Olivier Martin

Olivier J.F. Martin received the M.Sc. and Ph.D. degrees in physics in 1989 and 1994, respectively, from the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology, Lausanne (EPFL), Switzerland. In 1989, he joined IBM Zurich Research Laboratory, where he investigated thermal and optical properties of semiconductor laser diodes. Between 1994 and 1997 he was a research staff member at the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology, Zurich (ETHZ). In 1997 he received a Lecturer fellowship from the Swiss National Science Foundation (SNSF). During the period 1996-1999, he spent a year and a half in the U.S.A., as invited scientist at the University of California in San Diego (UCSD). In 2001 he received a Professorship grant from the SNSF and became Professor of Nano-Optics at the ETHZ. In 2003, he was appointed Professor of Nanophotonics and Optical Signal Processing at the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology, Lausanne (EPFL), where he is currently head of the Nanophotonics and Metrology Laboratory and Director of the Microengineering Section.

Charles Stuart

D'origine britannique, Charles Alexander Stuart est né à Newmachar (Ecosse) le 5 juin 1945. Il étudie les mathématiques à l'Université d'Aberdeen, où il obtient une licence (B.Sc.) en 1967, et à Oxford, où il a fait son doctorat (D.Phil) en 1970. De 1970 à 1974, il est lecteur au Département de mathématiques de l'Université du Sussex. Un congé lui permet de passer deux ans (1973-1975) à Genève, comme chercheur à l'Institut Battelle. Pendant l'année académique 1975-1976, il est lecteur à l'Université d'Aberdeen. Il est nommé professeur extraordinaire à l'EPFL en 1975 et professeur ordinaire en 1982. Il donne des cours d'analyse à plusieurs sections d'ingénieurs (1er cycle). Pour les 2e et 3e cycles, il traite les équations différentielles et l'analyse fonctionnelle. Ses recherches portent sur les mêmes branches; elles concernent surtout des problèmes de bifurcation qui se présentent dans la modélisation de phénomènes physiques. Il a passé un premier congé sabbatique (1982-1983) à l'Université de Heriot-Watt et un deuxième (1989-1990) à l'Université Cornell, aux Etats-Unis

Christophe Ancey

Christophe Ancey has both a PhD and an engineering degree granted by the Ecole Centrale de Paris and the Grenoble National Polytechnic Institute. Trained as a hydraulics engineer, he did his doctoral work under the supervision of Pierre Evesque from 1994 to 1997 on rheology of granular flows in simple shearing. He was recruited in 1998 as a researcher in rheology at the Cemagref as part of the Erosion Protection team directed by Jean-Pierre Feuvrier, which has since become the laboratoire "Storm Erosion, Snow and Avalanche Laboratory". Parallel to this research activity, with Claude Charlier He set up a consulting firm for engineering contracting called Toraval (www.toraval.fr), which has become the major player in the avalanche field in France. Since 2004, He is a fluid-mechanics professor at EPFL and he is the director of the Environmental Hydraulics Laboratory. He is associate editor of Water Resources Research, one of the leading journal in the field.
