Krystyna Dąbrowska
Affiliation: Institute of Immunology and Experimental Therapy, Polish Academy of Sciences, Wrocław, Poland (Bacteriophage Laboratory).Position: professor.
Current field of interest: non-bactericidal effects of phages in mammals; i.e. phage molecular biology tools for studies of phage impact on immunological system and other physiological aspects in mammals.
Piotr Dąbrowski
I am an Associate Professor in the Department of Environmental Improvement, Warsaw University of Life Sciences. The influence of habitat factors (with special emphasis on light, drought, salt and PAH’ contamination etc.) on the status and the development of plants and unicellular organism is the basic interest that affected the scope of my research activity. In my career I focused on determination of photosynthetic apparatus responses by chlorophyll fluorescence (prompt fluorescence, delayed fluorescence) and gas exchange analysis.
Oluwaseun John Dada
Dr. Oluwaseun John Dada is Director of Research and Engineering within the NanoScale and Advanced Materials Lab at Signature EcoSystems Technologies.
He has worked over the past 8 years on NanoScale materials, electrochemistry, advanced materials manufacturing and applications, and over 10 years in Metallurgy and Aluminium Manufacturing.
Curtis Daehler
Professor in the School of Life Sciences at the University of Hawaiʻi at Mānoa. Research interests include invasive species, plant-animal interactions, population biology, island biology, conservation and biogeography.
Glenn S Daehn
Prof. Daehn has degrees in Materials Science and Engineering form Northwestern University (BS) and Stanford University (MS/PhD). He has been engaged in multiple industry and educational outreach activities and is currently Chair of the ASM Materials Education Foundation.
Neil Dagnall
Dr Neil Dagnall is a Professor in Applied Cognitive Psychology at Manchester Metropolitan University (MMU). His research focuses on applied aspects of cognition, particularly thinking style and cognitive-perceptual factors that influence scientifically unsubstantiated beliefs (i.e., belief in the paranormal, conspiratorial ideation, pseudo-science, and urban legends), decision-making, and behaviour change. Neil also has an interest in psychometric scale development and evaluation, which has resulted in recent publications examining the structure and best use of established psychological measures. Relatedly, Neil works also in the performance field, particularly the development of non-cognitive skills. This has resulted in associations with sporting organizations. Neil’s work is acknowledged internationally as demonstrated by his good publication record (150 plus peer reviewed articles), a history of attracting funding (e.g., Bial Research Fellowships), commercial enterprises (e.g., Knowledge Transfer Partnerships), and an outstanding record of public engagement and knowledge exchange.
Markus A Dahlem
Currently Guest Scientist at the Department of Physics at the Humboldt University, Berlin, Germany. Member of the Cardiovascular Physics Lab. Held formerly positions in the Department of Neurology at the University of Magdeburg (Germany) and in the Department of Psychology at the University of Stirling (Scotland, UK).
Anissa Daliry
Dr. Anissa Daliry is a biologist at the Federal College of Pernambuco (UFPE) and holds a master's degree and a PhD in cellular and molecular biology from FIOCRUZ and a postdoctoral degree from Biophysics/UFRJ. Dr. Anissa is a permanent professor of Cell and Molecular Biology program, IOC/FIOCRUZ (level 7/ CAPES) and young scientist of our state/FAPERJ (2021-2024). Her main research focus is to study molecular, physiological pathways and mechanisms involved in the development of cardiovascular and metabolic diseases such as obesity, metabolic syndrome, diabetes, hypertension, non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) and Chagas disease. She performs pre-clinical and clinical studies. She coordinates the postgraduate course "Cardiovascular and Metabolic Diseases: from bench to the bedside." She is a reviewer for 13 indexed international journals. Since 2020, she has collaborated in the Longitudinal Study of Brazilian Health, ELSA-BRASIL. She is also a member of the Liver Center and the Brazilian Society of Pharmacology and Experimental Therapeutics (SBFte). She develops projects in technological innovation with the development of a medical device for the quantification of hepatic steatosis. Dr. Anissa is a member of the research directory group entitled: Longitudinal Study of Adult Health - RJ/Fiocruz Research Center, coordinated by Dr. Rosane Griep/IOC and leader of the CNPq research group entitled: Study group on pathophysiology and therapy of chronic non-communicable and infectious diseases.
Mario Dalmaso
Prof. Mario Dalmaso is Associate Professor of Experimental Psychology at the University of Padova, Italy. His research interests include visual attention and perception.
Hans G Dam
I am a biological oceanographer currently interested in plankton ecology and evolution. Currently, I use evolutionary ecology approaches to study the response of planktonic populations of copepods and some phytoplankton to global change drivers. I am also interested in harmful algal blooms, particularly in the evolution of toxic prey defense mechanisms and predator tolerance or resistance to these prey.
