Autor

Valerica Raicu holds a PhD degree in Biophysics from the University of Bucharest, Romania. Between 1991 and 2004, he has held research and academic positions at the Institute of Physical Chemistry of the Romanian Academy (Bucharest, Romania), Kochi Medical School (Kochi, Japan), and the University of Toronto (Toronto, Canada). In 2004, Raicu joined the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee as an Assistant Professor of Physics. He is currently a Professor and Chair of the Physics Department and an adjunct faculty member in the Department of Biological Sciences. Professor Raicu has authored or co-authored over forty peer-reviewed papers and several book chapters on various topics in biophysics, soft condensed matter physics and photonics, as well as a book - "Integrated Molecular and Cellular Biophysics" (2008). Yuri Feldman is at the Department of Applied Physics, The Hebrew University of Jerusalem (HUJI). He received his M.S. degree in Radio Physics and the Ph.D. degree in Molecular Physics from the Kazan State University, USSR, in 1973 and 1981 respectively. From 1973 to 1991 he was with Laboratory of Molecular Biophysics of Kazan Institute of Biology of the Academy of Science of the USSR. Since 1991 he has been with the Hebrew University of Jerusalem, where he is currently the Full Professor and the Head of the Dielectric Spectroscopy Laboratory. His current interests include broadband dielectric spectroscopy in frequency and time domain; theory of dielectric polarization and relaxation; relaxation phenomena and strange kinetics in disordered materials; dielectric properties of biological systems. He is an internationally acknowledged expert in the area of soft condensed matter physics and dielectric spectroscopy.
