David Bakewell received a B.E.E. in electrical engineering (first-class honours) from the University of Melbourne in 1983 and a Ph.D. from the University of Glasgow in 2003 for his research on dielectrophoresis of colloids and polyelectrolytes. He joined the Australian Telecommunications Commission in 1984, and from 1985 to 1996 he conducted research into the performance of radio and optical fibre digital transmission systems and networks. From 2002 to 2005 David was with the Beatson Cancer Research Laboratories, Bearsden, UK, where he developed statistical methods for improving microarray gene expression estimation. He is currently with the Department of Electrical Engineering and Electronics, University of Liverpool.



Professor Dan Nicolau holds the Chair in BioNanoEngineering in the Department of Electrical Engineering and Electronics at the University of Liverpool. He is also a Professorial Fellow at the Centre for Green Chemistry at Monash University, Melbourne, Australia. Dan is a Fellow of the International Society of Optical Engineering (SPIE), and has degrees in Chemical Engineering (Ph.D.), Cybernetics (M.Sc.), and Polymer Science and Engineering (M.Eng.). He has published 80 contributions in peer-reviewed scientific journals, a similar number of full papers in conference proceedings, and six book chapters. He has edited one book (with U. Muller; on microarray technology and applications), edited or co-edited the proceedings of 15 conferences (out of 20 that he has chaired since 2000), and was the Guest Editor of an issue of Biosensors & Bioelectronics. He is also an Editorial Board member of Journal of Bionanotechnology.
