 +Jerry Lawless is Distinguished Professor Emeritus in the Department of Statistics and Actuarial Science at the University of Waterloo. He was a faculty member there from 1972-2007, serving as Chair from 1979-84, and in 1987-88 and 2004-05. His research interests include biostatistics, industrial statistics, survival and event history analysis, reliability, and regression methodology. He is the author of numerous papers and the books Statistical Models and Methods for Lifetime Data (John Wiley and Sons, 1982; second edition, 2003) and The Statistical Analysis of Recurrent Events (with R.J. Cook, Springer, 2007).  He is a past editor of Technometrics and has served as a consultant to government, industry and the legal profession. He is a recipient of the Gold Medal of the Statistical Society of Canada and of the Shewhart Medal of the American Society for Quality, is a Fellow of the American Statistical Association, the Institute of Mathematical Statistics and the Royal Society of Canada, and is an Honorary Member of the Statistical Society of Canada.

 Catherine Huber is professor at the university of Paris Descartes, a member of the team 8145 of the National Center of Scientific Research (CNRS), and a member of the unit U1181 of the National Institute of Health and Medical Research (INSERM), specialized in Biostatistics, and she was during several years the head of the Biostatistics Research laboratory at this same university. She was an expert at the NSF in 2005 and 2007. She is a member of ISI and is associate editor of several journals, among which Lifetime Data Analysis and Journal Afrika Statistika, and is editor of several books in probability and statistics series by Birkhauser and Springer. Apart from her universitary cursus, she has done research for L'Oreal company, studying the hair lifetime and the agents that could impact it at the individual level. Though the main activity of this company is supposed to be cosmetology it  frequently keeps close to medicine (which drives some critics to the company), for example when they study the androgenetic alopecy. Several patents were obtained as results of this work.   Catherine Huber is professor at the university of Paris Descartes, a member of the team 8145 of the National Center of Scientific Research (CNRS), and a member of the unit U1181 of the National Institute of Health and Medical Research (INSERM), specialized in Biostatistics, and she was during several years the head of the Biostatistics Research laboratory at this same university.
