Associate professor, Università del Piemonte Orientale Sarah Gino is an expert witness of criminalistic sciences and forensic medicine for different law courts in Italy since 1994. Her scientific research is divided in two main areas. The first one is related to the field of forensic genetics and personal identification. In particular, she is carrying out population studies for forensic applications, analyses involving the identification of biological fluids and tissues in single samples and in mixtures by using immunochromatographic tests and mRNA analysis, and DNA extraction from unusual tissues. Furthermore, she is currently starting some collaborative studies on the application of the microbiome analysis in forensic fields, and the application of SNP panel for personal identification. Another line of research is related with the role of the forensic medicine and the forensic genetics for the management of the victims of gender violence, such as sexual abuse and maltreatment.

Scientific project officer, Joint Research Centre Samuel Carrara holds a Bachelor and a Master Degree cum laude in Mechanical Engineering (major: energy and mechanical plants) and a PhD in Technologies for Energy and the Environment, all from the University of Bergamo, Italy. After working as an energy engineer in the gas turbine field, in 2011 he joined Fondazione Eni Enrico Mattei (FEEM), an Italian research institute in the area of climate change and sustainable development, where he worked as an energy modeller until 2019, mostly focusing on the renewable energy modules. In early 2016 he was granted a Marie Skłodowska-Curie Global Fellowship by the European Commission, jointly developed at the University of California, Berkeley and at FEEM. His research project was titled “MERCURY – Modeling the European power sector evolution: low-carbon generation technologies (renewables, CCS, nuclear), the electric infrastructure and their role in the EU leadership in climate policy” (www.mercury-energy.eu). In 2019, he joined the Joint Research Centre of the European Commission in Petten, the Netherlands (Directorate C: Energy, Mobility and Climate – Unit C.7: Energy Transition Insights for Policy), where he carries out technical and policy analyses on raw materials and supply chains, mainly focusing on technologies for the green transition.
Frank U. Fletcher Chair in Law, Wake Forest University I've written ten books, contributed chapters to sixteen additional books, authored or co-authored over fifty-five articles. I am also the Vice-President and founding member of the Center for Progressive Reform (CPR), a nonprofit research and advocacy organization,Before coming to Wake Forest, I taught at the University of Kansas where I was a distinguished professor. I have also been a distinguished visitor at Oxford University, University of Padua, the law schools at the University of Texas and the University of North Carolina, and the School for Policy and Environmental Affairs (SPEA), University of Indiana, Bloomington. My latest book, coauthored by Joseph Tomain Dean Emeritus and Wilbert and Helen Ziegler Professor of Law in the University of Cincinnati College of Law, is How Government Built America, forthcoming from Cambridge University Press in June, 2024.
PhD student, Concordia Institute for Information Systems Engineering, Concordia University I'm a PhD student specializing in recommendation systems and their pivotal role within on-demand transit systems, particularly in suburban regions.
Postdoctoral fellow, Concordia Institute for Information Systems Engineering, Concordia University Mehdi is a postdoctoral fellow in sustainable mobility management at Concordia University. His research primarily focuses on the simulation and optimization of shared mobility and on-demand services, with a particular emphasis on advancing the design and implementation of on-demand transit and micro-transit solutions. Through his work, Mehdi seeks to drive innovation in transportation systems that promote efficiency, accessibility, and environmental sustainability.
Senior Lecturer, Lancaster Environment Centre, Lancaster University My research interest is in understanding coastal hydrodynamics, sediment transport and the resulting morphological changes; and in developing tools for coastal managers and consultants that can be used to predict of future changes. The real challenge is to describe and predict the complex processes around coastal structures and their influence on natural systems, such as shoreline changes, water quality and natural habitats. This is in line with current Foresight programme on coastal flooding and erosion, Water Framework directives (water quality and habitats) and development of the offshore sustainable energy devices.
