Dr. William K. Smith is the Charles H. Babcock Chaired Professor in Botany at Wake Forest University. Dr.Smith received his BS and MS degrees from San Diego State University and his PhD from UCLA and was formerly a professor at the University of Wyoming. His research focuses on the adaptations of plants living in harsh and extreme environments, with a current focus on global change impacts. Current projects include studies of the global occurrence of the alpine treelines and the impacts of episodic, extreme events (e.g. hurricanes) on barrier island ecosystems. Based on the adaptive characteristics of individual species, projections about future survival are being evaluated. Dr. Smith has served on the editorial board of four international journals and has been lead editor on three books and co-edited a third, as well as authored over 250 refereed publications, received more than 40 NSF grants, and currently collaborates on a NSF treeline grant and leads the NSF-funded Coastal Barrier Island Network (CBIN) (www. coastalbarrierisland.org), a broad multidisciplinary group of scientists with expertise in ecology, geology, hydrology, economics, and cultural and political sciences.

Dr. Vyacheslav Martemyanov is working as the staff senior researcher in Institute of systematics and ecology of animals of Siberian branch of Russian academy of science, Laboratory of ecological parasitology. After graduating his higher education in Novosibirsk state agrarian university he defends the PhD theses in entomology deal with forest defoliators. Dr Martemyanov worked in University of Turku on postdoctoral position (in 2006, 2008 years) increasing his skill in the phytochemestry of woody plants. The present area of interests is the interactions within trophic chains of economically important species of herbivorous insects. Particularly he studies the effect chemical defence of woody plants on insects physiology, on insects immunocompetence and on the interaction between insects and its main parasites (viruses, bacteria, parasitoides). He is also interesting in evolution of insect-parasite interactions using Lymantria dispar-nucleopolyhedovirus as the model. The spatio-temporal distribution of the defoliators' genotypes and its relation with the ability of population to induce the outbreak is also the area of his interests.
