Dr. Paul E. Smith is currently a full professor in chemistry at Kansas State University. His research interests have focused on the computer simulation of biological systems with an emphasis on preferential interactions, cosolvent effects on peptides and proteins, the design of improved force fields for simulation, and the statistical mechanics of solutions. He has published more than 100 papers in these areas.Dr. Enrico Matteoli officially retired in 2011, but continues his studies through an associate researcher position at IPCF-CNR (Institute of Chemical-Physical Processes) of Pisa. During his research activity, he has devoted his attention to the following fields: experimental and statistical thermodynamics of mixtures and dilute solutions, theories and theoretical models of mixtures, and kinetics of organic reactions. The results of his work have been published in about 100 articles in international journals, 5 chapters in books, and 120 communications to international and national conferences. Dr. John P. O’Connell is presently Harry Douglas Forsyth Professor at the University of Virginia. He has held visiting positions at Stanford University, Technical University of Denmark, Delft Technical University (NL), University of Canterbury (NZ), and Instituto Superior Tecnico (Lisbon). His research interests have included statistical mechanics, molecular simulation, and molecular thermodynamic modeling of chemical, electrolyte, and surfactant solutions, properties for computer-aided process design including carbon capture and thermochemical decomposition for hydrogen manufacture, adsorption and surface diffusion, chromatography for bioprocessing of proteins, and chemical engineering education. The results of his work have been published in more than 150 archival papers and book chapters, 5 coauthored books, and over 350 presentations to international conferences and academic, industrial, and govern
