Anton Bovier is Professor of Mathematics at the University of Bonn. His research concerns applications of probability theory in physics and biology, with a focus on statistical mechanics, metastability and ageing. He has published over 130 scientific papers, and a monograph on "Statistical Mechanics of Disordered Systems". He is a Fellow of the Institute for Mathematical Statistics. He is member of the Clusters of Excellence "Hausdorff Centre for Mathematics" and "ImmunoSensation", both at the University of Bonn.

Frank den Hollander is Professor of Mathematics at Leiden University. His research focuses on probability theory, statistical physics, population dynamics and complex networks. He has published over 150 scientific papers, and two monographs on "Large Deviations" and "Random Polymers". He is a member of the Royal Dutch Academy of Sciences, and a Fellow of the American Mathematical Society and of the Institute of Mathematical Statistics. He is recipient of a 5-year Advanced Grant by the European Research Council and a 10-year consortium grant by the Dutch Ministry of Education, Culture and Science.
