L. Lacey Knowles is the Robert B. Payne Collegiate Professor at the Department of Ecology and Evolutionary Biology and Curator at the Museum of Zoology of the University of Michigan. She is widely known for her work on speciation and statistical phylogeography. Her research focuses on the processes that initiate or contribute to population divergence, and spans a wide range of temporal and spatial scales that have both ecological and evolutionary implications. She works on a diversity of empirical systems, as well as on methodological development.

Jérôme Chave is a Director of Research at CNRS and Deputy Director of the Research Unit EDB (Laboratoire Evolution et Diversité Biologique) in Toulouse, France. He is also the scientific director of the CNRS Nouragues Ecological Research Station, French Guiana. He studies the interactions among levels of ecological integration, focusing on tropical forests, which have long served as a testing ground for ecological theories. He is combining field research, molecular biology, and mathematical modeling to explore the mechanisms proposed to explain biodiversity, biogeochemical cycling, and macroevolutionary patterns.
