Douglas Gjerde received his PhD in analytical chemistry from Iowa State University (USA). After having worked in large and small companies for a number of years, Dr. Gjerde founded Sarasep (now merged into Transgenomic) in 1990 for the production and commercialization of nucleic acid separation technologies. He has authored and coauthored numerous articles and 4 books and holds nearly fifty patents in separation science.

Lee Hoang is a graduate of the University of California, Santa Cruz (USA) where he obtained a Ph.D. in Molecular Biology in 2006. He is now an applications scientist at PhyNexus in San Jose, a company specializing on protein purification that was founded by Douglas Gjerde.

David Hornby studied biochemistry at the University of Sheffield (UK). Since 1999 he is a full professor for Molecular Biology and Biotechnology at the same institution. He has also co-founded two start-up companies (Invector and Protealysis), based on novel technologies for RNA separation and stabilisation, for which he holds the patents. His current research focuses on RNAi biochemistry and proteomics technologies.
