has published nearly 250 papers in reviewed journals with a citation index ~15700 (H index 60), and holds several patents.

Thiago Parente
Scientist in Public Health at the Laboratory of Functional Genomics and Bioinformatics at the Oswaldo Cruz Institute (IOC, Fiocruz), Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. Scientific coordinator of the Institutional Bioinformatics Platform. CNPq Level 2 Research Productivity Scholar (Genetics). Permanent professor at the Graduate program on Systems and Computational Biology IOC, Fiocruz. Graduated in Biological Sciences - Genetics major - from the Federal University of Rio de Janeiro (2006), with a Master's degree in Cell and Molecular Biology from the IOC (2008) and PhD in Biophysics from UFRJ (2012). Through high performance technologies for DNA sequencing and computational data analysis, I investigate the effects of pollution on fauna, using fish as model organisms, and their responses and genetic adaptations to pollutants, especially those involved in the xenobiotic biotransformation system.
