Matthew V. Tirrell (Co-Chair) is Dean of the College of Engineering at the University of California at Santa Barbara. He was previously Professor and Head of the Department of Chemical Engineering and Materials Science at the University of Minnesota, where he served as Director of its Biomedical Engineering Institute. He received a B.S. from Northwestern University and a Ph.D. from University of Massachusetts. His interests are in transport and interfacial properties of polymers, with particular emphasis on molecular-scale mechanical measurements, bioadhesion, and new materials development. He is a member of the National Academy of Engineering. 

Robert A. Brown is Warren K. Lewis Professor of Chemical Engineering and Provost at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. He received his B.S. (1973) and M.S. (1975) from the University of Texas, Austin, and his Ph.D. from the University of Minnesota in 1979. His research area is chemical engineering with specialization in fluid mechanics and transport phenomena, crystal growth from the melt, microdefect formation in semiconductors and viscoelastic fluids, bifurcation theory applied to transitions in flow problems, and finite element methods for nonlinear transport problems. He is a member of the National Academy of Engineering, the National Academy of Sciences, and the American Academy of Arts and Sciences.
