Professor Hans von Holst received his Medical Doctor´s degree in 1976 at Karolinska Institutet and completed his specialist training in Neurosurgery 1982 at Karolinska University Hospital. In 1985 he earned his PhD when he also became Associate Professor in Neurosurgery, Clinical Neuroscience at Karolinska Institutet. Since 1988 he holds a position as Senior Physician in Neurosurgery at Karolinska University Hospital. During 1991-1996 he was appointed as Chairman of the Dept of Neurosurgery and Division Manager of the Neuroclinics at Karolinska University Hospital, respectively. From 1992 to 2006 he was appointed as chairman of the World Health Organization collaborating center for neurotrauma at Karolinska Institutet. Since 2003 he is Professor in Neuroengineering and Head of the Division of Neuroengineering at the Royal Institute of Technology in Stockholm. He has over 120 original research publications, book chapters and books.

Wiendelt Steenbergen obtained a master degree in aerospace engineering at the University of Technology in Delft. In 1995 he obtained a PhD degree in fluid dynamics at the Eindhoven University of Technology. His thesis concerned experimental and numerical studies into turbulent pipe flows with a decaying swirl. In 1995 he joined the University of Twente, Enschede (the Netherlands) as a postdoc in the Biophysical Engineering group, working on laser Doppler flowmetry in tissue. In 2000 he was appointed assistant professor in biomedical optics in 2000 and broadened his scope to low coherence interferometry and photoacoustic imaging. In 2002 he obtained a personal VIDI-grant of the Dutch organization of scientific research NWO. In 2007-2008 he was visiting researcher in the Kroto Institute of the University of Sheffield. In 2008 he was appointed associate professor, and in 2010 he became full professor and group leader of the newly formed Biomedical Photonic Imaging group in the MIRA Institute of Biomedical Technology and Technical Medicine of the University of Twente. In 2010 he also received a VICI-grant by NWO, which is the most prestigious personal grant that can be applied for in the Netherlands.
Currently his research focus is on optical and hybrid acoustic and optical techniques for quantifying and imaging vasculature and blood flow. Specific approaches are photoacoustic and acousto-optic imaging, fast laser Doppler perfusion imaging and low coherence approaches to quantify tissue perfusion. Disease areas of interest in his research are breast cancer, rheumatology, wound healing and skin diseases. He is technical scientific director of the Center for Medical Imaging North-East Netherlands (CMI-NEN). Wiendelt Steenbergen has (co-)authored >70 peer reviewed papers, has written 7 book chapters and is inventor of 5 patents. Apart from his research activities, he is involved in spin-off company PA Imaging BV that is commercializing photoacoustic mammography technology.
Prof. Dominique Pioletti received his Master in Physics from the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology Lausanne (known as EPFL) in 1992. He pursued his education in the same Institution and obtained his PhD in biomechanics in 1997. He developed original constitutive laws taking into account viscoelasticity in large deformations. Then he spent two years at UCSD as post-doc fellow acquiring know-how in cell and molecular biology. He was interested in particular to gene expression of bone cells in contact to orthopedic implant. From 2006 to 2013, he was an Assistant Professor at EPFL and since August 2013, was appointed Associate Professor of Biomechancis at EPFL. He is the director of the Laboratory of Biomechanical Orthopedics. His research topics include: Biomechanics of the musculoskeletal system; Mechano-transduction in bone; Development of orthopedic implant as drug delivery system; and Functional tissue engineering.
