Richard Dick is an Ohio Eminent Scholar and Professor of Soil Microbial Ecology in the School of Environment and Natural Resources at The Ohio State University. His research focuses on the role and manipulation of microbial communities in controlling biogeochemical processes and delivering ecosystem services for agricultural and environmental applications. He has a long standing research program in soil enzymology that has resulted in the development of enzyme activities as sensitive indicators of soil quality and a comprehensive soil enzyme methods book published by the Soil Science Society of America. He is currently Editor-in-Chief of Applied Soil Ecology and President of the Soil Science Society of America.

Sibongile Mafu is currently an Assistant professor at the Department of Biochemistry and Molecular Biology, University of Massachusetts – Amherst. Dr. Mafu received her PhD from Iowa State University, USA (2013) followed by a postdoctoral research position at the University of California – Davis. My research focuses on understanding the biological chemistry of plant natural products primarily terpenes. This encompasses identification and biochemical functional characterization of the enzymes to decipher biosynthetic pathways and structure-function analysis of the enzymes to probe their mechanism of action. The research contributes to developing bio-based sustainable platforms for natural product biosynthesis.

Lianghui Ji got his first degree in 1984 in China before joining China National Rice Research Institute. He obtained his Ph.D under the supervision of Dr Peter Langridge at the University of Adelaide, Australia. He moved to Singapore in 1997 to take up a research fellowship working on plant-virus interaction with Dr Ding Shou-Wei and then briefly on functional genomics of Ustilago maydis with Dr Zhang Lian-Hui. He joined TLL in 2003 starting as a research associate and was promoted to Laboratory Manager shortly after. He became an Assistant Director in 2005. He is currently Director (SRP).

Henry M. Sobell completed his studies at Brooklyn Technical High School (1948-1952), Columbia College (1952-1956), and the University of Virginia School of Medicine (1956-1960). Instead of practicing clinical medicine, he then went to the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) to join Professor Alexander Rich in the Department of Biology (1960-1965), where, as a Helen Hay Whitney Postdoctoral Fellow, he learned the technique of single crystal X-ray analysis. He then joined the Chemistry Department at the University of Rochester, having been subsequently jointly appointed to both the Chemistry and Molecular Biophysics departments (the latter at the University of Rochester School of Medicine and Dentistry), becoming a full tenured Professor in both departments (1965-1993). He is now retired and living in the Adirondacks in New York, USA.
