Jens Nielsen is a professor and director of Chalmers University of Technology (Sweden) since 2008. He obtained an MSc degree in Chemical Engineering and a PhD degree (1989) in Biochemical Engineering from the Technical University of Denmark (DTU), and after that, established his independent research group and was appointed a full‐time professor there in 1998. He was a Fulbright visiting professor at MIT in 1995–1996. At DTU, he founded and directed the Center for Microbial Biotechnology. Prof. Nielsen has published more than 350 research papers and coauthored more than 40 books, and he is the inventor of more than 50 patents. He has founded several companies that have raised more than 20 million in venture capital. He has received numerous Danish and international awards and is a member of the Academy of Technical Sciences (Denmark), the National Academy of Engineering (USA), the Royal Danish Academy of Science and Letters, the American Institute for Medical and Biological Engineering, and the Royal Swedish Academy of Engineering Sciences.
Gregory Stephanopoulos is the W.H. Dow Professor of Chemical Engineering at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT, USA) and Director of the MIT Metabolic Engineering Laboratory. He is also an instructor of bioengineering at Harvard Medical School (since 1997). He received his BS degree from the National Technical University of Athens and PhD from the University of Minnesota (USA). He has coauthored about 400 research papers and 50 patents, along with the first textbook on metabolic engineering. He has been recognized by numerous awards from the American Institute of Chemical Engineers (AIChE) (Wilhelm, Walker and Founders awards), American Chemical Society (ACS), Society of Industrial Microbiology (SIM), BIO (Washington Carver Award), the John Fritz Medal of the American Association of Engineering Societies, and others. In 2003, he was elected as a member of the National Academy of Engineering (USA) and in 2014 president of AIChE.
