José Luis Vázquez-Poletti
Half Spanish half Italian (fully European), José Luis is Ph.D. in Computer Science, teaches and researches in Universidad Complutense de Madrid in
Spain. Within the EGEE Project he is
working in Regional Coordination and Application Porting, and after 5 years of
Research on Grid Computing, now he is also moving towards Cloud Computing.
After trying to inform as best as possible and of course, having great fun in
previous GridCasts, he is back for more! |

Claire Devereux
Claire Devereux moved to the world of IT late in life after many years
spent trudging around muddy fields in welly boots conducting ecological
research. From lack of data, to a lack of data solutions, Claire now
manages the UK & Ireland regional consortium in the EGEE and NGS projects and is also involved in grid computing outreach and
dissemination activities. |

Dieter Kranzlmüller
Univ.-Prof. Dr. Dieter Kranzlmüller is full professor of computer science at
the Ludwig-Maximilians-Universität München (LMU) and member of the board of
the Leibniz Supercomputing Centre (LRZ) of the Bavarian Academy of Sciences
and Humanities. At present, he serves as Strategic Director for EGI_DS, the
European Grid Initiative Design Study and as Area Director Applications of
the Open Grid Forum (OGF). In addition, he is the German representative on
the EGI Council. |

Anna Cook
Anna holds a Masters degree in immunology, but having been rather disillusioned by the lack of communication skills of cells, bugs and viruses, she turned her attention to a more sociable job and has been managing the administration of the very sociable EGEE project for the last 5 years. In addition, she is a resource manager in the IT department, thus getting her fair share of daily communication with people. |

Owen Appleton
Owen Appleton started in the life sciences but escaped his lab coat to move into communication of science and technology. After some time at CERN working on various Grid-related activities he spent time with a PR company and as a freelancer before joining Emergence Tech Limited, a consultancy on new and emerging technologies. Among other things he is currently looking after outreach and exploitation for the European KnowARC project. |

Manuel Delfino
Manuel Delfino is the director of PIC in Barcelona which is the host
of EGEE09. He is also a professor at the Universitat Autònoma de
Barcelona. Manuel is a physicist with specialization in computational
science and has worked for 25 years in applying distributed computing
to science. Over the years he has worked in the USA and Europe and has
settled in the Barcelona area which he enjoys a lot. |

Paschalis Korosoglou
With a background in Computational Physics, Paschalis Korosoglou got involved in Grid Computing in 2006 when he joined the Grid Operations Centre at A.U.Th (Aristotle University of Thessaloniki) where he focused on Grid Application Porting. His main interests currently include optimization technics, parallel computing (MPI, OpenMP) and acceleration (GPU programming) of scientific applications. |

Gonzalo Merino
Gonzalo Merino graduated in physics in UBand got a PhD
in 2000 at IFAE, working with the ALEPH detector of the LEP accelerator at CERN. In 2001 he started working in scientific
computing, joining the EU-Datagrid project. In 2003 he joined PIC where he has been working ever since. He is currently PI
of the project funded by the Spanish government to deploy the Spanish
WLCG Tier-1. |

Michael Gindonis
Originally hailing from Toronto, Canada, Michael Gindonis has been involved in
the field of Grid Computing since the year 2000. While employed at the HIP
Technology Programme at CERN and then in Finland he coordinated and deployed
clusters and grid resources. Currently he lives in Finland and works as a
Grid System Specialist at CSC - IT Center for Science Ltd. |

Maite Barroso
Maite Barroso first joined CERN and started her grid involvement with the European DataGrid project, in the Fabric Management work package, where fabric tools presently in use like quattor and lemon were developed. After working in both EGEE and EGEEII she now has responsibility for the whole SA1 grid Operations activity in EGEE III. |
