Victor Dotsenko (Personal webpage )Université Pierre et Marie CurieVictor Dotsenko is a Physicist that was born 13 July 1957 in Poltava, Ukraine. He was educated at the Moscow Physical Technical Institute between the years of 1974--1980. He completed his Doctor of Science degree in physics and mathematics in 1994. After completing his studies at Moscow Physical Technical Institute he began his research career at the Landau Institute for Theoretical Physics in Moscow where he stayed until 1999. He then moved to University Pierre and Marie Curie in Paris, France where he currently holds a position as a leading researcher. His scientific interests mainly concern the study of statistical physics of disordered systems. |

Christian von Ferber (Personal webpage )Coventry UniversityChristian von Ferber was born on May 15, 1961 in G\"ottingen, Germany. He completed his PhD at the University of Essen in 1993. His subsequent research was performed in several leading scientific centers, including Tel Aviv University, as a Fellow at the Minerva Foundation, and the universities of Dusseldorf and Freiburg. He was also a Guest Professor at the University of Linz and a Marie Curie Fellow at the University of Krakow. In 2003 he earned his Habilitation (Venia Legendi in Physics) at the University of Freiburg and now holds a privatdozent position in the university of Dusseldorf. Since 2006 he has worked at the Applied Mathematics Research Centre in Coventry University (UK), where now he holds a position as a Reader. The degree of Doctor Honoris Causa of the Institute of Condensed Matter Physics was conferred on Christian von Ferber in 2012. His scientific interests mainly concern soft matter physics and complex systems. Subjects of his analyses range from polymers, colloids and disordered magnets to transportation networks. |

Taras Yavors'kii (Personal webpage )Coventry UniversityTaras Yavors'kii studied physics at and earned his PhD from National University of Lviv, Ukraine, where he was developing the quantitative theory of critical phenomena in phi-4 field theories with complex symmetry order parameters. He then worked as a Research Associate and a Post-Doctoral Fellow at Universities in Hanover (Germany), Waterloo (Canada), Mainz (Germany) studying quantum and classical spin models on highly geometrically frustrated lattices. He was also employed as a consultant on high-performance GPU computing in molecular dynamics at the University of Waterloo. In 2013, he was appointed a Lecturer in Mathematics at Coventry University. He is an author of over 20 publications in peer-reviewed international professional journals garnering over 400 references to his work, including in journals of ``Science'' and ``Nature''. |
