Andrea Koerdt is Senior Scientist and project leader of the MIC project at Bundesanstalt für Materialforschung und –prüfung (BAM), Germany. Since 2016 she has been conducting research at BAM on corrosive methanogenic archaea and sulfate reducing bacteria. She coordinates a team of scientists on MIC and collaborates with industrial and academic partners. She received her PhD from the Max Planck Institute for Terrestrial Microbiology.

Judit Knisz is Senior Research Scientist at the Faculty of Water Sciences, Ludovika University of Public Service, Hungary, where she leads the Environmental Microbiology Research Group. Her research focuses on MIC in drinking water and industrial cooling water systems, applying molecular and microbiological methods and advocating the multiple lines of evidence (MLOE) approach to improve diagnostics and mitigation. She holds a PhD in Biology from the University of Pécs, Hungary.

Scott Wade is Professor in the School of Engineering at Swinburne University of Technology, Australia. Prior to joining Swinburne University he held research positions at a number of universities in the UK and Australia where he worked on applied research including the development of sensing techniques and corrosion studies. He leads a research team investigating various aspects of corrosion, including microbiologically influenced corrosion, accelerated low water corrosion, corrosion sensing, and novel coating development.

Elisabete Silva is an Assistant Professor in the Department of Chemistry and Biochemistry, Faculty of Sciences, University of Lisbon, and head of the Bioactive and Multifunctional Materials Laboratory. She holds a PhD in Chemical Engineering from the University of Lisbon/Instituto Superior Técnico (December 2009). Since 2018, she has founded and leads the Bioactive and Multifunctional Materials Laboratory at FCUL, where, with her team develops multifunctional materials for environmental remediation, biofouling, and MIC prevention/control.
