Giannis Mpourmpakis received a B.S. in Chemistry, an M.S. in Applied Molecular Spectroscopy, and a Ph.D. in Theoretical and Computational Chemistry from the University of Crete. He was then a post doctoral “Marie-Curie” research fellow at the Center for Catalytic Science and Technology (University of Delaware) for the outgoing phase, and then at the Institute of Electronic Structure and Laser of the Foundation for Research and Technology in Hellas, Greece, for the return phase. He then held a senior researcher position at the Catalysis Center for Energy Innovation at the University of Delaware before joining the University of Pittsburgh in 2013.
Robert “Rob” Coalson received both his B.A. in physics and chemistry and his Ph.D. in chemical physics from Harvard University. He was advised by Professor Martin Karplus who won the 2013 Nobel Prize in Chemistry. Rob Coalson joined the University of Pittsburgh in 1986 after a two-year post doc at the Los Alamos National Laboratory. He is now a Professor of both Physics and Chemistry. He had won several awards including the Chancellor's Distinguished Research Award, University of Pittsburgh in 2006 as well as numerous NSF grants to support his research.
Willian “Bill” Stanchina received his B.S.from the University of Notre Dame and his Ph.D. from the University of Southern California, both in Electrical Engineering. He then worked at HRL Laboratories (formerly Hughes Research Laboratories) for more than 20 years during which he became the Director of the Microelectronics Laboratory. There, he was directly involved in research, development, as well as low volume production. He also holds a patent. He finally joined the Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering of the University of Pittsburgh in 2005 as Professor and served as Department Chair for ten years.
