Viviana Scognamiglio, a Molecular Biologist with a PhD in Industrial Biotechnology, is researcher at the National Research Council (CNR) in Rome, Italy. She has worked in research institutions and R&D companies, cooperating in several national and international projects dedicated to the development of biosensors for agrifood, environmental and biomedical application. She has experience in biochemistry and biophysics for the structural and functional characterisation of natural and synthetic biological entities for biosensing application, as well as for binding studies and interaction dynamics of macromolecules. She collaborated within Italian / European founded programmes such as Sensbyosin (FP7), Multibioplat (Eurotransbio), Multitask, BEEP-C-EN, Microbiosis, COST Action PHOTOTECH. She is author of 26 articles published in international scientific journals in the "peer reviewed", 4 book chapters, 15 oral presentations and 50 abstracts at national and international conferences.

Giuseppe Palleschi, has been the Head of the Department of Chemical Science and Technology of the University of Rome “Tor Vergata” since 1994. In 2000 he obtained the Laurea Honoris Causa from the University of Bucharest for his activity in the area of chemical sensors for food and environmental control. Prof. Palleschi’s research over the last 25 years has focused on the development of chemical sensors as well as bio- and immunosensors for use in the areas of biomedicine, food and environmental analysis. He is the author of more than 200 papers in international scientific journals and has served as coordinator of EU research projects, such as FAIR n.CT96 PL1092, INTAS 00-273, INCO ERB IC98 0906, QLK1-CT-2001-01617, EU Ocean 2013; and as collaborator of EU research projects, such as FAIR n. CT96 PL1095, INCO ERB IC98 0119, INCO ERB IC96 0804, EVK4-CT2000-00028, HPRN-CT-2002-00186, SSA.6FP INCO-ct-2004-003356, IP 6FP FOOD-CT-2004-06988.
