VLADIMIR N. UVERSKY is an Associate Professor at the Department
of Molecular Medicine at the University of South Florida (USF). He
obtained his academic degrees from Moscow Institute of Physics and
Technology (PhD in 1991) and from the Institute of Experimental and
Theoretical Biophysics, Russian Academy of Sciences (DSc in 1998).
He spent his early career working mostly on protein folding at the
Institute of Protein Research and Institute for Biological
Instrumentation, Russia. In 1998, he moved to the University of
California Santa Cruz where for six years he was studying protein
folding, misfolding, protein conformation diseases, and protein
intrinsic disorder phenomenon. In 2004, he was invited to join the
Indiana University School of Medicine as a Senior Research
Professor to work on intrinsically disordered proteins. Since 2010,
Professor Uversky is with USF, where he continues to study
intrinsically disordered proteins and protein folding and
misfolding processes. He has authored over 400 scientific
publications and edited several books and book series on protein
structure, function, folding and misfolding.

SONIA LONGHI is a Director of Research at the Center for the
National Scientific Research (CNRS). She obtained her academic
degree (PhD) from the University of Milan in 1993. She then went to
the Architecture and Function of Biological Macromolecules
laboratory (AFMB, UMR 6098, CNRS and Aix-Marseille University)
where she did postdoctoral work on protein crystallography. Since
2006, she has been heading the "Structural Disorder and Molecular
Recognition" group within the AFMB laboratory. She has authored
more than 70 scientific publications and edited a book on measles
virus nucleoprotein and coedited, with Prof. Vladimir Uversky, a
book entitled Instrumental Analysis of Intrinsically Disordered
Proteins (Wiley).
