Wilfred Tysoe
Distinguished Professor of Chemistry at the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee.
Distinguished Professor of Chemistry at the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee.
He received his Ph.D. degree in 1982 in Physical Chemistry at the University of Cambridge, England and worked as a post-doctoral researcher at the University of California, Berkeley, before moving to his present position at the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee in 1984. His research interests focus on chemical properties at surfaces with particular emphasis on understanding catalytic reactions both in ultrahigh vacuum and under realistic conditions and in the area of tribology to understand the interplay between lubricant chemistry and the resulting frictional and wear properties of reactively formed tribological films. He is an Editor in Chief of Tribology Letters, which he co-founded about ten years ago.

Gregory Sawyer
Professor, Distinguished Teaching Scholar, and N. C. Ebaugh Chair of Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering at the University of Florida
Professor, Distinguished Teaching Scholar, and N. C. Ebaugh Chair of Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering at the University of Florida
In 2009 he led a mission on the International Space Station performing the first exposed tribology experiments in low earth orbit. His is on the advisory board of the journals Tribology Letters and Biotribology. Recently, his work has focused on soft biological interfaces, mucin networks, and the peri-tumor niche. Professor Sawyer is a member of the National Academy of Inventors, and a fellow of the Society of Tribologists and Lubrication Engineers. He has published over 150 journal papers, and given numerous lectures around the world a prestigious lecture at TED8.
